The PUSHPIN projectSupporting Scholarly Awareness in Publications and Social Networks

structured analysis of scientific publications

analysis of the resulting research networks

analysis of social interactions in a controlled environment

considering scientific communication and collaboration as research network

Dr. Wolfgang Reinhardt | wolle@upb.de | @wollepb | http://isitjustme.de

see previous talk

Awareness

stemming from - interactions in social networks, - jointly authored publications,- social tagging,- organisational belonging

Research Networks

Dr. Wolfgang Reinhardt | wolle@upb.de | @wollepb | http://isitjustme.de

Goals of the PUSHPIN projectmake researchers aware of their connections, strong and weak ties

provide them with useful recommendations

peers with similar interests

people that cite similar publications

publications that deal with similar content

what is my group doing?

ubiquitous access to the data

Dr. Wolfgang Reinhardt | wolle@upb.de | @wollepb | http://isitjustme.de

three entry points1. Web application2. Mobile application (Android smartphones)3. Tabletop application

So far ...just entered alpha testing

feedback so far is positive but no evaluation yet

software engineering issues

big data is actually really hard

data quality issues

metadata extraction, references, author names

Dr. Wolfgang Reinhardt | wolle@upb.de | @wollepb | http://isitjustme.de

Outlookrecommender system improvement

connect near-copy detection module

develop better author name disambiguation

include early user feedback

continuously engage people to use the system

create added value for them
