Every university has its own research strength and norms — a unique mixture of ideas, vocabularies, and disciplinary codes. Epistemic diversity is often celebrated as a hallmark of vibrant academic institutions, fostering innovation and cross-pollination of ideas. University administrators are increasingly interested in fostering interdisciplinary research, and identifying the measures that can cultivate, sustain, or restore the strength of research ecosystems. Many researchers have tried to quantify this diversity, but it’s a tricky problem. Most publishers use subject classification systems to tag research articles: WoS category and ASJC to name a few. However, these systems are coarse-grained and often inconsistent granularity across disciplines. Many discipline has its own coding — physics has PACS, astrophysics has AAS, biology and medical sciences have MeSH terms, economics has JEL. But there are many disciplines that lack such coding systems. Recent advances in interdisciplinary research make it even harder to classify research into discrete categories. ...

By defining “push” in academic citation, learning from open-source software (OSS) development, we demonstrate citation metrics can incentivise reviewer as repository owners, under open participatory peer review. Potential drawbacks and countermeasures are also discussed. venue: ‘ScisciConference’ paperurl: ‘https://sciscijp.github.io/scisciconfJP2024/program/' type: ‘Poster Presentation’
