SciVal Experts What is SciVal Experts? SciVal Experts is an expertise profiling and research networking tool that helps researchers, administrators, managers and senior leadership identify experts and enable collaboration within their institution and across organizations What does SciVal Experts do? - Searchable directory to find experts and facilitate new partnerships - Understand ‘who knows’ what by researcher and department - Accurate, up-to-date author profiles for the researchers in your institution - Showcase your researchers’ activities and accomplishments "SciVal Experts gives us a comprehensive snapshot of our faculty’s research activities and makes it easy to find experts in a given discipline for collaborative research. It is a great tool to introduce new faculty to existing researchers and to spotlight potential faculty to collaborate on grant proposals."

Detailed process to ensure profiles are accurate and complete Algorithm creates profiles taking into consideration many factors including: Author name segments Co-authors’ names Author email address Affiliations (dept, org, city) Journals (ISSN) Fingerprints Maximize precision High level of recall Elsevier’s Profiles Team verifies the results of the algorithm through a series of tasks. Example: Profiles Team completes a biodata search for every profile by: Matching publications to the author’s CV Searching for past affiliations Identifying name changes Automatic Phase 1 2 Manual Phase

SciVal Experts Fingerprints can be aggregated at various levels Aggregating researchers’ Fingerprints across organizational units allows for the institution to know what individuals know and what groups know… DepartmentInstitute Research Group What new publications and grants have been produced? What trends have emerged over time? Who is working together? With what other organizations (internal and external) are we collaborating? What do we know?
