Abstract

[Purpose/Significance] Academic genealogy is closely related to knowledge inheritance, with diachronic, systematic, and evaluative functions, containing a large amount of exploitable information and value. This paper systematically combs the relevant research on academic genealogy of scientists, aiming to reveal the value and potential of academic genealogy and provide reference for relevant research and practice development. [Method/Process] This paper analyzed the connotation of academic genealogy, summarized the academic genealogy construction method from the aspects of data collection, recognition of advisor–advisee relationship and visualization of results, and analyzed the current academic genealogy measurement research from measurement indicators, methods and measurement applications. [Result/Conclusion] Academic genealogy has important research value and potential in multiple research fields, including information science. In the future, we should focus on data sources, platform construction and theme expansion.

Key words： academic genealogy; genealogy connotation; genealogy construction; genealogy measurement
