研究前沿(research fronts,RF)是指某一时刻正在关注的热点领域和涌现的具有发展潜力的研究方向.通过对研究前沿的研究,可以为研究人员提供所关注领域的研究动态,找到具有价值的研究方向或潜在研究领域.基于此,本文首先对研究前沿探测方法作了简单的阐述,借助CiteSpaceII软件的可视化分析能力,从被引文献关系和发展演化两个方面,对Research Fronts的研究前沿进行探索和分析,得出了Research Fronts的主要研究前沿和关注的方向,以及关键节点文章和具有影响力的研究人员.此外,我们还对利用CiteSpaceII软件分析研究前沿存在的不足进行了总结,对今后从中如何捕捉学科研究前沿做了展望.%Research Fronts is emerging thematic trends and surges of new topics, according to find out the research fronts, can provide for the researchers the newest information which be or she wants to know. Based on this, first, we introduced the existed methods to detect the research fronts in briefly ; and then, used the visualization software CiteSpaceⅡ to description the relationships of co-citation , the critical articles and important researchers would be listed. In addition, we also discussed the shortage of the software, and forecast the future application of the research fronts.
