Overview

BibDedupe is an open-source Python library for deduplication of bibliographic records, tailored for literature reviews. Unlike traditional deduplication methods, BibDedupe focuses on entity resolution, linking duplicate records instead of simply deleting them.

Features

  • Automated Duplicate Linking with Zero False Positives: BibDedupe automates the duplicate linking process with a focus on eliminating false positives.
  • Preprocessing Approach: BibDedupe uses a preprocessing approach that reflects the unique error generation process in academic databases, such as author re-formatting, journal abbreviation or translations.
  • Entity Resolution: BibDedupe does not simply delete duplicates, but it links duplicates to resolve the entitity and integrates the data. This allows for validation, and undo operations.
  • Programmatic Access: BibDedupe is designed for seamless integration into existing research workflows, providing programmatic access for easy incorporation into scripts and applications.
  • Transparent and Reproducible Rules: BibDedupe's blocking and matching rules are transparent and easily reproducible to promote reproducibility in deduplication processes.
  • Continuous Benchmarking: Continuous integration tests running on GitHub Actions ensure ongoing benchmarking, maintaining the library's reliability and performance across datasets.
  • Efficient and Parallel Computation: BibDedupe implements computations efficiently and in parallel, using appropriate data structures and functions for optimal performance.
