Knowledge graph enhanced citation recommendation model for patent examiners Scientometrics (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2024-03-11
Abstract In the face of a growing volume of patents, patent examiners grapple with prolonged examination cycles, prompting the need for more effective citation recommendations. To address this, we introduce the patent knowledge graph embedded in Bert (PK-Bert) model. This innovation combines a patent knowledge graph with semantic information in an advanced Transformer framework, outperforming conventional

Skewed distributions of scientists’ productivity: a research program for the empirical analysis Scientometrics (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2024-03-01
Abstract Only a few scientists are able to publish a substantial number of papers every year; most of the scientists have an output of only a few publications or no publications at all. Several theories (e.g., the “sacred spark” theory) have been proposed in the past to explain these productivity differences that are complementary and focus on different aspects in the publication process. This study

Analysis on open data as a foundation for data-driven research Scientometrics (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2024-03-01
Abstract Open Data, one of the key elements of Open Science, serves as a foundation for “data-driven research” and has been promoted in many countries. However, the current status of the use of publicly available data consisting of Open Data in new research styles and the impact of such use remains unclear. Following a comparative analysis in terms of the coverage with the OpenAIRE Graph, we analyzed

The phenomenon of plagiarism in peer-review evaluation reports remained surprisingly unrecognized, despite a notable rise of such cases in recent years. This study reports multiple cases of peer-review plagiarism recently detected in 50 different scientific articles published in 19 journals. Their in-depth analysis reveals that such reviews tend to be nonsensical, vague and unrelated to the actual

Research topic switch and its relation to appointment as university leader Scientometrics (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2024-02-23
Abstract Researchers switch research topics for various reasons. Little attention has been given to whether topic switching occurs after an administrative appointment. This study examines the determinants of topic switch among Russian university leaders from 1985 to 2020. Two approaches are used: analysing changes in publication focus and comparing publications before and after appointment to assess

Citations to papers published in European Science Editing from 2020 to 2022: assessment using Scopus, Dimensions, Google Scholar, and Altmetrics Scientometrics (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2024-02-08 Jaime A. Teixeira da Silva
A recent paper published in European Science Editing (ESE; https://doi.org/10.3897/ese.2023.e102691) assessed that journal’s citations in 38 papers published between 2020 and 2022 using Dimensions and Scopus. The rationale for that study was that Dimensions, unlike Scopus, was “free”, and thus a useful substitute for bibliometric analyses, but it is contended herein that the latter claim is not entirely
