[Tex/LaTex] Changing biblatex style for one slide

beamerbiblatex

In a presentation created with the beamer class, I'm using

\usepackage[style=verbose,backend=bibtex]{biblatex}

and 

\footcite{source}

style=verbose is required so that author, title and so on show up in the foot note and not just a number indicating the source.

However, on one slide a give an overview of different algorithms, which requires a lot of citations. Only for this slide I'd like to use \cite, which should give me e.g. [1] in the text, but no footnote. The problem is that thanks to style=verbose, \cite inserts author, title and so on instead of a short number.

How can I fix this?

Just change your implementation of biblatex to

\usepackage[style=numeric-comp,backend=bibtex]{biblatex}

Then you can cite on the overview slide with

\cite{<key>}

or

\autocite{<key>}

if you want to specify style commands as options in the preamble, e.g.

\usepackage[style=numeric-comp,
            autocite=superscript, % apply options here
            backend=bibtex]{biblatex}

And when a full citation is necessary you can cite with

\footfullcite{<key>}
