Academic Search Engine Spam and Google Scholar's Resilience Against it - 0 views

  • Web-based academic search engines such as CiteSeer(X), Google Scholar, Microsoft Academic Search and SciPlore have introduced a new era of search for academic articles.
  • With classic digital libraries, researchers have no influence on getting their articles indexed. They either have published in a publication indexed by a digital library, and then their article is available in that digital library, or they have not

  • ‘Academic Search Engine Optimization’ (ASEO)
  • Citation counts are commonly used to evaluate the impact and performance of researchers and their articles.
  • Nowadays, citation counts from Web-based academic search engines are also used for impact evaluations.
  • Most academic search engines offer features such as showing articles cited by an article, or showing related articles to a given article. Citation spam could bring more articles from manipulating researchers onto more of these lists.
  • It is apparent that a citation from a PowerPoint presentation or thesis proposal has less value than a citation in a peer reviewed academic article. However, Google does not distinguish on its website between these different origins of citations[8].
  • Google Scholar indexes Wikipedia articles when the article is available as PDF on a third party website.
  • That means, again, that not all citations on Google Scholar are what we call ‘full-value’ citations.
  • As long as Google Scholar applies only very rudimentary or no mechanisms to detect and prevent spam, citation counts should be used with care to evaluate articles’ and researchers’ impact.
  • However, Google Scholar is a Web-based academic search engine and as with all Web-based search engines, the linked content should not be trusted blindly.
