How do scientific disciplines evolve in applied sciences? The properties of scientific fission and ambidextrous scientific drivers [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 One of the fundamental questions in science is how scientific disciplines evolve and sustain progress in society. No studies to date allows us to explain the endogenous processes that support the evolution of scientific disciplines and emergence of new scientific fields in applied sciences of physics.

The UMAP Journal 36 (2015) 285-292, 2016 Statistics is running the risk of appearing irrelevant to today's undergraduate students. Today's undergraduate students are familiar with data science projects and they judge statistics against what they have seen. Statistics, especially at the introductory level, should take inspiration from data science so that the discipline is not seen as somehow ...

A new generation of science overlay maps with an application to the history of biosystematics [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 The paper proposes a text-mining based analytical framework aiming at the cognitive organization of complex scientific discourses. The approach is based on models recently developed in science mapping, being a generalization of the so-called Science Overlay Mapping methodology, referred to as Topic Overlay Mapping (TOM).
