Mathematica CDF documents

This is my first Mathematica cdf document on the Internet.
The most remarkable feature of a cdf document is that it can be posted on a web site and evaluated by anybody with a web browser and the freely available cdf player plugin.


Note.- Unfortunately, it only works on Windows and Mac.

Bibliographic Graphs Time-Line

Different colors for different publication dates. Dark green for the oldest to dark purple to the latest

• Key word: Bures measue

• Key word: Haar measure 

Bibliographic Graphs

Continuing with bibliographic graphs.
Here I combine the graphs from the Bures measure in green and the Haar measure in red, where the publications that are common in both are in orange

Bibliographic Graphs

I just made a Mathematica program to generate the citation graph for scientific academic publications given a specific keyword (and some upper limit on the number of publications to treat). Some examples for three areas of my own interest are shown below

• Key word: "Bures measure"

• The same job done for  "Haar measure" 

It seems that the research done for the "Haar measure" is made of several unconnected niches. However, I expect that they will find some connection as I let the program run for more time.

• One final example for "Quantum control"

Bibliographic research is now easier because I can put the mouse on the top of each node and see what paper is that. Something nice would be to output the whole bibtex file.

Acknowledgements: This program was made possible thanks to the help of my friend Josh Greig.

Extracting data from a pdf file

There are a few quite expensive commercial programs for extracting data from pdf files, but a few lines of Mathematica code may be able to do the job for most cases. For example, the following file with  many pages

results in the following table

Note.- This method works for text-searchable pdf files. Otherwise, this would be an image processing job.
