ResearchRabbit is a new tool for literature exploration and mapping. As hinted by its name, this tool aims to give you a leg up down the research rabbit hole.

The Library is now trialing scite.ai, a smart citation index that displays the context of citations and classifies their intent using AI. Read the blog to learn how it works and its key features.

Last week, Web of Science rolled out a new interface. As it is one of the most heavily used e-resources, here we highlight some of the noteworthy new features.

IEEE DataPort is an online data repository developed by IEEE. This post is a preliminary review of this relatively new offering. Potential issues on access and deposit of datasets are highlighted.

Altmetrics are new measures of impact by capturing online mentioning of research outputs such as papers and datasets. Altmetric Explorer, Plum Analytics and Impactstory are some popular altmetrics tools, and the Library has recently started a subscription to Altmetric Explorer. In this post, you will learn more about Altmetric Explorer.

Unlike traditional citation databases which would yield results by keyword or topic search, Inciteful creates a graph of academic papers based on “seed papers” of your choice and helps you gain insight from it.

Google Dataset Search is a new search engine which allows you to search for datasets hosted in thousands of repositories across the Web.

Last week, we briefly introduced a number of visualization tools for citation network. In this post, we will demonstrate how to use VOSviewer to create a bibliometric visualization for HKUST research network.

Research evaluation measures research quality in several dimensions, such as research projects, researchers, institutions, research output and impact, and more.

VOSviewer is a popular software that visualizes connections between research works. You can use it to create networks of term co-occurrence. Here is a very good training video that guides you to do that.
