Yi Xiang is a PhD student from China. He is staying at Lancaster University Leipzig for his third year of PhD studies. His supervisor is Associate Professor Dr Jiang Wang.
His research topic is Scientometrics and part of Management Science. His thesis aims to use the natural language processing techniques to extract information from academic papers. That can help the researchers to recognize the value of a scientific inquiry. The thesis comprises 200 pages.
It is a relatively difficult task, but I think it is interesting because the research results can help society to better recognise the value of science and to become more familiar with the topic.
