title="Authors">authors</a>. The system was introduced in January 2008 by <a href="/wiki/Thomson_Reuters_Corporation" class="mw-redirect" title="Thomson Reuters Corporation">Thomson Reuters Corporation</a>. </p><p>This unique identifier aims at solving the problem of <a href="/wiki/Author_identification" class="mw-redirect" title="Author identification">author identification</a> and correct attribution of works. In <a href="/wiki/Scientific_literature" title="Scientific literature">scientific</a> and <a href="/wiki/Academic_literature" class="mw-redirect" title="Academic literature">academic literature</a>, it is common to cite the name, surname, and initials of the authors of an article. However, there are sometimes authors with the same name, initials; or the journal may misspell names, resulting in several spellings for the same authors, and different authors with the same spelling. </p><p>Researchers can use ResearcherID to claim their published works and link their unique and persistent ResearcherID number to these works for correct attribution. In this way, they can also keep their publication list up to date and online. </p><p>The combined use of the <a href="/wiki/Digital_object_identifier" title="Digital object identifier">Digital Object Identifier</a> with the ResearcherID allows a unique association of authors and research articles. It can be used to link researchers with registered trials or identify colleagues and collaborators in the same field of research.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In April 2019, ResearcherID was integrated with <a href="/wiki/Publons" title="Publons">Publons</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> a <a href="/wiki/Clarivate_Analytics" class="mw-redirect" title="Clarivate Analytics">Clarivate Analytics</a> owned platform, where researchers can track their publications, peer reviewing activity, and journal editing work. With ResearcherID now hosted on Publons researchers can keep a more comprehensive view of their research output and contributions in one place.

As an interactive lab environment, researcherID makes it easier to reference literature for the research field and global use. </p><p>There are also problems with registration. Since authors complete their registration through self-identification, it becomes easier to have wrong or missing data. For example, the information of authors' geographic addresses is found to be missing in numbers of profiles among the disciplines of social science, arts and humanities. The missing information may slow the research process, for the users cannot compare specific authors with other researchers in the same region, states, countries, or continent.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This reduces the connection between individual authors and other institutions as well. Meanwhile, it may be misleading for external users while using the Web of Science. The Information can be assigned into different categories, and result in polarized judgements towards the authors and their literature. </p><p>While the issue of self-identification registration has been addressed, it is not all of the citations uploaded on the Web of Science that are counted towards the citation metrics, which affects the accuracy and reliability of this bibliographic networking platform. These citation metrics are suggested to represent the overall performance of the literature and its influence in relevant disciplines. The eventual data and analyses may vary when the authors' information is missing or not all papers are included.<sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In addition, there have been a number of empty profiles on the Web of Science with unclear reasons, and yet still are counted in statistics.
