Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for generating a research progression summary are provided. A research progression summary provides a snapshot of documents (e.g., articles) that have had a significant impact on a particular field of research, or at least a portion thereof, over time. Research progression sorts through all accessible relevant documents, analyzes the importance of each, and summarizes for presentation only those documents determined to be of particular importance with respect to a topic of interest (i.e., the particular field of research or some portion thereof). In this manner, a researcher can readily determine how the thinking with respect to a particular topic has progressed over time. By way of example only, the research progression summary may focus on one or more of historical developments in a particular field, current developments with respect to a topic of interest, or an overall summary of a particular field/topic.
