Hello,
I tried several times to make an Epic Epoch (to visualize the first 5 most used keywords in each article for each year, from 2010 to 2021), but it doesn’t work, I think it’s a data organization problem?!
Cdlt,

Dear Sofiane,
I just tried Epic Epoc script on one of our test datasets, and it worked perfectly fine.
Could you describe a little more what are you facing?
- Write a title that summarizes the specific problem
- Introduce the problem before you post your question
- Help others reproduce the problem: corpus format, variable(s) used, parameters…
Best,
Lionel

I downloaded my data set from Scopus (102 document results) csv file.

The best way to take benefit of Scopus data, required to export a RIS file. RIS is a standardized format to store bibliographical data. In that case, just use the RIS (Scopus) option during the parsing step in CorText Manager.
Otherwize, when exporting a csv from Scopus, and using the robust csv option for the parsing step, make sure to define the Time Field option. Otherwise Scripts that supposed to perform temporal analysis (as Epic Epoc) won’t work.
I hope it helps
