Understanding the Significance of Median Research Teams in Idea Flow within a Community

The dataset contains 9 citations graphs obtained from the Web of Science. 3 graphs were generated for each of 3 research areas, including SWF (Switched-capacitor Filters), NLP (Natural Language Processing), and RTT (Real-Time Tracking). The study analyzes two facets: the contribution of different types of groups on the impact research ideas make on other groups, and the importance groups have in linking sets of groups with each other.
