Matilda has just passed two milestones: 150M different works are included and you can full-text search 25 millions of them We aim at 200M and 50M a year from now. matilda.science?l=en #scientificpublishing #opendata

The harshness of grant calls in the research world: our project received the maximum grade of 100/100... and still was not funded.

Is there a relationship between the metadata publishers submit to Crossref and the submission systems they use? 🤔
We (w/ @msphelps.bsky.social) analyzed 153 publishers and 4 major systems to find out.

We will never have any AI (LLM) component inside Matilda to avoid that situation. Bibliographic search needs deterministic, transparent and reproducible processes. AI-training robots already come to the platform, which is fine, though we need to slow them down to avoid DDOS-style crashes.

"It took her nearly two decades to find a permanent academic position. She found occasional work as a visiting professor, filling in for someone on leave for a year or two. She earned grants to fund her research... but she was often living on unemployment benefits"

Matilda is LLM-free so that you can always trace back any data/reference/publication to trusted sources. Of course we don't build fancy bios, we just give you the link to the author's ORCID page #openscience #opendata
Just in case there was any doubt, ChatGPT 5.0 still makes up completely random citations that don't exist and should not be used for literature search.

Not sure how many scientists here have tried Claude Code or similar command line coding assistants. I had a complicated family property tax problem that was best solved by a brute force Monte Carlo simulation approach, so I spent a few days coding up and analyzing a model with Claude Code.

The beauty of full-text search in Matilda. Among 27M papers, at least 61 use "herbal language" (instead of natural language). #openscience #researchintegrity matilda.science/search/?l=fr...

Today's MetaROR paper discusses "the use of document data networks to control the topic clustering of a science map" with "rigorous methodology" & "careful presentation".
Reviewers consider it "a valuable contribution to the literature", and provide the authors detailed feedback.
