Abstract  

[Objective] This paper identifies emerging topics from multi-source data, and constructs a multivariable LSTM with bibliometric indicators to predict their popularity. [Methods] Firstly, we explored the topics of funded projects, papers and patents. Secondly, we identified the emerging ones based on their novelty, growth and persistence. Finally, we predicted these topics’ popularity with the multivariable LSTM model and indicators of funding amounts, number of fundings, average citation counts for each article, and number of patent IPC subclasses. [Results] We examined our new model with studies on solid oxide fuel cell, which yielded better performance than BP, KNN, SVM and univariate LSTM. Our model had the lowest MAE (16.534) and RMSE (23.494), as well as the highest R2 (0.642). [Limitations] We did not include each patent’s citation number because it was difficult to obtain specific data for each time window. [Conclusions] The modified LSMT could effectively predict the popularity of emerging topics.
