From the LSE Impact of Social Sciences Blog:
Open access and text mining of research papers have one thing in common: both aim to improve access to scientific knowledge for people. As a result, text mining is performed in large corpuses of text. In fact, many of the text mining tasks, such as semantic search, recommender systems, question answering, or content summarisation, are only able to realise their full potential when run on an as large a corpus of publications as possible. This means that text miners must typically invest considerable time, effort, and resources in collecting their corpus of interest. Sometimes, this task may prove impossible due to the technical restrictions and limitations of publisher platforms. According to a 2014 Jisc report, text miners can spend up to 90% of their total investigation time on the data collection.
To eliminate these extra steps and save time and money for text miners we have developed the CORE Publisher Connector, a toolkit service designed to assist text miners on accessing content though a single machine interface.
Development of the Publisher Connector was not easy.
