Context-sensitive Classification for Scientific Keywords in Grant Reports

In the task of institutional research (IR), it is important for each university to identify the latest trends in cutting-edge scientific research and to understand its own strengths. The Grantin-Aid for Scientific Research (KAKENHI), the largest research grant in Japan, makes publicly available the research outline, progress, and keywords of adopted research projects. These open data can be used to analyze research information in IR tasks. Our study in this paper focuses specifically on keyword analysis in research grant reports. Technical terms that describe scientific projects are important clues in analyzing research information. However, state-of-the-art terminology is not easy to process on computers because word occurrences and usages are often polysemous and unpredictable. To deal with this issue, we propose a method for disambiguating keywords by attaching a prefix to each keyword that takes into account the context in which the keyword appears. Such contextual prefixes are expected to enable useful searches for relevant keywords and automatic classification of keywords. Evaluation experiments on real data confirmed the effectiveness of our proposed method.
