Making the collective knowledge of chemistry open and machine actionable

Berend Smit, Luc Patiny, Kevin Maik Jablonka

Large amounts of data are generated in chemistry labs-nearly all instruments record data in a digital form, yet a considerable proportion is also captured non-digitally and reported in ways non-accessible to both humans and their computational agents. Chem ...
