Mon., Feb. 1, 2016:  Erjia Yan, PhD, assistant professor, Department of Information Science, CCI and National Consortium for Data Science Fellow
 
Assessing the Impact of Data and Software on Science Using Hybrid Metrics
 
Yan’s presentation will provide an update on research that examines an addresses challenges with discovering and assessing the impact of software by identifying referencing patterns and designing hybrid metrics to assess the full impact of software. Unlike current data repository indexing, Yan’s work aims to provide context-driven, full text data analytics for software in order to account for the unsystematic ways in which these products are referenced in scientific literature. Ultimately, Yan’s work seeks to develop a system that will comprehensively capture the impact of digital outputs that include both data and software on knowledge production and innovation. Yan’s research is supported by the National Consortium for Data Science.
