inverse document frequency; modified tf-idf; technology specific terms 

Abstract: The objective of this contribution is the identification of 
relevant terms for emerging technologies. We take the case of 
Magnetoelectronic. The basis of our analysis is scientific literature in 
this field. We present three modifications of the well know indicator term 
frequency inverse documents frequency (tf-idf). At the beginning, of the 
scientific / technology field very particular terms describe "exotic" 
research. These keywords occur only in a small spectrum of documents. Over 
the time physical laws, materials and methods establish and the 
corresponding terms come up in a lot of documents and technologies. We 
used different modifications of the tf-idf to identify these different 
terms
