SCALE: Scientific Concept Aggregation via LLMs and Embeddings for Fine-Grained Taxonomy Extension

arXiv:2608. 07254v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The increasing specialization of scientific research challenges existing classification systems, which provide effective representations of broad disciplines and research topics but often fail to capture the fine-grained conceptual structure of contemporary science.

From Static Bibliometrics to Dynamic Knowledge Graphs: An LLM-Powered Framework for Modernizing Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI) Analytics

arXiv:2607. 21327v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bibliometric indicators - citation counts, h-indexes, co-authorship networks - have long anchored science, technology, and innovation (STI) analytics, yet suffer from temporal lag, semantic shallowness, and an inability to capture the non-linear dynamics of contemporary knowledge ecosystems.

The zbMATH Open Knowledge Graph: Tracing Centuries of Mathematical Research

The zbMATH Open Knowledge Graph is a large-scale RDF knowledge graph that spans more than 250 years of mathematical scholarship. It goes beyond traditional bibliographic metadata by incorporating expert-curated semantic content such as reviews, keywords, subject classifications, software references, and disambiguated authorship. With 34 million entities and 168 million RDF triples, the graph enables fine-grained, historically grounded exploration of mathematical concepts, research fields, and scholarly relationships over time.

Multi-Functional Embedding Models for Funder Name Disambiguation in Scientific Publication Records

The paper introduces a multilingual, multi-functional framework for disambiguating funder names in scientific publications, using a training dataset that merges the Research Organization Registry with Web of Science and Crossref Open Funder Registry data. By applying multi-task learning with contrastive and multiple negatives ranking losses, the authors fine‑tune open‑weight embedding models from the Sentence Transformer, Gemma, and Qwen3 families, achieving over 90% accuracy in matching Web of Science funder names to ROR identifiers and surpassing general‑purpose LLMs by more than 0.1. For funders not present in ROR, a similarity network is constructed to identify clusters, and the study discusses challenges related to smaller and non‑English‑speaking funders.

Charting the Future of Scholarly Knowledge with AI: A Community Perspective

arXiv:2509. 02581v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite the growing availability of tools designed to support scholarly knowledge extraction and organization, many researchers still rely on manual methods, sometimes due to unfamiliarity with existing technologies or limited access to domain-adapted solutions.
