Researchers have analyzed the impact of author name ambiguity on coauthorship networks, a common issue in digital libraries research. They found that typical disambiguation methods, which rely on initials, can significantly distort network properties by merging or splitting author vertices. This leads to an underestimation of network size and an overestimation of collaboration and embeddedness, potentially skewing research findings. AI
