Dataset and software citations and mentions in NWO and ZonMw funded research

This repository contains the report and accompanying data and scripts of an analysis of dataset and software citations and mentions in scientific publications resulting from NWO and ZonMw-funded projects between 2022 and 2023. The study combines text-mining techniques (via GROBID's DataStet and Softcite modules) with metadata analysis from DataCite and OpenAIRE APIs to quantify the prevalence of dataset and software references. For an overal outline of the followed approach and methodological choices we refer to the methodological annex of the report.

The following files are in this repository:
