Title
Releasing the power of digital metadata: examining large networks of co-related publications
Abstract
Bibliographic metadata plays a key role in scientic litera- ture, not only to summarise and establish the facts of the publication record, but also to track citations between pub- lications and hence to establish the impact of individual ar- ticles within the literature. Commercial secondary publish- ers have typically taken on the role of rekeying, mining and analysing this huge corpus of linked data, but as the primary literature has moved to the world of the digital repository, this task is now undertaken by new services such as Citeseer, Citebase or Google Scholar. As institutional and subject- based repositories proliferate and Open Access mandates increase, more of the literature will become openly avail- able in well managed data islands containing a much greater amount of detailed bibliometric metadata in formats such as RDF. Through the use of ecient extraction and inference techniques, complex relations between data items can be es- tablished. In this paper we explain the importance of the co-relation in enabling new techniques to rate the impact of a paper or author within a large corpus of publications.
