Supplementary material to an analysis on data citation practices based on the Data Citation Index from Thomson Reuters. This database launched in 2012 aims to link data sets and data studies with citation received from the rest of their citation indexes. Funding bodies and research organizations are increasingly demanding the need of researchers to make their scientific data available in a reusable and reproducible manner, aiming to maximize the allocation of funding while providing transparency on the scientific process. The DCI harvests citations to research data from papers indexed in the Web of Knowledge. It relies on the information provided by the data repository as data citation practices are inconsistent or inexistent in many cases. The findings of this study show that data citation practices are far from common in most research fields.. Some differences have been reported on the way researchers cite data: while in the areas of Science and Engineering & Technology data sets were the most cited, in Social Sciences and Arts & Humanities data studies play a greater role. 88.1% of the records have received no citation, but some repositories show very low uncitedness rates. While data citation practices are rare in most fields, they have expanded in disciplines such as Crystallography or Genomics. We conclude by emphasizing the role the DCI may play to encourage consistent and standardized citation of research data which will allow considering its use on following the research process developed by researchers, from data collection to publication.

The journals’ author guidelines and/or editorial policies were examined on whether they take a stance with regard to the availability of the underlying data of the submitted article. The mere explicated possibility of providing supplementary material along with the submitted article was not considered as a research data policy in the present study. Furthermore, the present article excluded source codes or algorithms from the scope of the paper and thus policies related to them are not included in the analysis of the present article.

For selection of journals within the field of neurosciences, Clarivate Analytics’ InCites Journal Citation Reports database was searched using categories of neurosciences and neuroimaging. From the results, journals with the 40 highest Impact Factor (for the year 2017) indicators were extracted for scrutiny of research data policies. Respectively, the selection journals within the field of physics was created by performing a similar search with the categories of physics, applied; physics, atomic, molecular & chemical; physics, condensed matter; physics, fluids & plasmas; physics, mathematical; physics, multidisciplinary; physics, nuclear and physics, particles & fields. From the results, journals with the 40 highest Impact Factor indicators were again extracted for scrutiny. Similarly, the 40 journals representing the field of operations research were extracted by using the search category of operations research and management.

Journal-specific data policies were sought from journal specific websites providing journal specific author guidelines or editorial policies. Within the present study, the examination of journal data policies was done in May 2019. The primary data source was journal-specific author guidelines. If journal guidelines explicitly linked to the publisher’s general policy with regard to research data, these were used in the analyses of the present article. If journal-specific research data policy, or lack of, was inconsistent with the publisher’s general policies, the journal-specific policies and guidelines were prioritized and used in the present article’s data. If journals’ author guidelines were not openly available online due to, e.g., accepting submissions on an invite-only basis, the journal was not included in the data of the present article. Also journals that exclusively publish review articles were excluded and replaced with the journal having the next highest Impact Factor indicator so that each set representing the three field of sciences consisted of 40 journals. The final data thus consisted of 120 journals in total.

‘Public deposition’ refers to a scenario where researcher deposits data to a public repository and thus gives the administrative role of the data to the receiving repository. ‘Scientific sharing’ refers to a scenario where researcher administers his or her data locally and by request provides it to interested reader. Note that none of the journals examined in the present article required that all data types underlying a submitted work should be deposited into a public data repositories. However, some journals required public deposition of data of specific types. Within the journal research data policies examined in the present article, these data types are well presented by the Springer Nature policy on “Availability of data, materials, code and protocols” (Springer Nature, 2018), that is, DNA and RNA data; protein sequences and DNA and RNA sequencing data; genetic polymorphisms data; linked phenotype and genotype data; gene expression microarray data; proteomics data; macromolecular structures and crystallographic data for small molecules. Furthermore, the registration of clinical trials in a public repository was also considered as a data type in this study. The term specific data types used in the custom coding framework of the present study thus refers to both life sciences data and public registration of clinical trials. These data types have community-endorsed public repositories where deposition was most often mandated within the journals’ research data policies.

The term ‘location’ refers to whether the journal’s data policy provides suggestions or requirements for the repositories or services used to share the underlying data of the submitted works. A mere general reference to ‘public repositories’ was not considered a location suggestion, but only references to individual repositories and services. The category of ‘immediate release of data’ examines whether the journals’ research data policy addresses the timing of publication of the underlying data of submitted works. Note that even though the journals may only encourage public deposition of the data, the editorial processes could be set up so that it leads to either publication of the research data or the research data metadata in conjunction to publishing of the submitted work.

