Wiley

Scientific articles contain unstructured data on reagents and their experimental context. Extracting this powerful data, scattered across tables and free-text in thousands of articles, so that it can become useful presents a unique challenge for publishers.

Over a decade of development has honed CiteAb’s text-mining technology. Combining AI with human reviewing CiteAb can identify and understand reagent use in publications. However, without access to the full-text of closed-access publications unlocking the potential of the data within many high quality articles cannot be realised. By partnering together, CiteAb have been able to access these Wiley articles for data mining.

The valuable reagent data generated is then fed into the CiteAb search engine for researchers. The addition of this data provides a more complete view of citations for scientists using the search engine. This helps in the selection of appropriate reagents, saving time and money, improving experimental reproducibility and ultimately accelerating research.

For Wiley, this partnership helps transform published research into practical support for scientists in the field. CiteAb’s work supports Wiley’s mission to unlock human potential, and supports Wiley and its society publishing partners to drive real-world impact for their research.

By keeping in touch via quarterly information sessions and having a clear vision for our work together, we are able to ensure the continued success of our Wiley partnership for researchers, Wiley and CiteAb.
