Online Citation Analysis

We currently develop the Online Citation Service (OCS), a new system for online citation analysis of computer science research. For any set of DBLP publications, it retrieves and integrates citation data on demand from four different data sources: Google Scholar, Microsoft Libra, ACM Digital Library, and Citeseer. A set of search query generators is provided to efficiently retrieve relevant citation data and to iteratively refine search results for improved data quality.

Prototypes:

• OCS 1.0 (publicly available; restricted to Google Scholar; only publication lists for one author or for one venue can be analyzed)
• OCS 2.0 (currently only for internal use)

Demonstration video:

• MPEG-4 (mp4) (8 MB)
• Google Video (small-sized)

Project Members

• Prof. Dr. Erhard Rahm
• Andreas Thor
• David Aumueller
• Hanna Köpcke
