A multiple k-means cluster ensemble framework for clustering citation trajectories

Joyita Chakraborty, Dinesh K. Pradhan, Subrata Nandi

Citation maturity time varies for different articles. However, the impact of all articles is measured in a fixed window. Clustering their citation trajectories helps understand the knowledge diffusion process and reveals that not all articles gain immediate success after publication. Moreover, clustering trajectories is necessary for paper impact recommendation algorithms. It is a challenging problem because citation time series exhibit significant variability due to non linear and non stationary characteristics. Prior works propose a set of arbitrary thresholds and a fixed rule based approach. All methods are primarily parameter dependent. Consequently, it leads to inconsistencies while defining similar trajectories and ambiguities regarding their specific number. Most studies only capture extreme trajectories. Thus, a generalised clustering framework is required. This paper proposes a feature based multiple k means cluster ensemble framework. 1,95,783 and 41,732 well cited articles from the Microsoft Academic Graph data are considered for clustering short term (10 year) and long term (30 year) trajectories, respectively. It has linear run time. Four distinct trajectories are obtained Early Rise Rapid Decline (2.2%), Early Rise Slow Decline (45%), Delayed Rise No Decline (53%), and Delayed Rise Slow Decline (0.8%). Individual trajectory differences for two different spans are studied. Most papers exhibit Early Rise Slow Decline and Delayed Rise No Decline patterns. The growth and decay times, cumulative citation distribution, and peak characteristics of individual trajectories are redefined empirically. A detailed comparative study reveals our proposed methodology can detect all distinct trajectory classes.

V-SAT: Video Subtitle Annotation Tool

Arpita Kundu, Joyita Chakraborty, Anindita Desarkar et al.

The surge of audiovisual content on streaming platforms and social media has heightened the demand for accurate and accessible subtitles. However, existing subtitle generation methods primarily speech-based transcription or OCR-based extraction suffer from several shortcomings, including poor synchronization, incorrect or harmful text, inconsistent formatting, inappropriate reading speeds, and the inability to adapt to dynamic audio-visual contexts. Current approaches often address isolated issues, leaving post-editing as a labor-intensive and time-consuming process. In this paper, we introduce V-SAT (Video Subtitle Annotation Tool), a unified framework that automatically detects and corrects a wide range of subtitle quality issues. By combining Large Language Models(LLMs), Vision-Language Models (VLMs), Image Processing, and Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), V-SAT leverages contextual cues from both audio and video. Subtitle quality improved, with the SUBER score reduced from 9.6 to 3.54 after resolving all language mode issues and F1-scores of ~0.80 for image mode issues. Human-in-the-loop validation ensures high-quality results, providing the first comprehensive solution for robust subtitle annotation.
