Orcid

Abstract

ORCID is a not-for-profit organization that provides the Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID), allowing researchers to register for a unique identifier.

Wikidata as a FAIR knowledge graph for the life sciences

“…However, centralized resources are very difficult and expensive to maintain and 30 expand [4,5], in large part because of limited bandwidth and resources of the technical team and the 31 bottlenecks that introduces. 32 33 At the other end of the spectrum, distributed approaches to data integration leave in place a broad 34 landscape of individual resources, focusing on technical infrastructure to query and integrate across 35 them for each query. These approaches lower the barriers to adding new data by enabling anyone to 36 publish data by following community standards.…”

“…The Wikidata Biomedical Knowledge Graph 33 The original effort behind this work focused on creating and annotating Wikidata items for human and 34 mouse genes and proteins [10], and was subsequently expanded to include microbial reference 35 genomes from NCBI RefSeq [13]. Since then, the Wikidata community (including our team) has 36 significantly expanded the depth and breadth of biological information within Wikidata, resulting in a 37 rich, heterogeneous knowledge graph (Figure 1).…”

“…properties such as pathway name, identifier, organism, and the list of component genes, proteins, and 35 chemical compounds. Properties for contributing authors (via ORCID properties [33]), descriptions and 36 ontology annotations are also being added for Wikidata pathway entries. 37 38 Diseases.…”

“…Wikidata. Based on mapping tables that have been imported, Wikidata items can be mapped to 33 databases that are both widely-and rarely-used in the life sciences community. Because all these 34 mappings are stored in a centralized database and use a systematic data model, generic and reusable 35 translation scripts can easily be written (Figure 2).…”

Standardization Issues in Information World

“…ORCID, araştırmacıların, bilimsel yayınlarındaki isim benzerliklerinden kaynaklanan karışıklığı önlemek üzere ortaya çıkmıştır (Sprague, 2017;"Requiring ORCID", 2017). ORCID numarası çalışmaya katkıda bulunan her bir yazarı ayrı ayrı tanımlayan dijital bir addır (ID) ("Requiring ORCID", 2017).…”
