项目摘要

Research organizations, data repositories, and universities are beginning to assign persistent web-accessible identifiers to scientific resources. Assigning these persistent identifiers serves two crucial purposes. First, they are assumed to increase the traceability and reusability of scientific resources by allowing data sets, software, and other resources to be cited within the scientific literature. Second, without such traceability, it is difficult, if not impossible, to develop tools to measure the impact such resources have within the communities they belong to, or to understand the spread of that impact. Significant progress has been made in the past few years in the development of recommendations, policies, and procedures for creating and promoting these citable identifiers. While these efforts have raised the awareness of citation principles, which primarily address solutions to this issue moving forward, little progress has been made in tracking how data sets and other digital resources have actually been identified and cited in the past. This project focuses on developing efficient and extensible computational approaches to such attribution tracking. This effort will inform broader efforts to understand how scientific communities benefit from the use of scientific resources, facilities, and services. Using a multifaceted experimental design, the project examines whether resources with persistent identifiers receive more attribution (through citations or acknowledgements) than those that do not. The research questions focus on the benefits of assigning persistent identifiers to scientific resources, namely, whether the overall citations of such resources increase, and whether the traceability of such citations of resources increased with resource persistent identifiers. The outcomes and contribution of this project center on providing insight into 1) whether human or computational approaches compare favorably in terms of their accuracy and efficiency in finding relevant references to scientific resources, 2) whether persistent identifiers provide quantifiable benefit in terms of increasing the amount a resource is referenced by users, and 3) whether persistent identifiers are being included in significant numbers in references to scientific resources.

研究机构、数据仓库和大学正开始为科学资源分配持久的网络可访问标识符。分配这些持久标识符有两个重要目的。首先，它们被认为通过允许在科学文献中引用数据集、软件和其他资源来增加科学资源的可追溯性和可重用性。其次，如果没有这种可追溯性，就很难(如果不是不可能)开发工具来衡量这些资源在其所属社区内产生的影响，或了解这种影响的传播情况。在过去几年中，在制定创建和推广这些可引用标识的建议、政策和程序方面取得了重大进展。虽然这些努力提高了人们对引用原则的认识，这些原则主要是解决这一问题的办法，但在跟踪数据集和其他数字资源过去是如何被识别和引用方面进展甚微。这个项目的重点是开发高效和可扩展的计算方法来进行这种归属跟踪。这一努力将促进更广泛的努力，以了解科学界如何从科学资源、设施和服务的使用中受益。使用多方面的实验设计，该项目检查具有持久标识的资源是否比没有持久标识的资源获得更多的归因(通过引用或确认)。研究问题集中在为科学资源分配持久标识的好处，即这种资源的总被引用是否增加，以及这种资源被引用的可追溯性是否随着资源持久标识的增加而增加。该项目的成果和贡献集中在提供以下方面的洞察：1)在寻找科学资源的相关引用方面，人类方法或计算方法是否在准确性和效率方面具有优势；2)永久标识符是否在增加用户引用资源的数量方面提供可量化的好处；以及3)永久标识符是否被大量包括在对科学资源的引用中。
