scite, a platform for discovering and evaluating scientific articles, and John Wiley & Sons Inc. have partnered to launch Smart Citations on selected Wiley journals. The one-year pilot includes 121 journals published by Wiley.
Smart Citations display the context of each citation to a publication, allowing readers to see not only how many times a publication has been cited but also how it was cited. Additionally, scite has deployed a state-of-the-art deep learning model to classify the citation statement as providing supporting or disputing evidence for the cited claim.
Josh Nicholson, co-founder and CEO of scite said, “The launch of Smart Citations on 121 different journals represents a key milestone for scite, Wiley, and the scientific community. We think our Smart Citations represent the next generation of citations.” He continued, “Citations are a wealth of information but today we treat them as a mere number. Unlocking this information is our mission at scite, and we’re extremely excited to work with Wiley to display this information on the main article page.”
“Wiley is pleased to build upon our existing partnership with scite to pilot Smart Citations with select Wiley journals,” said Rebecca Reddecliffe, Product Manager, Wiley Online Library. “This feature reinforces our ongoing commitment to leverage technology that supports scholarship and brings published research to life.”
