In addition, the next generation SciVal Topics will have improved Topic names, provide greater granularity for large Topics and will include Topic summaries produced using generative AI. The methodology concept does not change where direct citation linkages are used to determine collections of publications that have strong links and so represent a field, or Topic with a common intellectual interest. The next Generation Topics will be launched on May 21st, at which point the current Topics and Topic Clusters will no longer be available.
