数据发布共识与争议

将数据集作为一流的研究产品（验证，保存，引用和记入）纳入学术记录的运动已经缓慢推进了一段时间，但现在步伐正在加快。随着数据发布场所的激增，关于格式、流程和术语的重大争论仍在继续。在这里，我们概述了正在进行的数据发布计划和当前的对话，强调了共识点和仍在争论的问题。数据发布实现在各种因素上有所不同，包括文档的类型、文档相对于数据的位置以及数据的验证方式。出版商可以将数据作为期刊文章的补充材料，与描述性的“数据论文”一起或独立地呈现。使情况复杂化的是，不同的倡议和社区使用相同的术语来指代不同但重叠的概念。例如，“公布”一词意味着数据是公开的，几乎每个人都可以引用，但它可能意味着数据已经过同行评审。反过来，数据同行评审的含义远未定义;标准和流程涵盖了文献评审中使用的全部范围，加上一些新的变化。基本的数据引用是一个共识点，但是如果数据是动态的或者是一个更大的数据集的一部分，那么关于数据集引用的核心元素的一般协议就会磨损。即使数据发布正在被定义，一些人也在寻找其他隐喻，特别是“数据作为软件”，以解决更棘手的问题。
The movement to bring datasets into the scholarly record as first class research products (validated, preserved, cited, and credited) has been inching forward for some time, but now the pace is quickening. As data publication venues proliferate, significant debate continues over formats, processes, and terminology. Here, we present an overview of data publication initiatives underway and the current conversation, highlighting points of consensus and issues still in contention. Data publication implementations differ in a variety of factors, including the kind of documentation, the location of the documentation relative to the data, and how the data is validated. Publishers may present data as supplemental material to a journal article, with a descriptive “data paper,” or independently. Complicating the situation, different initiatives and communities use the same terms to refer to distinct but overlapping concepts. For instance, the term published means that the data is publicly available and citable to virtually everyone, but it may or may not imply that the data has been peer-reviewed. In turn, what is meant by data peer review is far from defined; standards and processes encompass the full range employed in reviewing the literature, plus some novel variations. Basic data citation is a point of consensus, but the general agreement on the core elements of a dataset citation frays if the data is dynamic or part of a larger set. Even as data publication is being defined, some are looking past publication to other metaphors, notably “data as software,” for solutions to the more stubborn problems.
