Goals
- Harvest data from open APIs for individuals, includes claiming interface and production of triples for VIVO. In future, same can be done for a paid subscription (such as WoS and Scopus).
Description
OpenHarvesters harvest publications metadata from different open source databases (CrossRef, PubMed and DBLP) and identify publications for a scholar. Name of the author can be mentioned differently, in the citation data of a publication of a source. For example, "Dean Blackmar Krafft", "Dean B. Krafft", "Dean Krafft", "DB Krafft", "D. Krafft" etc. These name variations make it harder to identify publications for a scholar using a named "search string". OpenHarvester tries to learn from the claim publications as well as from the existing citation data of a claimed article. Claimed publications can be stored in CSV, TXT, PDF and VIVO-Model format. Currently, no work is done in regards to "performance improvement" but on identification of correct publications.
Features
- User will download the zip folder on their system, unzip it and run it on their own system. Hope is to transform this application into a web application in the near future.
