This paper studies the relationship between migration and the productivity of high-skilled workers, as captured by inventors of international patent applications. Using machine learning techniques to uniquely identify inventors across patents, we are able ...
Approaches for estimating the similarity between individual publications are an area of long -standing interest in the scientometrics and informetrics communities. Traditional techniques have generally relied on references and other metadata, while text mi ...
Background While specialization plays an essential role in how scientific research is pursued, we understand little about its effects on a researcher's impact and career. In particular, the extent to which one specializes within their chosen fields likely ...
