The impact of user research at Semantic Scholar

Update 12/11/2022: I forgot to add: SS also has serious shortcomings. One of them is extensive quality issues with their publication data as far as AI and machine learning, computer vision, computational linguistics are concerned. Lot's of duplicate entries (e.g. messing up citation count), wrong authors, mutilated titles and so on.


Recommendable!

Semantic Scholar, Google Scholar, and until recently Microsoft Academic, have been great projects to digest the wealth of human scientific knowledge for everyone!

Disclosure: I am a heavy, daily user of Semantic Scholar. I have also in the recent past tried to provide frequent user feedback to SS staff, but the contact broke up.
