Statistical Features
A new feature in the MOGADOC database enables statistical analyses, which
can be applied either in the same or in different search fields.
An example for the first case is the question with whom a particular author
(e.g. M. Winnewisser) has published common papers.
After the retrieval of the desired author name in the search mask you have to select the search field Author(s)
and click the INDEX button. The complete index is opened and the icon is activated for the
statistical analysis.
After clicking this icon, selecting the maximum size of the resulting
index in the drop-down menu at the top of the window and pressing the OK button, a new
index list with M. Winnewisser's co-authors is displayed. In the background the Boolean
operator AND is applied. In the resulting list the first column informs about the absolute
number of hits, whereas the second column (in parentheses) gives the percentage of hits.
