The problem: how to measure scientific work? • There is no simple way to measure science • Methods of evaluation • Awards • Publications • Citations • How to gather information about scientific work?
Approach to the problem • Citations as a measure of science • Different databases as a source • Ontological problems with bibliometric data that need addressing: • homonym problem – different authors, but the same names • synonym problem – different spelling of a name of an author
Proposed solution to the problem • The Bibliometric Information System - data warehouse with bibliometric data • Dedicated adapters to gather data from different databases (such as ISI, DBLP) • Mechanisms to clean data and solve ontological problems
