"Long tail" data are considered to be smaller, heterogeneous, researcher-held data, which present unique data management and scholarly communication challenges. These data are presumably concentrated within relatively lower-funded projects due to insufficient resources for curation. To better understand the nature and distribution of long tail data, we examine National Science Foundation (NSF) funding patterns using Latent Dirichlet Analysis (LDA) and bibliographic data. We also introduce the concept of "Topic Investment" to capture differences in topics across funding levels and to illuminate the distribution of funding across topics. This study uses the discipline of astronomy as a case study, overall exploring possible associations between topic, funding level and research output, with implications for research policy and practice. We find that while different topics demonstrate different funding levels and publication patterns, dynamics predicted by the "long tail" theoretical framework presented here can be observed within NSF-funded topics in astronomy.
Scholarly outputs of EU Research Funding Programs: Understanding differences between datasets of publications reported by grant holders and OpenAIRE Research Graph in H2020
将研究成果与赠款挂钩是有效监测和评估资助计划的必要先决条件。对于欧盟研究资助计划,有多个数据集将学术出版物与个人资助联系起来,包括开放数据和来自商业文献计量数据库的数据。在本文中,我们系统地比较了来自两个数据源的公开数据:一方面是赠款持有者报告的数据(随后由欧盟委员会在开放数据门户网站上发布),另一方面是来自OpenAIRE研究图表的数据,该图表收集了来自多个来源的数据。我们描述了导致其创建的数据流,并通过验证,在样本的基础上,链接<项目,出版物>来评估数据的质量。我们报告说,总的来说,OpenAIRE Research Graph提供了一个更完整的欧盟研究资助项目学术成果数据集。我们还确定了可能的改进,并就如何解决这些问题提出了建议。

Funding information in Web of Science: An updated overview
尽管Web of Science(WoS)中的资金确认(FA)数据存在局限性,但在过去几年中,使用FA信息的研究迅速增加。结合近年来WoS基金数据更新的实践,本文进一步考察了FA数据在WoS四个期刊引文索引中的特征和分布。研究表明,FA信息覆盖率的差异持续存在于所有四个引文指标的时间覆盖率,语言和文件类型。我们的证据表明,在人文社会科学研究的FA信息收集的改善。从以前的研究出发,我们认为,FA文本(FT)似乎不再是一个合适的字段检索和分析的资金信息,因为大量的文件只报告资助机构或在各自领域的资助号信息。以中文撰写的文章比其他非英文WoS出版物具有更高的FA出现率。这项更新的研究最后讨论了新的发现和实际指导,为未来的检索和分析资助的研究。

Reviewers' ratings and bibliometric indicators: hand in hand when assessing over research proposals?
同行审查制度由于其许多限制,特别是在资金分配方面,历来受到挑战。文献计量指标很可能是一种补充。目的:我们分析了同行的评级和文献计量学指标之间的关系,西班牙研究人员在2007年国家研发计划的23个研究领域。我们分析了2333个应用程序的同行评级。我们还收集了主要研究人员的研究成果和影响,并研究了被接受和被拒绝的申请之间的差异。我们使用了Web of Science数据库,重点关注2002-2006年期间。首先,我们分析了批准和拒绝的建议,考虑到一组给定的文献计量学指标,以测试是否有显着差异的分布。然后,我们应用多元逻辑回归分析,以确定是否文献计量指标可以解释自己的让步的赠款建议。63.4%的申请获得资助。被接受的建议的文献计量指标显示了更好的以前的性能比那些被拒绝的,但是同行评审和文献计量指标之间的相关性是非常异构的大多数领域。逻辑回归分析表明,在大多数情况下,解释研究提案获得批准的主要文献计量学指标是产出(发表文章的数量)和在期刊引用报告中排名第一的期刊上发表的论文数量。文献计量学指标预测赠款提案的让步至少以及同行评级。社会科学和教育是唯一没有发现相关性的领域,尽管这可能是由于Web of Science覆盖范围的限制。这些研究结果鼓励使用文献计量指标作为同行评议的补充,在大多数分析领域。
