- ItemSpecial issue on conceptual structures(Dordrecht [u.a.] : Springer Science + Business Media B.V, 2022) Alam, Mehwish; Braun, Tanya; Endres, Dominik; Yun, Bruno[no abstract available]
- ItemzbMATH Open: API Solutions and Research Challenges(Aachen, Germany : RWTH Aachen, 2021) Petrera, Matteo; Trautwein, Dennis; Beckenbach, Isabel; Ehsani, Dariush; Müller, Fabian; Teschke, Olaf; Gipp, Bela; Schubotz, Moritz; Balke, Wolf-Tilo; de Waard, Anita; Fu, Yuanxi; Hua, Bolin; Schneider, Jodi; Song, Ningyuan; Wang, XiaoguangWe present zbMATH Open, the most comprehensive collection of reviews and bibliographic metadata of scholarly literature in mathematics. Besides our website zbMATH.org which is openly accessible since the beginning of this year, we provide API endpoints to offer our data. APIs improve interoperability with others, i.e., digital libraries, and allow using our data for research purposes. In this article, we (1) illustrate the current and future overview of the services offered by zbMATH; (2) present the initial version of the zbMATH links API; (3) analyze potentials and limitations of the links API based on the example of the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions; (4) and finally, present thezbMATHOpen dataset as a research resource and discuss connected open research problems.
- ItemThe transition of zbMATH towards an open information platform for mathematics (II): A two-year progress report(Berlin : EMS Press, an imprint of the European Mathematical Society (EMS), 2022) Hulek, Klaus; Teschke, Olaf[no abstract available]
- ItemSustaining the swMATH project: Integration into zbMATH Open interface and Open Data perspectives(Berlin : EMS Press, an imprint of the European Mathematical Society (EMS), 2022) Azzouz-Thuderoz, Maxence; Schubotz, Moritz; Teschke, Olaf[no abstract available]
- ItemConnecting Islands: Bridging zbMATH and DLMF with Scholix, a blueprint for connecting expert knowledge systems(Berlin : EMS Press, 2021) Cohl, Howard S.; Teschke, Olaf; Schubotz, MoritzThis paper reports on the recently launched zbMATH Links API. We discuss its potential based on the initial link partner, the National Institute of Standards and Technology Digital Library of Mathematical Functions. As the API provides machine readable data in the links, we show how one can use data from both sources for further analysis. To exemplify the simplicity, we also show how one can use zbMATH’s link data in Jupyter notebooks.
- ItemMathematics in Wikidata(Aachen, Germany : RWTH Aachen, 2021) Scharpf, Philipp; Schubotz, Moritz; Gipp, Bela; Kaffee, Lucie-Aimée; Razniewski, Simon; Hogan, AidanDocuments from Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines usually contain a signicant amount of mathematical formulae alongside text. Some Mathematical Information Retrieval (MathIR) systems, e.g., Mathematical Question Answering (MathQA), exploit knowledge from Wikidata. Therefore, the mathematical information needs to be stored in items. In the last years, there have been efforts to define several properties and seed formulae together with their constituting identifiers into Wikidata. This paper summarizes the current state, challenges, and discussions related to this endeavor. Furthermore, some data mining methods (supervised formula annotation and concept retrieval) and applications (question answering and classification explainability) of the mathematical information are outlined. Finally, we discuss community feedback and issues related to integrating Mathematical Entity Linking (MathEL) into Wikidata and Wikipedia, which was rejected in 33% and 12% of the test cases, for Wikidata and Wikipedia respectively. Our long-term goal is to populate Wikidata, such that it can serve a variety of automated math reasoning tasks and AI systems.
- ItemThe integration of OEIS links in zbMATH Open(Berlin : EMS Press, 2023) Ehsani, Dariush; Petrera, Matteo; Teschke, OlafThe transition towards an Open Data Platform enabled zbMATH Open to build a network of open resources. Important components in the evolving information system are mathematical research data, which are of quite heterogeneous nature. For their interlinking, zbMATH Open provides Application Programming Interface (API) solutions to offer mathematical research data to the community. Among other APIs recently implemented at zbMATH Open, the so-called Links API is aimed to document interconnections between our database and external platforms which display mathematical literature indexed at zbMATH Open. The Digital Library of Mathematical Functions (DLMF) has been our first partner and their data have been integrated in our database in 2021. Recently we interlinked with the second platform, the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS), a renowned digital database of number sequences that cites a lot of mathematical literature, especially from number theory and graph theory. The purpose of this short contribution is to announce and discuss the links to OEIS data in zbMATH Open.
- ItemHow do mathematicians publish? – Some trends(Berlin : EMS Press, 2023) Hulek, Klaus; Teschke, OlafWe have already discussed bibliometric measures for the mathematics corpus in this column before. This included the unusual longevity of mathematics citations, effects of delayed publication due to often long and complex refereeing processes, and the specifics of different mathematical areas. It has become clear that purely numerical criteria are often unsuitable to measure mathematical quality or the scientific impact of publications. At the same time, the bibliometric results often depend on mathematical subfields, thus reflecting the structure and different behaviour of mathematical communities. In this column we concentrate on an author-oriented viewpoint. We will derive some quantities which illustrate how the landscape of mathematical publications has changed over the past decades.
