Episode 38: Building search that researchers will actually use
Authors
Abstract
A discovery-systems engineer on relevance ranking, and why citation count is a poor default sort order. The analysis draws on a corpus assembled from institutional repositories, preprint servers and publisher metadata feeds, and the full dataset together with the code needed to reproduce every figure is deposited under a permissive licence. Limitations, including coverage gaps in non-English sources, are set out in the discussion.
