Abstract

In this paper, we study the relationship between fundamental articles and new topics and present a new method to detect recently formed topics and its typical articles simultaneously. Based on community partition, the proposed method first identifies the emergence of a new theme by tracking the change of the community where the top cited nodes lie. Next, the paper with a high citation number belonging to this new topic is recognized as a fundamental article. Experimental results on real dataset show that our method can detect new topics with only a subset of data in a timely manner, and the identified papers for these topics are found to have a long lifespan and keep receiving citations in the future.
