Abstract

To solve the problems of the traditional scholarly communication system, global interest in the open access paradigm continues. Nevertheless, there is still a lack of research to understand global research and growth trends in the field of open access through data-based quantitative methods. This study aims to identify which sub-fields exist in open access and analyze how long each research field will grow in the future. To this end, topic modeling and growth curve analysis were applied to global academic papers in the field of open access. This study identified 14 research topics related to open access, open data, and open collaboration, which are three key elements of open science, and foresaw that the field of open access will grow over the next 65 years. The results of this study are expected to support researchers and policymakers in understanding global research trends of open access.

전통적인 학술 커뮤니케이션 체제의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 대안으로 오픈액세스 패러다임에 대한 국제적 관심과 확산이 지속되고 있다. 하지만 데이터 기반의 정량적인 방법을 통해 오픈액세스 분야의 글로벌한 동향이나 성장 추세를 파악하려는 노력은 아직까지 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 오픈액세스 분야의 학술논문 데이터에 토픽 모델링을 적용하여 세부 연구토픽을 식별하고, 성장곡선을 적합하여 각 연구토픽의 성숙도와 예상 잔여수명을 계산한다. 본 연구는 오픈 사이언스의 세 가지 핵심요소인 오픈액세스, 오픈데이터, 오픈협업과 관련된 14개 토픽들을 식별하였으며, 오픈액세스 분야가 앞으로 약 65년간 꾸준히 성장할 것으로 예상하였다. 본 연구의 분석 결과는 연구자들과 정책 의사결정자들이 오픈액세스 분야의 동향과 성장 추세를 이해하는 데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
