Abstract

This study investigated the influence between industry and scholarly communication with the comparative analysis of patterns using a large scale dataset on biometric information. To identify whether patterns of cutting edge development in industry affects, are affected by, and/or are studied in parallel with scholarly communication over time, trending topics, word frequency occurrences, and temporal burst detection over time were conducted to assess prominent terms. Patents published in USPTO from 1790 to 2014 were analyzed to represent industry, and published documents such as peer-reviewed journals, conference proceedings and ebooks from both Thomson Reuters Web of Science and IEEE Xplore were analyzed to represent scholarly communication. The results of this study revealed that (1) there are matching trends in the number of publications, (2) transformation points in time are detected using the temporal burst analysis, and (3) patterns of cutting edge developments in industry might not affect, be affected by, and/or develop in parallel with scholarly communication over time in biometric literature.
