- hprotagonist 6y ago“shingling” is the (fairly rude) term of art.
- pbhjpbhj 6y agoI don't know how it's rude, shingling means 'many small roof tiles' to me.
- hprotagonist 6y ago'term of art' means that there's a specific meaning inside a particular sphere of discussion for this term (which has normal sense elsewhere). To accuse a research group of shingling means that you think that that group releases a lot of papers one after the other which have a lot of overlap between them and back-cite each other-- and that this is done to artificially boost publication count and citation count to make the group look prominent.
- pbhjpbhj 6y agoCool, thanks, I did a quick search but nothing came up - I assumed it was something scatalogical :o)
