Abstract

The aim of this article is to demonstrate some of the possible uses of a novel set of metrics called Semantometrics in relation to the role of "bridges" in scholarly publication networks. In contrast to the existing metrics such as Bibliometrics, Altmetrics or Webometrics, which are based on measuring the number of interactions in the scholarly network, Semantometrics build on the premise that full-text is needed to understand scholarly publication networks and the value of publications.
