bibliometrix (version 5.1.0)

Comprehensive Science Mapping Analysis

Description

Tool for quantitative research in scientometrics and bibliometrics. It implements the comprehensive workflow for science mapping analysis proposed in Aria M. and Cuccurullo C. (2017) . 'bibliometrix' provides various routines for importing bibliographic data from 'SCOPUS', 'Clarivate Analytics Web of Science' (), 'Digital Science Dimensions' (), 'OpenAlex' (), 'Cochrane Library' (), 'Lens' (), and 'PubMed' () databases, performing bibliometric analysis and building networks for co-citation, coupling, scientific collaboration and co-word analysis.
