Knowledge management of scholarly products: Semantic lancet project

There is an ever increasing interest in publishing Linked Open Datasets about scientific papers. The current landscape is very fragmented: some projects focus on bibliographic data, others on authorship data, others on citations, and so on. The quality is also heterogeneous and the production and maintenance of such datasets is difficult and timeconsuming. In this paper we introduce the Semantic Lancet Project, whose goal is to make available rich semantic data about scholarly publications and to provide users with sophisticated services on top of those data. We developed a chain of tools that produce high-quality data from multiple sources. It has been successfully used to produce a rich and freely available LOD, described here as well.
