Great tutorial, Gary, how to initialize words, for example: australia to Australia inside the network.
Hey Aaron, please explain further what you require to do.
I have used the scopus for data mining.
WOW Gary you are fantastic; thank you very much for your deep description. I have a question, why do you use notepad++ instead of default notepad?
Glad it helped Hussam. I love Notepad++ as It has much more functionality than Notepad e.g. find and replace using regex
Hi Gary,
I hope you're doing well. I'm from Brazil, and I wanted to express my gratitude for the amazing tutorials you share on UA-cam. Your explanations are clear and thorough, and having subtitles in your videos is incredibly helpful for me.
However, I'm encountering a small issue regarding the "De" and "Da" prefixes while working on bibliometric analysis using the bibliometrix package in R. Despite following various tutorials and trying a few solutions on my own, I haven't been able to successfully remove these prefixes from author names.
Do you have any specific guidance or tips on how to address this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you once again for sharing your knowledge and being such a valuable source of learning.
I haven't come across this issue.. The software creators may be able to assist.
Hi Gary, Many thanks for the wonderful video. Is there a way to manually add some more records that are not identified/extracted by WoS?
Yes (but it's slow), by adding the new records to the file extracted by e.g. Scopus (you can do this with e.g. Notepad in Windows.
Thank you so much sir but I can't access web of science can u help me with that ?
Thank you for this very helpful video! :-)
I have one more question - can I only choose from the pre-selected databases (in the drop-down menu) or is it possible to import the files from other databases in the corresponding bibtex format?
As far as I'm aware, only the listed databases are accepted.
@@GaryEckstein Thanks for the quick reply!+
Unfortunately I don't have access to "Web of Science" & "Scopus" via my university library, so I collected my references from different databases (e.g. EBSCO & ResearchGate). My idea was therefore to merge everything into one BibTex file and upload it. Then I guess I will have to resort to VOSviewer :-D
Thank you Gary. In my PhD, I have the problem of having data (bibtext, etc.) from other sources defined in biblioshiny. I could not make the software except my data, spent lots of time for possible conversions, but, nah... still wondering if it is possible to have that data work somehow...
The problem is that the various databases export data in varying BibTeX fields; there is no consistency. You could manually change the fieldnames in your BibTeX fields to be consistent with e.g. Scopus, but this will be very time consuming.
Hi Gray, how I can upload Scopus and web of science at once in bibliometrix? or let's say marriage them?
Hi Husam, Scopus and WoS output .bib files with slightly different structures. It thus isn't possible, without considerable rework of the .bib files, to import files from both databases into bibliometrix simultaneously.
@@GaryEckstein thank you for your answer 🤩
Hello and Thanks for the video, I have a question ... which R version are you using ? thanks
I don't recall the version used in the video. I have noticed that updating both are necessary as there seems to be frequent incompatibility issues.
@@GaryEckstein yep, today I had to download R 4.1 like a new environment, then I downloaded Shiny ( I did it in this way install.packages("shiny", dependencies=True)) then in the same way, bibliometrix ... It worked 💪
what do you mean by error: reached elapsed time limit, error: Object, object and error: M ?
I haven't see this error previously. Contact bibliometrix and they may be able to assist.
Dear Gary, thank you very much for your instruction. Can I ask if we can combine different sources such as from WoS and SCOPUS for Bibliometrix analysis? Also I would like to manually remove duplicates and screening for eligibility in Endnote before applying Bibliometrix. How can we export Bib file from Endnote to do this?
Unfortunately EndNote, WoS, Scopus etc all use different fields in BibTeX files. As such it is complex to; 1) combine files from multiple databases for import and 2) import a .bib file exported from EndNote. If you view the .bib files exported from WoS and Scopus, for example, you'll notice how fields are used differently ☹️
Thanks so much @@GaryEckstein
Thank you for the fantastic video! It has been incredibly helpful, enabling me to conduct bibliometric analysis with ease on the search results exported from Web of Science and Scopus databases. However, my systematic literature review (SLR) comprises articles from four databases: Web of Science, Scopus, EBSCO, and ScienceDirect. I am wondering how to export bibloshiny supported files from these databases, merge them into a single dataset, and subsequently utilize it in BibloShiny for comprehensive bibliometric analysis. Thank you in advance for your response.
The issue is that the BIB file structures are slightly different for each service. TBH it will likely be very time-consuming trying to use data from unsupported BIB files.
Please, can you solve your problem?
I have the same.
Unfortunately there is no simple solution to this. This is the reason so many Bibliometric articles use a single database only
Thanks for your video. I could not download the most cited authors, most locally cited authors from biblioshiny, because it said my keywords and cited referenced are completely missing (100% missing). If you don't mind me sending you the screen shot to your mail or any platform you recommend. What do you recommend that I do?
Unfortunately I'm unable to assist with support. Please contact Bibliometrix
Thank you sir for this informative video.
I have one query I am trying to upload my data but it shows "input string 2 is invalid".
This usually occur when the upload parameters are incorrect e.g. you specify that the file is Scopus whereas it is WoS
Hi Gary. Thank you for your clean and clear presentation. However, I cannot search for documents on Web of Science. The document part is greyed. Do you have any idea how I can fix this?
You'll probably need to contact Web of Science regarding this issue.
