title: ORCID-Linked Labeled Data for Evaluating Author Name Disambiguation at Scale

description: This page contains four datasets released for the paper entitled "ORCID-Linked Labeled Data for Evaluating Author Name Disambiguation at Scale" to be published in Scientometrics (In print).<br>1. AUT_ORC.zip: this contains a list of 3M author name instances in MEDLINE linked to Author-ity2009.<br>2. AUT_NIH.zip: this contains a list of 313K author name instances in MEDLINE linked to NIH PI ID.<br>3. AUT_SCT_pairs.zip: this contains a list of 6.2M paper pairs and author byline positions in self-citation relation. <br>4. AUT-SCT_info.zip: this contains a list of 4.7M author name instances in self-citation relation as recorded in AUT_SCT_pairs. Information about an author name instance in AUT-SCT_pairs can be connected to AUT-SCT_info using the combination of PMID and Byline Position as a key.<br>Please see the paper for details on how the datasets were created.<br><br>Kim, J., & Owen-Smith, J.
