1 Categorical and geographical separation in science Janusz A. Hołyst Julian Sienkiewicz Krzysztof Soja Peter M. A. Sloot Faculty of Physics, Warsaw University of Technology Computational Science, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands 9th November 2016 Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
2 Motivation & Data Motivation The scope of this study is to try to answer two very basic questions: 1 can one indicate a category (i.e., a scientific discipline) that has the greatest impact on the rank of the university? 2 do the best universities collaborate with the best ones only?

3 Motivation & Data Motivation The scope of this study is to try to answer two very basic questions: 1 can one indicate a category (i.e., a scientific discipline) that has the greatest impact on the rank of the university? 2 do the best universities collaborate with the best ones only? Data description Web of Science data from years , around realible records (articles), for each paper information about authors affiliations and Web of Science Category, categories have been aggregated (i.e., Physics, applied" > Physics"), Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
4 Correlation analysis For each of WoS 180 categories we calculate Spearman rank correlation ρ between the rank r i of the university (100 best universities from QS 2009 ranking) and the number of papers published by this university in the given category.

5 Correlation analysis For each of WoS 180 categories we calculate Spearman rank correlation ρ between the rank r i of the university (100 best universities from QS 2009 ranking) and the number of papers published by this university in the given category. Category N ρ Agriculture Biochemistry and Molecular Biology *** Chemistry *** Classics Computer Science ** Geography Geology Mathematics *** Multidisciplinary Sciences *** Physics *** Significance codes: *** p < 0.001, ** < p < 0.01, * 0.01 < p < 0.05, 0.05 <. < 0.1 Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
6 Correlation analysis Correlation vs category size for the majority of categories we observe (expected) negative correlation, there are, however, catgeories with significant number of papers characterized by negligible value of correlation ρ ρ Statistical significance 0.1 < p < < p < < p < < p < 0.01 p < N Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
7 Principal components analysis (PCA) How to identify key categories and their correlations? One option is to perform Principal Component Analysis (PCA) PCA finds new directions in space (new coordinates) that maximize variances of projected observations new directions are called components, in certain cases it allows for dimension reduction if few first components explain significant part of variance, PCA gives some options for the interpreatation of components Data Variance Components Test y 2 x 2 y1 x 1 Variances nd component Comp.1 Comp Test 1 1st component Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
8 Principal components analysis (PCA) PCA can be restriced to first 3 components (around 90% of variance explained, we use 10 largest categories), separate directions can be connected to principal components Cumulative St. Dev Component a nd component Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Biology Chemistry Kyoto University Ecole University Normale of Supeacuterieure, Tokyo Paris Physics ETH Zurich Cornell University University of Oxford Materials Science University of Cambridge Harvard University Imperial College London CALTECH MIT Australian National University of Edinburgh Johns University Yale Hopkins University of University National University of Singapore University NUSof Manchester McGill University Pennsylvania Neurosciences University Duke of University Chicago Stanford University University University of Michigan of Toronto UCL Medicine Princeton University Columbia University Kings College London Engineering University of Hong Kong Computer Science Psychology Carnegie Mellon st component 3 rd component Carnegie Mellon CALTECH Physics Ecole Normale Supeacuterieure, Paris Princeton University Australian National University Columbia University Neurosciences of Chicago Chemistry Psychology Kings College UCL London Yale University Stanford University University of Cambridge of Oxford University Johns University Hopkins MIT of Pennsylvania of ETH Edinburgh University Zurich University Duke of University of Toronto Michigan University McGill Imperial Harvard University of Cornell Manchester College University London University of Tokyo University of Hong Medicine Kong Computer Science Kyoto University Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Engineering Biology National University of Singapore NUS Materials Science rd 3 component st 1 component nd 2 component Technical sciences Medicine sciences 2 nd component Janusz A.

9 Network representation Network construction one can also analyze direct connections between any pair of universities i and j, a convienient way is to use collaboration matrix C ij : each element gives the number of common publications between i and j Algorithm of C ij construction 1 take 100 heighest ranked universities (u 1, u 2,..., u 100 ) 2 for u 1 search for its publications p 1 1, p 1 2,..., p 1 M, 3 if among the co-authors of p 1 1 there is any that comes from either of u j (j = 2,..., 100) set w 1j = 1, 4 the weight is increased by one each time u j is found among the publications of u 1, 5 change to u 2 and go step 2 etc 6 as an outcome we have a fully connected graph with weights w ij Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
10 Network representation Threshold concept to analyze community structure among the universities we use the concept of weight threshold, we keep only the connections with weight higher that a certain threshold w T such a procedure can be performed for an arbitrary value of w T, thus creating a set of unweighted networks Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
11 Network representation Graphs and their properites Graphs and their properites a graph (or a network) is a structure that consits of a set of nodes (vertices) connected by edges (links), here we consider undirected edges, the most fundamental feature is node degree the number of its neighbors Nodes & edges Node degree k i k 2 = 1 5 k 5 = 0 1 edge 1 k 1 = 3 node 3 4 k 3 = k 4 = 2 Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
12 Network representation Graphs and their properites each pair of nodes is connected by a shortest path (i.e., minimal number of hops to get from one node to another), clustering coefficient gives the ratio of existing edges among the neighbors of node i to the total possible number of edges among them, it is possible to calculate the average value over all the nodes (or all pairs of nodes) in the network obtaining e.g. global measures characterizing the whole network Shortest path l ij Clustering coefficient C i possible edge l 23 = C 1 = existing edge Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
13 Network representation Graphs and their properites to see the diversity of node degrees one can use entropy S of node degree distribution (global measure); very low entropy means that all have the same degree and vice versa, in order to check how the nodes connect (high degree high degree or low degree high degree) one uses assortativity coefficient r (Pearson correlation coefficient for all edges) Entropy k=k max S = p(k) ln p(k) k=k min Assortativity r = 1 2E 1 E i j ik i [ 1 ( i j i 2 + ki 2 2E ) [ 1 i (j i + k i ) ] 2 2E i (j i + k i ) ] 2 Janusz A. Hołyst et al. Categorical and geographical separation 9th November / 18
14 Network representation Graphs and their properites owing to weight threshold we can observe network properties for increasing w T, N(w T ) r(w T ) w T w T a d E(w T ) S/S max (w T ) w T w T b e C(w T ) <l>(w T ) w T 3.0 f c w T Janusz A.

20 Conclusions & Outlook Conclusions & Outlook the studied data show some signs of separation with respect to scientific category however, one needs to be careful as WoS is strongly biased towards science and probably underestimates humanities, in some categories there is higher (anti)correlation between the rank of the university and the number of published papers, universities tend to foster collaboration on a national level (or simply by the means of geographical proximity), The preprint can be found at arxiv: Janusz A.
