Overview on Schemas supported by arXiv[edit]

arXiv currently provides the following arXiv metadata formats via the OAI-PMH interface:

format schema example records note
arXiv arXiv Schema Record in arXiv
Record in arXiv (with affiliation)
Record in arXiv (with doi)
Record in arXiv (with TeX in title and abstract)
Record in arXiv (article in German, abstract in English)
Record in arXiv (article with report number)
Record in arXiv (article with report number)
most complete descriptive metadata format, without complete administrative data
oai_dc OAI_DC Schema Record in oai_dc
Record in oai_dc (with affiliation)
Record in oai_dc (with doi)
standard format with some specific mappings to available elements, therefore an arXiv specific parsing would be required
arXivRaw arXivRaw Schema Record in arXivRaw
Record in arXivRaw (with affiliation)
Record in arXivRaw (with doi)
more complete administrative data, but descriptive metadata is less structured, e.g. all author names are mapped to one creator element

Note: not complete yet and subject to modification according to schema comments
arXivOld arXivOld Schema Record in arXivOld not considered

Decision[edit]

For start we will use arXiv metadata format as it seems to require minimum parsing of the metadata values to PubItem.

Agreed, please note that splitting of journal-ref information is probably desired --Inga 12:11, 9 April 2008 (CEST)
I would plan splitting of journal-ref information to R4 (if not a problem, as there is no single rule - based on checking several records) --Natasa 12:46, 9 April 2008 (CEST)

Mapping from arXiv formats to PubItem[edit]

arXiv format[edit]

  • DOI is available, even though not mentioned in schema
1.  header/identifier => identifier (without "oai:arXiv.org:" prefix)
(note: this identifier is important because in the output is pointing to the exact version i.e. v1, v2) which is by arXiv used in "citeAs"

2.  Authors
2.1. author/keyname => LastName
2.2. author/forename => Firstname
2.3. author/affiliation => External organization 

3.  title => title

4.  report-no => Source/sequence-number (only if journal-ref is in, otherwise do not map?). Inga would rather map it to identifier.
5.  journal-ref => source/title/volume/issue/pages (Parsing not in R3)
6.  msc-class => dcterms:subject
7.  abstract => abstract
8.  categories => dcterms:subject
9.  doi => dc:identifier of type DOI
10. proxy => ???, e.g. <proxy>ccsd hal-00260045</proxy>
11. id => identifier, type=arXiv

11. http://arxiv.org/abs/<header/identifier value> => dc:identifier (arXiv)

Subject Classes[edit]

From arXiv we get the abbreviated subject which we can dissolve for further use in publication metadata.

OAI_DC metadata format[edit]

  • Pretty simple as we also use dc metadata in publication profile, but is not correct if not parsed
  • Affiliations are not available
1.  dc:description => dc:abstract (if dc:description does not start with "Comment")
2.  dc:date => lists all dates of all versions that exist (earliest date is date when submitted to arXiv, all other are dates when a  
    new revision is done) 
3.  dc:identifier => partly is identifier, partly is source information (journal reference i.e. from journal-ref in the arXiv 
    metadata format)
4.  dcterms:subject => to dcterms:subject (it is full-name of category ids that are delivered from arXiv format)
5.  dc:creators => affiliations are missing. 


See https://dev.livingreviews.org/projects/epubtk/browser/trunk/ePubTk/lib/arxiv.py for an example of how to use arxiv's oai-pmh interface.

arXivRaw format[edit]

Issues[edit]

  • Affiliations: (no possibility for parsing MPI für XXX as organizational units service does not fully support search by organization name)
    • as not certain if we would like to have it within the controlled vocab or directly ask for search-organizations methods from core services an issue is not created as extra requirement for core services. Might be internal requirement for controlled vocab service institutions).
  • Parsing of journal/source information: to check if it is feasible and if possible to relate it in future with controlled vocab service (journals)
  • Genre: Ein weiteres Problem ist, dass bei beiden Formaten das Genre nicht ersichtlich wird, aber hier wird man vermutlich so vorgehen, dass man Article nimmt
    • to check for book chapters?
