Abstract
Analysis of a dataset including a network of LED patents and their metadata is carried out using several methods in order to answer questions about the domain. We are interested in finding the relationship between the metadata and the network structure; for example, are central patents in the network produced by larger or smaller companies? We begin by exploring the structure of the network without any metadata, applying known techniques in citation analysis and a simple clustering scheme. These techinques are then combined with metadata analysis to draw preliminary conclusions about the dataset.
