Author identifiers are unique identifiers that allow authors to distinguish themselves from other researchers and to unambiguously associate themselves with their work. Author identifiers are unique identifiers assigned to researchers to prevent the author ambiguity problem within the scholarly community because researchers have the same first and last names.

Digital Author Identifier (DAI) system assigns a unique number to all academic authors as a form of authority control.
