Підсумок	Time-sliced bibliographic coupling divides a publication corpus into successive time windows and applies bibliographic coupling analysis within each window to track how research fronts emerge, shift, merge, or disappear across time. It transforms a static snapshot technique into a longitudinal tool for mapping the intellectual evolution of a scientific field, revealing when and how new thematic clusters appear in the literature.	Science mapping is a bibliometric visualization method that creates visual representations of research domains, showing the structure, development, and relationships of scientific fields. Using bibliographic data (citations, keywords, authors, journals), science mapping algorithms generate network diagrams where nodes represent documents, concepts, or authors and edges represent relationships (citation, collaboration, semantic similarity). The resulting maps make invisible intellectual structures visible, enabling researchers to understand field topology, identify emerging areas, and navigate disciplinary landscapes. Pioneered by Börner, Chen, and Boyack in the 2000s, science mapping has become a standard tool in research evaluation and strategic planning.
