Research On Knowledge Diffusion In Crowdsourcing Based On Citation Analysis

Knowledge diffusion is a continuous and dynamic process that plays an important role in conveying the changes in the field of disciplines and promoting the development of science.With the development of science and the advent of knowledge economy,massive literature is constantly emerging,making the way of knowledge diffusion,process,etc.have undergone great changes.From the perspective of citation,the paper analyzes the whole process of knowledge diffusion and accurately grasps the development characteristics of disciplines.In this case it is more appropriate to use citation analysis to study the diffusion of knowledge in a continuous,dynamic science.In recent years,with the development of Internet technology,the field of crowdsourcing has gradually attracted the attention of all walks of life.It is of great significance to grasp the development direction of crowdsourcing by analyzing the evolution of knowledge diffusion in crowdsourcing in our country.Based on the related theories of knowledge diffusion,social network analysis and main path analysis and the research achievements of scholars at home and abroad on the citation network and knowledge diffusion,this paper,based on the research of crowdsourcing published by core journals from 2006 to 2016.Through empirical analysis on the process of knowledge diffusion in China's crowdsourcing,with a view to grasp the essence and law of knowledge diffusion in the field of crowdsourcing in our country,and understand the evolution of knowledge diffusion in the field of crowdsourcing.Based on the introduction of the theory of knowledge diffusion,this paper analyzes and studies the status quo of knowledge diffusion in crowdsourcing based on the number of published research papers,the distribution of disciplines and the speed and breadth of knowledge diffusion.Judging from the trend of development,although the research on crowdsourcing in our country is still in the stage of growth,the domestic scholars pay more and more attention to the relevant research in the field of crowdsourcing,and the speed and breadth of knowledge diffusion are also deepening.Secondly,based on the construction of citation network.using the social network analysis method and calculating the index of network characteristics,based on the analysis of citation network characteristics in the field of crowdsourcing,and uses the main path analysis method to get the crowdsourcing field related knowledge diffusion path were studied.The research shows that the current knowledge of crowdsourcing mainly spreads along two paths.The first path of knowledge diffusion focuses on the crowdsourcing application in the enterprise.The second approach focuses on the application of crowdsourcing in the field of libraries.