Description

This dataset describes how datasets published in the research data repository RADAR are referenced, combining references extracted from Google Scholar, DataCite Event Data and the Data Citation Corpus.

DOIs assigned to RADAR datasets were retrieved from the RADAR API 2025-01-27. References in the three data sources were then identified using these DOIs. Each research output referencing a RADAR dataset was accessed to determine where the reference occurred in the full text. Author names and publication dates for datasets and referencing objects were added from OpenAlex and DataCite on 2025-02-10. Author names of datasets and referencing objects were compared to determine if data reuse occurred.

Columns

These data were generated for an investigation of research data repository (RDR) mentions in biuomedical research articles.

Supplementary Table 1 is a discrete subset of SciCrunch RDRs used to study RDR mentions in biomedical literature. We generated this list by starting with the top 1000 entries in the SciCrunch database, measured by citations, removed entries for organizations (such as universities without a corresponding RDR) or non-relevant tools (such as reference managers), updated links, and consolidated duplicates resulting from RDR mergers and name variations. The resulting list of 737 RDRs is shown in with as a base based on a source list of RDRs in the SciCrunch database. The file includes the Research Resource Identifier (RRID), the RDR name, and a link to the RDR record in the SciCrunch database.

Supplementary Table 2 shows the RDRs, associated journals, and article-mention pairs (records) with text snippets extracted from mined Methods text in 2020 PubMed articles. The dataset has 4 components. The first shows the list of repositories with RDR mentions, and includes the Research Resource Identifier (RRID), the RDR name, the number of articles that mention the RDR, and a link to the record in the SciCrunch database. The second shows the list of journals in the study set with at least 1 RDR mention, andincludes the Journal ID, nam, ESSN/ISSN, the total count of publications in 2020, the number of articles that had text available to mine, the number of article-mention pairs (records), number of articles with RDR mentions, the number of unique RDRs mentioned, % of articles with minable text. The third shows the top 200 journals by RDR mention, normalized by the proportion of articles with available text to mine, with the same metadata as the second table. The fourth shows text snippets for each RDR mention, and includes the RRID, RDR name, PubMedID (PMID), DOI, article publication date, journal name, journal ID, ESSN/ISSN, article title, and snippet.

Machine-readable metadata available from landing pages for datasets facilitate data citation by enabling easy integration with reference managers and other tools used in a data citation workflow. Embedding these metadata using the schema.org standard with the JSON-LD is emerging as the community standard. This dataset is a listing of data repositories that have implemented this approach or are in the progress of doing so.

This is the first version of this dataset and was generated via community consultation. We expect to update this dataset, as an increasing number of data repositories adopt this approach, and we hope to see this information added to registries of data repositories such as re3data and FAIRsharing.

In addition to the listing of data repositories we provide information of the schema.org properties supported by these data repositories, focussing on the required and recommended properties from the "Data Citation Roadmap for Scholarly Data Repositories".

Citation Networks

The data life cycle from experiments to scientific publications follows in general the schema: experiments, data analysis, interpretation, and publication of scientific paper. Beside the publication of scientific findings, it is important to keep the data investment and ensure its future processing. This implies a guarantee for a long-term preservation and preventing of data loss. Condensed and enriched with metadata, primary data would be a more valuable resource than the re-extraction from articles. In this context it becomes essential, to change the handling and the acceptance of primary data within the scientific community. Data and publications should be honored with a high attention and reputation for data publishers. Here, we present new features of the e!DAL Java API (http://edal.ipk-gatersleben.de) as a lightweight software framework for publishing and sharing of research data. Its main features are version tracking, management of metadata, information retrieval, registration of persistent identifier, embedded HTTP(S) server for public data access, access as network file system, and a scalable storage backend. e!DAL is available as an open-source API for a local nonshared storage and remote usage to feature distributed applications. IPK is an approved data center in the international DataCite consortium (http://www.datacite.org/) and applies e!DAL as data submission and registration system. In the latest version the focus was to extend the features for the registration of Digital Object Identifier (DOI) and the development of a simple, but sufficient approval process to regulate the assignment of persistent identifier. In addition we implement some new graphical components, like an easy installation/demo wizard, to simplify the establishment of a repositories using e!DAL. An intuitive publication tool (Figure 1), allows uploading your data into your own private repository over the web and getting a DOI to permanently reference the datasets and increase your “data citation” index.

