The current InfluenceMap is based on the OpenAlex 2023-08-18 release, replacing the previously used <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/microsoft-academic-graph/">Microsoft Academic Graph (MAG)</a>, which was retired in December 2021. <p></p> In a nutshell, the whole dataset contains: <li>243 million scientific publications from as early as the 1800s.</li> <li>92 million authors and 102 thousand institutions identified by OpenAlex.</li> <li>65 thousand concepts (fields of study), such as "labour economics" and "algorithms".</li> <li>1.85 billion citation links between publications.</li> <p></p> The transition to OpenAlex offers access to an expanded dataset, enhancing the availability and accuracy of influence statistics. However, some papers and authors may have missing data due to indexing delays or challenges with name entity resolution. Additionally, scoring is based on a dataset snapshot, while entity names are retrieved directly from the OpenAlex API, potentially causing occasional discrepancies between API results and scoring data. </div> </div> <div class="project-info" style="margin-top: 30;padding-bottom:0"> <div class="row detail"> <div class="col-sm-5" style="padding-top: 30px"> <iframe width="100%" height="330" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/uZDJe0EZEjM" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div> <div class="col-sm-7" style="padding-left: 10%"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-12 detail-box" style="padding-bottom: 20px; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd"> <div class="logo"> <img src="/images/influencemap_logo_network.svg"> </div> The influencemap project is supported by <a href=https://cecs.anu.edu.au/>ANU College of Engineering and Computer Science</a>, and <a href=http://www.sigmm.org/>ACM SIGMM</a>.
