Ripeta, a previous Digital Science Catalyst grant winner, aims to make better science easier by identifying and highlighting the important parts of research that should be transparently presented in a manuscript and other materials. The tool detects the key evidence for and assesses reproducibility in the scientific research industry through software and analytics development; improving evidence-based science and fiscal efficiency of research investments. These tools leverage sophisticated machine-learning and natural language processing algorithms to extract key reproducibility elements from research articles.
Gigantum is a completely new approach to handling the interaction between code, data and run-time environments in this new data-rich research world. Focused on open-source tools and frameworks, Gigantum helps researchers to better scale the creation, management and dissemination of fully reproducible research and the data science that supports it.”
