biblioverlap

Document-Level Matching Between Bibliographic Datasets

v1.0.2 · Nov 7, 2023 · GPL (>= 3)

Description

Identifies and visualizes document overlap in any number of bibliographic datasets. This package implements the identification of overlapping documents through the exact match of a unique identifier (e.g. Digital Object Identifier - DOI) and, for records where the identifier is absent, through a score calculated from a set of fields commonly found in bibliographic datasets (Title, Source, Authors and Publication Year). Additionally, it provides functions to visualize the results of the document matching through a Venn diagram and/or UpSet plot, as well as a summary of the matching procedure.
