Project Partner Recommender

Details

OpenAIRE Matchmaker is an innovative new service built upon the OpenAIRE scholarly graph that enables organisations to keyword search for organisations with the strongest records of funding success from the ever-expanding range of funders included in OpenAIRE. Drawing information from OpenAIRE on institutions, projects and funders, OpenAIRE Matchmaker will enable scientific institutions interested in forming consortia to identify potential partners with the exact disciplinary strengths and competences.
Furthermore, we provide personalized recommendations using Collaborative-Filtering and Content-Based Filtering. This recommendation service can be easily embedded into the OpenAIRE portal (or on research funder websites as an OpenAIRE-branded service), resulting in a new OpenAIRE service which demonstrates the added-value potential of the OpenAIRE scholarly graph for researchers and funders.
Findings of the project were accepted at the Open Scholarly Communication workshop of WWW'2018
