Matching Publications to People
• Disambiguation
– Probability/clusters (based on name, co-authors, title words, journals,
keywords, affiliations, grants/trials, co-citation, email address)
– Heuristics (scoring systems)
– Name complexity (married names, foreign characters, nicknames, multipart names, MEDLINE has first name starting 2002)
– Free Pubmed disambiguation web service:
• http://profiles.catalyst.harvard.edu/software
– Elsevier's SciVal Author Profile Refinement Services:
• http://info.scival.com/scival-consultation-request
• Deduplication
– Same publication appears in PubMed, Web of Science, DSpace, etc., but
with different information
• ORCID.org (Open Researcher and Contributer ID)
– Creating a unique identifier for all authors. Adoption rate?
