Challenge: Existing studies on citation count prediction assume that future citation counts of academic papers have not had enough time pass since publication.
Approach: They propose to use citation counts of newly published papers as a realistic citation count prediction task and to use them to leverage the citations of papers shortly after publication.
Outcome: The proposed methods significantly improve the performance of citation count prediction for newly published papers in a realistic setting.

Is Peer-Reviewing Worth the Effort? (2025.coling-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Using early returns and venue, we can predict which papers will be highly cited in the future.
Approach: They ask whether early returns are predictive of papers' citations .
Outcome: The authors show early returns are more predictive than venue . early returns also predicts which papers will be highly cited in the future .
Comparing Edge-based and Node-based Methods on a Citation Prediction Task (2024.findings-emnlp)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Citation Prediction is the task of estimating whether paper a cites paper b.
Approach: They propose a new Citation Prediction task that evaluates both a node-based model and an edge-based one to quantify these trends.
Outcome: The proposed model improves with larger training sets and degrades with longer forecast horizons.
A High-Quality Gold Standard for Citation-based Tasks (L18-1)

Challenge: Citation recommendation tasks involve recommending citations within their specific contexts.
Approach: They propose to use arXiv.org's citation-dependent evaluation data set to evaluate citations . their data set is characterized by the fact that it exhibits almost zero noise in its extracted content .
Outcome: The proposed data set exhibits almost zero noise in extracted content and all citations are linked to their correct publications.
Automatic Generation of Citation Texts in Scholarly Papers: A Pilot Study (2020.acl-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing studies on automatic generation of citation texts in scholarly papers have not investigated this problem.
Approach: They propose to train an implicit citation extraction model based on BERT and a multi-source pointer-generator network with cross attention mechanism for citation text generation.
Outcome: The proposed model can generate short texts to describe cited papers in scholarly papers with training data.
Predicting Long-Term Citations from Short-Term Linguistic Influence (2022.findings-emnlp)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods to quantify linguistic influence in timestamped documents are not informative about extent to which a paper affected subsequent publications.
Approach: They propose to quantify linguistic influence in timestamped document collections by estimating a Hawkes process with a low-rank parameter matrix and identify lexical and semantic changes using contextual embeddings and word frequencies.
Outcome: The proposed method is based on an online evaluation with incremental temporal training/test splits, in comparison with a strong baseline that includes predictors for initial citation counts, topics, and lexical features.
Related Work and Citation Text Generation: A Survey (2024.emnlp-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Academic research paper authors must perform literature review to compare work with prior work . authors must compose coherent story that connects prior work and current work based on author's understanding of field .
Approach: They propose to use automatic related work generation (RWG) to generate papers . authors summarize key approaches and define tasks in a zoo of historical works .
Outcome: a new study summarises key approaches and defines the tasks and discusses the challenges of RWG.
A Neural Citation Count Prediction Model based on Peer Review Text (D19-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Recent studies have focused on extracting or mining useful features from the paper itself or the associated authors.
Approach: They propose to utilize peer review data for the CCP task with a neural prediction model to learn a comprehensive semantic representation for peer review text.
Outcome: The proposed model improves on the peer review data and hand-crafted features.

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing citation recommendation systems aim to recommend a list of scientific papers for a given text context or a draft paper.
Approach: They propose a task of Recommending Missed Citations Identified by Reviewers to help improve citations of full papers.
Outcome: The proposed framework outperforms existing methods in all metrics and will motivate future research on this challenging task.
Exploiting Citation Knowledge in Personalised Recommendation of Recent Scientific Publications (2020.lrec-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Keeping up with the most recent scientific literature is a challenge for many researchers given the continuous and increasing growth of academic publications.
Approach: They propose to use citation knowledge to provide personalised recommendations of recent scientific publications to a particular user by capturing authors’ publication history and enriched with different forms of paper citation.
Outcome: The proposed dataset captures authors’ publication history and is enriched with different forms of paper citation knowledge, namely citation graphs, citation positions, cited contexts, and citation types.
CiteBench: A Benchmark for Scientific Citation Text Generation (2023.emnlp-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing studies on citation text generation are based upon widely diverging task definitions, making it hard to study this task systematically.
Approach: They propose a benchmark for citation text generation that unifies multiple datasets and enables standardized evaluation of citation texts across task designs and domains.
Outcome: The proposed benchmark examines the performance of multiple strong baselines and enables standardized evaluation of citation text generation models across task designs and domains.
