Information solutions provider Thomson Scientific, part of Thomson Corporation, US, and knowledge management and discovery software developer Collexis Holdings, Inc., US, have announced plans to join together Collexis' Knowledge Dashboard with Thomson Scientific's Web of Science to create a custom data mining solution for the research community.
Called the Thomson Collexis Dashboard, the new solution will provide enhanced knowledge discovery for the academic and government R&D communities. By merging Thomson Scientific's Web of Science data with the Collexis Knowledge Dashboard, users will have the ability to identify and search for documents, experts and trends, and make new discoveries more quickly, accurately and deeply than via conventional search engines.
The Thomson Collexis Dashboard is a custom software and information solution that will enable scientists to analyse large numbers of publications on a defined topic swiftly and efficiently, and filter the essential information. Additionally, it allows researchers to explore existing knowledge concepts and provides proactive suggestions about the direction of research across a topic or by category. It also includes multiple thesauri that allow different points of view on the same data and subject navigation.
A time-saving solution for scientists, the Thomson Collexis Dashboard includes summarised information which is not to be found in any system currently available. It provides identification of experts across categories on multiple subsets of the literature instantly.