@@GaryEckstein thx gary
If we can not access Web of Science because our affiliation is not subscribed, can someone recommend me another way to gather data? my field is ecology-related (ornithology and deforestation)
You'll need to contact Web of Science directly with your question.
is there a way to download all articles info from a specific journal rather than by using keywords?
I assume you mean from a database such as Scopus? Then, yes
Thanks Gary. Likely multiple databases will be used. I saw another video you did showing integration of Endnote and PRISMA. After that last filter, so you're down to your last list of documents you will be reviewing in detail, say 250. Can you run this list to create a bib file from Endnote (to then get all these great graphics from Bibliometrix) ?
That would sure be very handy but unfortunately EndNote exports .bib files in a way that Bibliometrix doesn't understand. You'd need to export from e.g. Scopus
@@GaryEckstein Thank you for this answer, really helpful. But what if, someone has a huge data of research article on ENDNOTE and want to do bibliometrix analysis?
I have had this exact issue on multiple occasions. I haven't found any solution unfortunately :(
@@GaryEckstein Thanks for the reply. One solution is to edit each (.bib) file in notepad++ and finally compiling as a one (.bib) file. *TIME CONSUMING* :P🥲
I am unable to download my trifield plot in Bibliometrix. The website hangs when I click the download button. Please help.
Please contact Bibliometrix support directly.
hello any recomendations to perform prior data cleaning to obtain better results in biblioshiny?
Hi David, I'm not sure what you mean by 'data cleaning'. Can you give an example of what cleaning may be needed?
@@GaryEckstein For example, a name of an author is written in different ways in different articles, like Rodriguez D and Rodriguez DE, biblioshiny recognized it as two different articles
@@davideugeniorodriguezfuent6141 yes, this is a big issue! Unfortunately I don't know any way of avoiding this sort of issue.
Thanks for your educative video, Gary; unfortunately, after loading my imported Bibtex file and clicking start, it showed an error indicating undefined columns. I am yet to figure out how to fix this.
This typically occurs where the incorrect database is selected when importing into Bibliometrix (e.g. WoS instead of Scopus). If this is not the issue then it may be necessary to export again from the database.
@@GaryEckstein Thanks for your insightful guidance. This is true, I imported the dataset from Science Direct, but I could not find the Science Direct name via Biblimetrix, so I think I selected a different database. I will try it again and give you feedback. Thanks once again
@@GaryEckstein I went back and followed the same process, and this time, I imported the data from Pubmed, and the same error about columns still occurred. This time, I did not interchange the name of the dataset as previously. Could it be my version of R, I am using the latest 4.4.0. Any further guidance will be appreciated. Many thanks
Hi Gary
I learned that you need a paid account at the web of science level in order to be able to do this whole thing. So is it mandatory to have paid for an account on web of science? Thank you for your help
If you're a student your university may have access to Web of Science.
@@GaryEckstein First of all Thank you a lot for Your help . So if not is there any other way to have access to web of science ? Thank you .
@@alphaalpha222 please check their website.
@@GaryEckstein Ok thank you so much 🙏.
HELP: when i click the import raw file, the browse button is not working
What OS and browser are you using?
I hv a data more than 50t rows is it possible to do analysis...
Try. Bibliometrix will let you know if there is a problem.
So that’s it?!! 😅 I paid a data analyst 100$ just for thisss!!
How much data can run in biblioshiny?...my data is around 70thousand
The software can definitely handle that volume. If your computer has a fast processor and adequate memory it should be fine.
It shows the maximum upload size exceeded... What shall I do now?any other good app for conducting bibliometric study with you 70thousand data?
@@taibazaid9509 thanks. That's interesting and not great. You could try the PyBibX python package.
Another thing ... are you using Bibliometrix as a Shiny app? If so, then try using Bibliometrix directly in R.
For some reason, the new bibliometrix version is the worst. I remember using 3.2.1 and it worked fine. The bibliometric coupling and other statistical technique is throwing some random stuff and all cluttered
Hi Imy. I've also notice some issues with newer releases :(
Dear Gary. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful, clear and extremely useful video. I could make most of it. However, now I am getting a message 'Cholmod error 'X and/or Y have wrong dimensions' at file ../MatrixOps/cholmod_sdmult.c, line 88' when trying to make a three field plot for Author Author Country and affiliation with a filter of 5. Though earlier I could make it, but this is not working now and I keep getting this message. Please help.
I usually see this sort of error where there is missing data. It's strange however if you're getting this error where the item you are accessing worked in the past. Perhaps try to update Bibliometrix - in RStudio click Tools - Check for Package Updates
I dont know why I cant run the three-field plot. Its caution: Error: Cholmod error 'X and/or Y have wrong dimensions' at file ../MatrixOps/cholmod_sdmult.c, line 88. Please help me
I haven't come across this error. Perhaps contact the software developers ...
Hello Gary, can I have your email address. TQ
Please ask any questions in the comments of this video.
am stuck. send me your email
Whenever I tried to update the library it shows the error as:
_______________________________________________
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘bibliometrix’ in get(Info[i, 1], envir = env):

In addition: Warning message:

_________________________________________________________________
Please help. before this everything has worked fine.
Mmmmm ... I'm not certain but perhaps try to reinstall R
@@GaryEckstein Hi Gary,
Yes did that too, couldn't solve that problem. Now I am doing the same process in different computer it is working fine.
