谷歌学术的缺陷:导致研究人员被排除在自己的作品之外

#Tech

谷歌学术存在一个严重的缺陷,会导致姓氏为单个字母的研究人员(常见于中国和韩国文化)被排除在自己的学术成果中。

当用户点击“引用”按钮时,这些研究人员的名字会被完全删除,导致引文信息不完整,并可能在其他研究人员的引用中错误地传播。

该缺陷源于谷歌学术将单个字母姓氏误判为首字母或中间名,从而导致姓名显示错误和引用缺失。

尽管谷歌内部数据正确,但显示和引用导出功能出现问题。

该问题影响了数千名研究人员,并可能构成一种“引文清洗”问题,需要谷歌进行修复。

Imagine working your entire life to become a PhD microbiology researcher, one of the absolute best in the world in your domain. You have been the leading researcher on a groundbreaking whitepaper that will influence thousands and you've published your findings to Google Scholar - there's only one problem.

Your surname only has one letter, and Google Scholar omits you from citations from your own works because of it. You will never get the credit you deserve because Google has decided that they do not care about you, and you will never know why.

That is, until now.
