Abstract :
Finding similar journals within a large amount of existing ones is not a trivial task. Based on the hypothesis that similar journals publish similar articles, we propose in this paper a scalable method based on random projection to calculate the similarities between 35K journals based on 67 millions articles published with them. We evaluate our results against Dewey Decimal codes and analyse the networks of similar journals.
