                                     Topic Correlation
                                     A valuable complement to characterizing publication trends for individual topics is  to
                                     compute the correlation between topics in the literature. A strong correlation occurs when
                                     a pair of topics is often mentioned in the same document, indicating a relationship between
                                     the topics. A weak correlation between topic pairs suggests that there is no relationship
                                     between them, or at least no recognized relationship.
