Citation rings are a major issue, particularly in AI conferences.
- checkyoursudo 2y agoBut also particularly in a lot of fields. One problem in niche areas is that sometimes there are only so many people working on a particular problem and only so many different papers/authors to cite.
- SeanLuke 2y agoI'm not talking about niche areas. I'm talking about genuine illicit citation rings.
- falcor84 2y agoJust out of curiosity, do AI practitioners utilize AI to optimize citations? If so, I'd expect papers detailing how to go about it to get massive citations. The appropriate venue might be the Journal of Data Science, Informetrics, and Citation Studies [0], and I didn't see any such articles there yet.
