dblp_cite — DBLP citations (2017-2026)

Description

Citations among publications in the dblp computer science bibliography. The data are from the XML dump of dblp, the computer science bibliography maintained by the University of Trier and Schloss Dagstuhl, which lists publications from journals, conference proceedings, books, theses and the arXiv Computing Research Repository (CoRR). The collection contains one network for each of two monthly releases of the dump: 2017, from the release of 2 May 2017, and 2026-10, from the release of 3 October 2026. Each record of the dump is a publication of one of the types article (journal articles and CoRR preprints), inproceedings (conference papers), proceedings (edited proceedings volumes), book, incollection (book chapters), phdthesis or mastersthesis, and, in the release of 2026, also data (research data and artifacts); the person records (homepages) of the dump are not used. Authors are identified by their dblp name, which dblp disambiguates by hand where it can (homonymous authors are distinguished by a numeric suffix, e.g. "Wei Wang 0001"), but some of which may still refer to several persons. Some of the records list the dblp keys of the publications they cite; these citation data are sparse, cover only a small number of publications (mostly in databases, and published until the early 2000s), and are no longer maintained by dblp. Nodes are publications, and a directed edge from publication $i$ to publication $j$ means that $i$ cites $j$; only publications that cite or are cited by another one are included, and a few citations listed more than once are included only once. Some publications cite themselves, so that the network contains self-loops. A few of the cited items are web pages (records of type www, which have no year).

The network has the following properties:

  • (Node) name: the dblp key of the publication.
  • (Node) title: the title of the publication.
  • (Node) year: the year of publication (-1 if missing).
  • (Node) type: the record type of the publication (see above).
  • (Node) venue: the journal (for articles) or the proceedings or book title (for papers in proceedings and book chapters); empty for other types.
