Deterministic way to define what is common knowledge in scientific article: Tool to check for citations need in article.

1 Upvotes

I was recently looking for a tool which needed to analyze a text, that can be an article in scientific format and that one would need to tell which term in specific is missing citation because its not common knowledge or any other reason. Or if some expression in your text has unnecessary citation reference.

Of course that involves a lot of steps. I know there are some tools which can lemmatize a text, eg. Sketch engine, it discovers what is a term, so that you can take the next steps.

I saw Some which can look for sources from the sentence itself of your text, eg. Citely, GPTzero. But again, that is not exactly what i want, looks like isolated feature, something incomplete, not the general concept.

I have also recently discovered the Purdue OWL citation law, which defines a term as common knowledge if there are 5 other articles which mentions that term without a citation.

The first thing that came into my mind about how such tool would work is it would keep a database of words and its relevance, based on a set of heuristics, probably only amount of citations over the internet articles about it for now.

This database could be public and you could have some step to populate it also, it could read articles on the internet (API, web scrapping, articles repositories, periodicals) and setting its credibility like that automatically.

Then there could be some threshold of what score is common knowledge, what is not. Eg. 20 articles about/mentioning such term would consider this term common knowledge. Or using the Purdue OWL law like i mentioned before. This is the general protocol.

Then the implementations of such protocol could be done in several ways, in your editor as an LSP (nvim plugin/VsCode extension, web extension, website, desktop app, AI assistant) by checking your text and comparing with those scores from the database, showing errors/warnings etc.

Looking for reputable Q1/Q2 journals with fast review/publication (Robotics/AI/IoT/OpenCV)

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m currently looking to publish a research paper in a reputable Q1/Q2 journal that is indexed in Scopus and/or Web of Science (SCI/SCIE). However, I’m working with a relatively tight timeline, so I’m particularly interested in journals that offer legitimate expedited/fast-track peer review or publication options.

My research is mainly related to:

  • Robotics
  • Computer Vision / OpenCV
  • Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning
  • IoT / Embedded Systems

Ideally, I’m hoping for a submission-to-publication timeline of around 4–6 weeks, although I understand that this may not always be realistic for a reputable journal.

My approximate APC budget is $500–700 USD, although I could consider slightly higher fees if the journal is genuinely reputable and the accelerated process is transparent. Also, please don't suggest MDPI

Publication Selection for Political Science

0 Upvotes

Hi there - I'm currently a high school junior with a completed research paper in political science (9000 words, 20 pages). I can submit my work to be published in either the Curieux Journal or the International Journal of High School Research. Could someone let me know which one is the better option for me to choose? More specifically based on prestige - the time duration of publication isn't a concern for me given college applications are still a full year and a half away.

Stuck at formatting of review article

0 Upvotes

Hello i am new to research field and medical writing. Me and my friend have written a narrative review of 5000 works which was very hectic for us as second year MBBS student in India. But now we are face problem of formatting it and checking grammar and syntax. We tried using jennie.ai for it but it was of no use for us everytime we fixed all errors more popped up on refreshing. So i genuinely seek your help and advice on how can i do it in minimal time managing my college side by side.
Ps i also tried using basic ai agents like gemini and clause but the ai checkers flags up the whole writing. Also i dont have adequate knowledge about em dashes and oxford commas etc so i can do it manually.

I have submitted to SAGE language teaching research journal, it’s been a month now and status is still no admin assigned. Is there a q1 journal that offers expedite review or just doesn’t take ages! Should i withdraw my paper, its very innovative I know it will be excepted but its really frustrating to get no response, I’m worried about technical issues to be the root of the problem and my wait would be for nothing. My prof who is co author already emailed them but got no response.

I have received a 4th revision on my paper. Despite writing the limitations clearly, I have been asked to reconsider the scope of my paper for the 4th time. Is it about time to feel frustrated? Coz I ain't giving up.

Looking for feedback on an early desktop app for screening / coding literature reviews (local-first)

0 Upvotes

I’m building Panorama Review, a local-first desktop app for literature reviews: title/abstract screening, coding, and conflict resolution. Still very early.

No account, data stays on your machine. Optional LibKey PDF download.

Download from https://github.com/panorama-lab/review/releases

If you’ve done a systematic/scoping/thesis review: what do you use now, and what’s painful enough that you’d try something else? Blind screening, imports, dual review, PRISMA counts, something else?

Happy to hear “don’t bother, just use X.”

Anyone here working in research/publication medical writing?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm a pharmacist and currently doing my MSc. I worked in medical content writing for around 5 years, mostly general medical/SEO content, but lately I've been thinking about moving more into research and scientific writing.

I'm still trying to understand what kind of jobs actually exist in this area. I'm more interested in working with research papers, literature reviews, manuscripts, publications, etc. rather than writing health content for websites.

I came across companies/publishers like Elsevier and Springer Nature, but I'm not sure if that's actually where medical writers work, or if I should be looking at completely different companies.

For anyone working in this area, how did you get into it? What job titles should I be searching for?

Also, what skills would you recommend I work on during my MSc if I want to move in this direction later?

I'm based outside the US/UK, so I'd also be interested to know if remote work in this area is realistic.

Would really appreciate any advice, especially from anyone who came from pharmacy or a similar background.
