Citation context analysis
participants
goal
- To be able to derive new knowledge about papers and the relationships between them (and their authors), using automatically identified citations from publications
- Example application: A digest of all the contexts in which an author's work is cited, with the ability to filter by
- authors of those papers
- topics/concepts/faceted concepts ("entities") discussed in those papers
- This can lead to an indication of a particular author being influential (an expert) on a certain topic/field
have
- The functionality of PDFX for automatically identifying references and their citations in text, with only the PDF publication as input
need
- Ability to confidently determine the context of a citation, given its position in text
- A data model to define and offer the ability to work with citations as links between articles (i.e. know how to best use with them)
- Would be helpful to distinguish between different types of citations (e.g. by integrating the CiTaLO tool)