Summary of Abstract

The depositar (https://data.depositar.io/) is a research data repository at Academia Sinica (Taiwan) open to researhers worldwide for the deposit, discovery, and reuse of datasets. The depositar software itself is open source and builds on top of CKAN. CKAN, an open source project initiated by the Open Knowledge Foundation and sustained by an active user community, is a leading data management system for building data hubs and portals. In addition to CKAN's out-of-the-box features such as JSON data API and in-browser preview of uploaded data, we have added several features to the depositar, including sourcing from Wikidata as dataset keywords, a citation snippet for datasets, in-browser Shapefile preview, and a persistent identifier system based on ARK (Archival Resource Keys). At the same time, the depositar team faces an increasing demand for interactive computing (e.g. Jupyter Notebook) which facilitates not just data analysis, but also for the replication and demonstration of scientific studies. Recently, we have provided a JupyterHub service (a multi-tenancy JupyterLab) to some of the depositar's users. However, it still requires users to first download the data files (or copy the URLs of the files) from the depositar, then upload the data files (or paste the URLs) to the Jupyter notebooks for analysis. Furthermore, a JupyterHub deployed on a single server is limited by its processing power which may lower the service level to the users. To address the above issues, we are integrating the BinderHub into the depositar. BinderHub (https://binderhub.readthedocs.io/) is a kubernetes-based service that allows users to create interactive computing environments from code repositories. Once the integration is completed, users will be able to launch Jupyter Notebooks to perform data analysis and vsualization without leaving the depositar by clicking the BinderHub buttons on the datasets. In this presentation, we will first make a brief introduction to the depositar and BinderHub along with their relationship, then we will share our experiences in incorporating interactive computation in a data repository. We shall also evaluate the possibility of integrating the depositar with other automation frameworks (e.g. the Snakemake workflow management system) in order to enable users to reproduce data analysis.

The Cline Center Global News Index is a searchable database of textual features extracted from millions of news stories, specifically designed to provide comprehensive coverage of events around the world. In addition to searching documents for keywords, users can query metadata and features such as named entities extracted using Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods and variables that measure sentiment and emotional valence. Archer is a web application purpose-built by the Cline Center to enable researchers to access data from the Global News Index. Archer provides a user-friendly interface for querying the Global News Index (with the back-end indexing still handled by Solr). By default, queries are built using icons and drop-down menus. More technically-savvy users can use Lucene/Solr query syntax via a ‘raw query’ option. Archer allows users to save and iterate on their queries, and to visualize faceted query results, which can be helpful for users as they refine their queries. Additional Resources: - Access to Archer and the Global News Index is limited to account-holders. If you are interested in signing up for an account, please fill out the Archer Access Request Form so we can determine if you are eligible for access or not. - Current users who would like to provide feedback, such as reporting a bug or requesting a feature, can fill out the Archer User Feedback Form. - The Cline Center sends out periodic email newsletters to the Archer Users Group.

This document contains the datasets and visualizations generated after the application of the methodology defined in our work: "A qualitative and quantitative citation analysis toward retracted articles: a case of study". The methodology defines a citation analysis of the Wakefield et al. [1] retracted article from a quantitative and qualitative point of view. The data contained in this repository are based on the first two steps of the methodology. The first step of the methodology (i.e. “Data gathering”) builds an annotated dataset of the citing entities, this step is largely discussed also in [2]. The second step (i.e. "Topic Modelling") runs a topic modeling analysis on the textual features contained in the dataset generated by the first step.

Note: the data are all contained inside the "method_data.zip" file. You need to unzip the file to get access to all the files and directories listed below.

Data gathering

The data generated by this step are stored in "data/":

"cits_features.csv": a dataset containing all the entities (rows in the CSV) which have cited the Wakefield et al. retracted article, and a set of features characterizing each citing entity (columns in the CSV). The features included are: DOI ("doi"), year of publication ("year"), the title ("title"), the venue identifier ("source_id"), the title of the venue ("source_title"), yes/no value in case the entity is retracted as well ("retracted"), the subject area ("area"), the subject category ("category"), the sections of the in-text citations ("intext_citation.section"), the value of the reference pointer ("intext_citation.pointer"), the in-text citation function ("intext_citation.intent"), the in-text citation perceived sentiment ("intext_citation.sentiment"), and a yes/no value to denote whether the in-text citation context mentions the retraction of the cited entity ("intext_citation.section.ret_mention"). Note: this dataset is licensed under a Creative Commons public domain dedication (CC0).

"cits_text.csv": this dataset stores the abstract ("abstract") and the in-text citations context ("intext_citation.context") for each citing entity identified using the DOI value ("doi"). Note: the data keep their original license (the one provided by their publisher). This dataset is provided in order to favor the reproducibility of the results obtained in our work.

