论文摘要

科学文章的作者身份已经从早期科学发生了深刻的变化。如果从前的纸张是由少数作者撰写的,那么如今的科学合作平均更为突出。根据传统研究评估框架,由于作者身份(和引文)本质上是主要的奖励机制,因此它变成了一个相当热门的话题,其中很大一部分的学术纠纷源于该主题。但是,新颖的开放科学实践可能是破坏这种动态并使参与相同研究工作不同阶段的不同科学贡献者的信用的机会。实际上,上下文发表的论文和研究数据(或软件)可能会表现出不同的作者身份,以归功于最合适的各种贡献者。我们认为,可以通过利用模型开放科学图中的大量信息来计算分析。这样的研究可以铺平道路,以更好地理解链接的文献,研究数据和软件中作者身份的动态和模式,以及它们多年来如何发展。

Authorship of scientific articles has profoundly changed from early science until now. If once upon a time a paper was authored by a handful of authors, scientific collaborations are much more prominent on average nowadays. As authorship (and citation) is essentially the primary reward mechanism according to the traditional research evaluation frameworks, it turned to be a rather hot-button topic from which a significant portion of academic disputes stems. However, the novel Open Science practices could be an opportunity to disrupt such dynamics and diversify the credit of the different scientific contributors involved in the diverse phases of the lifecycle of the same research effort. In fact, a paper and research data (or software) contextually published could exhibit different authorship to give credit to the various contributors right where it feels most appropriate. We argue that this can be computationally analysed by taking advantage of the wealth of information in model Open Science Graphs. Such a study can pave the way to understand better the dynamics and patterns of authorship in linked literature, research data and software, and how they evolved over the years.
