New research evaluates unsupervised methods for scholarly collaboration recommendations

Researchers have evaluated unsupervised methods for recommending scholarly collaborations based on publication text. The study compared TF-IDF, topic-based models (LDA, BERTopic), and embedding-based retrieval using SciBERT with Faiss. Results indicated that topic and embedding-based approaches maintained stable performance even when publication overlap was reduced, suggesting they capture broader similarities beyond direct lexical matches. The paper also explored explainability through intrinsic topic-based and post-hoc retrieval-based methods, offering complementary insights. AI

    Evaluation and Explainability of Unsupervised Scholarly Collaboration Recommendations

    In this paper, we examine unsupervised, content-based collaboration recommendations using publication text in scholarly settings. We compare three families of methods: a TF-IDF baseline, topic-based models (LDA and BERTopic, including clone variants), and embedding-based retrieva…
