We from MrDlib are on it to integrate related article recommendation into JabRef. Since our first suggestion for the related article area (raa) was misplaced, we here introduce two design alternatives for that. In the first suggestion the raa was placed as a tab in the “edit bibtex file” area, rea…

@Sara_Yousif Thank you very much for your thoughts. I really like your illustrations/drafts and believe that this is certainly how the recommendations should be displayed - in the long run. Let me explain some of my ideas and how I see the integration of Mr. DLib in JabRef. One of the main reasons…

sorry for the muliple postings, but this forum only allows adding two URLs in one post I am confused in how the user can reach the recommended articles if they started from scratch? Assuming that we would integrate the arxiv.org articles, we would have two options. We could link a recommendatio…

@joeran I’m a bit skeptical that returning HTML from Mr. DLib is the best way to integrate it into JabRef. You definitely have a good point regarding maintenance, which is a lot easier. However you are sacrificing the level of how deep the recommendation system can be integrated into JabRef. For exa…

@joeran @tobiasdiez I agree with tobias. If Mr. DLib only returns HTML that is displayed in a tab in JabRef, then it will be hard to have a decent integration with the remaining functionality. Also meaningful error handling will be difficult. On top of that, it will mean that Mr.DLib will determine…

@joeran I agree with @tobiasdiez that returning HTML is not a good idea as it will be as an isolated section with no cross interaction between the Mr. Dlib and the reference management system. My question is, which is the main and which is helper? the reference manager or the recommender system? I …

And one additional thought to the points @joerg.lenhard and @tobiasdiez already mentioned: Whereas it even might be acceptable for us to show the HTML version provided by Mr. DLib this will be inacceptable for other potential partners - because of the reasons Jörg pointed out. So I think providing…

The return format doesn’t even need to be XML/JSON. It could just be plain BibTeX :wink: @Sara_Yousif : In this case, the scenario from the user point of view will definitely be the reference manager first. JabRef is not an addon to a recommender system, but a recommender system might be an addon to…

[image] joerg.lenhard: The return format doesn’t even need to be XML/JSON. It could just be plain BibTeX :wink: Which would of course be easy to integrate for us - bot not necessarily for other potential partners :wink: However, exporting some already existing format might ease the integrati…

JabRef is not an addon to a recommender system, but a recommender system might be an addon to the reference manager. I can definitely agree to this point of view :wink: However, IMHO there are many more issues to consider than Functionality and Maintainability. I will explain all issues in detai…

@joeran : Apologies if my post sounds rather negative, it is really meant constructively. We just had a devcall and decided that we will not support an integration of Mr. DLib purely with embedded HTML. Ultimately, if you want integration with JabRef, and thus get access to a potentially large user …
