RDBMS Model for Scientific Articles Analytics

Intelligent Tools for Building a Scientific Information Platform

Abstract

We present the relational database schema aimed at efficient storage and querying parsed scientific articles, as well as entities corresponding to researchers, institutions, scientific areas, et cetera. An important requirement in front of the proposed model is to operate with various types of entities, but with no increase of schema’s complexity. Another aspect is to store detailed information about parsed articles in order to conduct advanced analytics in combination with the domain knowledge about scientific topics, by means of standard SQL and RDBMS management. The overall goal is to enable offline, possibly incremental computation of semantic indexes supporting end users via other modules, optimized for fast search and not necessarily for fast analytics, as well as direct ad-hoc SQL access by the most advanced users.