Topic modeling We run a topic modeling analysis on the textual features gathered (i.e. abstracts and citation contexts). The results are stored inside the "topic_modeling/" directory. The topic modeling has been done using MITAO, a tool for mashing up automatic text analysis tools, and creating a completely customizable visual workflow [3]. The topic modeling results for each textual feature are separated into two different folders, "abstracts/" for the abstracts, and "intext_cit/" for the in-text citation contexts. Both the directories contain the following directories/files:

"mitao_workflows/": the workflows of MITAO. These are JSON files that could be reloaded in MITAO to reproduce the results following the same workflows.

"corpus_and_dictionary/": it contains the dictionary and the vectorized corpus given as inputs for the LDA topic modeling.

"coherence/coherence.csv": the coherence score of several topic models trained on a number of topics from 1 - 40.

"datasets_and_views/": the datasets and visualizations generated using MITAO.

The datacitation extension for CKAN aims to facilitate proper data citation practices within the CKAN data catalog ecosystem. By providing tools and features to create and manage citations for datasets, the extension promotes discoverability and acknowledgment of data sources, enhancing the reproducibility and transparency of research and analysis based on these datasets. The available information is limited, but based on the name, the extension likely focuses on generating, displaying, and potentially exporting citation information. Key Features (Assumed based on Extension Name): * Dataset Citation Generation: Likely provides functionality to automatically generate citation strings for datasets based on metadata fields, adhering to common citation formats (e.g., APA, MLA, Chicago). * Citation Metadata Management: Potentially offers tools to manage citation-related metadata within datasets, such as author names, publication dates, and version numbers, which are essential elements for creating accurate citations. * Citation Display on Dataset Pages: It's reasonable to expect that the extension displays the generated citation information prominently on the dataset's display page, facilitating easy access for users. * Citation Export Options: May provide options to export citations in various formats (e.g., BibTeX, RIS) to integrate with reference management software popular among researchers. * Citation Style Customization: Possibly provides configuration options to customize the citation style used for generation, accommodating different disciplinary requirements. Use Cases (Inferred): 1. Research Data Repositories: Data repositories can utilize datacitation to ensure that researchers cite datasets correctly, which is crucial for tracking the impact of data and recognizing the contributions of data creators. 2. Government Data Portals: Government agencies can implement the extension to promote the proper use and attribution of open government datasets, fostering transparency and accountability. Technical Integration: Due to limited information, the integration details are speculative. However, it can be assumed that the datacitation extension likely integrates with CKAN by: * Adding a new plugin or module to CKAN that handles citation generation and display. * Extending the CKAN dataset schema to include citation-related metadata fields. * Potentially providing API endpoints for programmatic access to citation information. Benefits & Impact: The anticipated benefits of the datacitation extension include: * Improved data discoverability and reusability through proper citation practices. * Enhanced research reproducibility and transparency by ensuring that data sources are properly acknowledged. * Increased recognition of data creators and contributors. * Simplified citation management for users of CKAN-based data catalogs. Disclaimer: The above information is largely based on assumptions derived from the extension's name and common data citation practices. The actual features and capabilities of the datacitation extension may vary due to the unavailability of a README file.

Within the ESA funded WorldCereal project we have built an open harmonized reference data repository at global extent for model training or product validation in support of land cover and crop type mapping. Data from 2017 onwards were collected from many different sources and then harmonized, annotated and evaluated. These steps are explained in the harmonization protocol (10.5281/zenodo.7584463). This protocol also clarifies the naming convention of the shape files and the WorldCereal attributes (LC, CT, IRR, valtime and sampleID) that were added to the original data sets.

This publication includes those harmonized data sets of which the original data set was published under the CC-BY license or a license similar to CC-BY. See document "_In-situ-data-World-Cereal - license - CC-BY.pdf" for an overview of the original data sets.

Current strategies for primary data management towards effective data publication, retrieval, sharing and citation require enhanced platforms. One driving force is the recent developments in biotechnology. It is attended by a strong growth of scientific primary data. For example, “Next-Generation-Sequencing” or “Plant-Phenotyping” technologies produce a huge amount of primary data. Its analysis and publication is one pillar in modern life science research. Consequently, the responsible use and efficient availability of digital resources is an important factor in the nowadays “e-science” age. The JAVA-based e!DAL-API is a comprehensive storage backend for primary data management. It provides main features for the long-term preservation of scientific primary data and has been designed and tested using experiences from several research projects and literature studies.
