WG4. Shared resources and infrastructure to analyze scholarly outputs

The working group aims to develop a collective framework for extracting and sharing essential metadata from scientific publications, such as author affiliation, data use, software sharing, funding, etc. Its main objectives are to:

• Foster the use of state-of-the-art open source tools for extracting information from full text;
• Encourage the sharing of the extracted metadata within a framework consistent with full-text access licenses;
• Meet the considerable computing and storage requirements via resource pooling mechanisms.

The ultimate goal is to create a shared global resource that aggregates this metadata for scientific research, encouraging collaboration to solve problems related to text access, detection methods and resource sharing.
