Table 1. Fraction of fields in the last 5 years.
Field | fraction in largest component | fraction in the network |
Agr | 13.9% | 12.2% |
Bio | 18.0% | 15.8% |
Hea | 26.3% | 24.1% |
Exa | 13.0% | 12.3% |
Hum | 5.9% | 8.9% |
Soc | 5.1% | 7.3% |
Eng | 6.5% | 6.5% |
Lin | 0.5% | 1.8% |
The network was constructed by projecting the bipartite network onto a network containing only reseachers connected if they share a paper published in the last 5 years. Sum of fractions is not 100% because the field information is not available for all researchers.
