Strategies

"arxiv"

Parses bibtex from dblp and abstracts directly.

"nips"

Parses bibtex and abstracts directly.

"acm"

Parses bibtex via the doi from https://dx.doi.org/ and abstracts directly.

"ieee"

Parses bibtex via the doi from https://dx.doi.org/ and abstracts directly.

"sciencedirect"

Parses bibtex via the doi from https://dx.doi.org/ and abstracts directly.

"wiley"

Parses bibtex via the doi from https://dx.doi.org/ and abstracts directly.

"semanticscholar"

Prefer other parsers where possible. Semantic scholar tends to index other websites and therefore results are sketchy. Parses bibtex via the DOI if possible, manual creation if not. Abstracts are direct.
