# Dataset Card for the Scientific Contribution Graph (SCG)
|
| 39 |
+
|
| 40 |
+
> **Compressed Parquet release:** this Hub dataset is a compact Parquet encoding of the Scientific Contribution Graph.
|
| 41 |
+
> It reduces the on-disk footprint from **~80 GB uncompressed JSON/tree files → ~6 GB Parquet**, while preserving the same contributions, prerequisite edges, and metadata as SCG **v1.1**.
|
| 42 |
+
|
| 43 |
+
The **Scientific Contribution Graph** maps how science is built “on the shoulders of giants”: it extracts fine-grained scientific contributions from open-access papers and links each contribution to the precursor contributions it builds on.
|
| 44 |
+
|
| 45 |
+
This card documents the **v1.1** graph in Parquet form. The original full-tree release used by the [SCG Explorer](https://huggingface.co/spaces/pajansen/scientific-contribution-graph) and the official API lives in the bucket [`pajansen/scg-explorer-space-data`](https://huggingface.co/buckets/pajansen/scg-explorer-space-data) (~84.4 GB, 655,252 files; ~80 GB uncompressed / ~19 GB tar-compressed). **Prefer this Parquet dataset when you want the same graph at ~6 GB.**

## Dataset Details
|
| 50 |
+
|
| 51 |
+
### Dataset Description
|
| 52 |
+
|
| 53 |
+
Scientific contributions rarely appear in isolation. SCG treats automated **technological roadmapping** as knowledge-graph construction over full paper text:
|
| 54 |
+
|
| 55 |
+
- **Nodes** are individual scientific contributions (name + long-form description + metadata), not whole papers and not short entity spans.
|
| 56 |
+
- **Edges** are prerequisite / precursor relations, each with a natural-language explanation of *why* one contribution enables another, plus alignment to cited papers.
|
| 57 |
+
|
| 58 |
+
Extraction is modeled as open-ended sequence-to-sequence generation over full text (on the order of ~43 LLM calls per paper), then cross-paper alignment of prerequisites to contributions in cited work.

## Uses
|
| 93 |
+
|
| 94 |
+
### Direct Use
|
| 95 |
+
|
| 96 |
+
- Loading the full SCG on a laptop or modest server without provisioning ~80 GB of JSON
|
| 97 |
+
- Technological roadmapping and contribution-level citation / dependency analysis
|
| 98 |
+
- Scientific impact assessment at *contribution* granularity (not only paper-level citations)
|
| 99 |
+
- Training or evaluating **scientific prerequisite prediction** (which existing technologies enable a future contribution)
|
| 100 |
+
- Graph mining, visualization, and retrieval over scientific progress
|
| 101 |
+
- Input for automated scientific discovery systems that reason about enabling technologies
|
| 102 |
+
|
| 103 |
+
### Out-of-Scope Use
|
| 104 |
+
|
| 105 |
+
- Treating extracted nodes/edges as gold human annotations or as a complete map of a field (coverage is limited to open-access full text that the crawl reached)
|
| 106 |
+
- Using prerequisite edges as legal claims of priority, inventorship, or plagiarism
|
| 107 |
+
- Assuming every citation in a paper is a true technological prerequisite (the graph is designed to be finer-grained than raw citations, but alignment is imperfect)
|
| 108 |
+
- Deploying rankings or “impact scores” as sole criteria for hiring, funding, or clinical/scientific decisions without human review
|
| 109 |
+
|
| 110 |
+
## Dataset Structure
|
| 111 |
+
|
| 112 |
+
This repository stores SCG v1.1 as **Parquet** rather than one JSON document per paper. Content is equivalent to the official release; only the on-disk encoding changes (~80 GB → ~6 GB).
|
| 113 |
+
|
| 114 |
+
### Identifiers
|
| 115 |
+
|
| 116 |
+
- Papers are keyed by **Semantic Scholar corpus IDs**.
|
| 117 |
+
- Contributions are `"{corpus_id}.c{n}"` (e.g. `52967399.c1`).
|
| 118 |
+
|
| 119 |
+
### Conceptual schema
|
| 120 |
+
|
| 121 |
+
Each **contribution node** is a tuple \(\langle n_i, d_i, m_i \rangle\):
|
| 122 |
+
|
| 123 |
+
- `name` — short contribution title
|
| 124 |
+
- `description` — detailed generated summary
|
| 125 |
+
- `metadata` — source paper title, sections mentioning the contribution, etc.
|
| 126 |
+
|
| 127 |
+
Each **prerequisite edge** is \(\langle c_{\mathrm{pre}}, c_{\mathrm{dep}}, a_j \rangle\):
|
| 128 |
+
|
| 129 |
+
- precursor and dependent contribution IDs
|
| 130 |
+
- attributes such as a natural-language justification and the cited paper used for alignment
|
| 131 |
+
|
| 132 |
+
The official Python API in the GitHub repo still expects the original per-paper tree plus `data/metadata/paper_manifest.jsonl`. Use this Parquet dump for analysis with `datasets`, DuckDB, Polars, or Spark; convert back to the tree layout only if you need the demo API unchanged.
|
| 133 |
+
|
| 134 |
+
### Topic distribution (v1.1)
|
| 135 |
+
|
| 136 |
+
Semantic Scholar topic labels (papers may have multiple topics; percentages sum to >100%):
|
| 137 |
+
|
| 138 |
+
| Topic | Count | % | Topic | Count | % |

+
Topics with <1,000 papers omitted (e.g. Art, Geology).
|
| 153 |
+
|
| 154 |
+
### Data Splits
|
| 155 |
+
|
| 156 |
+
The graph release itself is a single corpus (no official train/dev/test split of nodes/edges).
|
| 157 |
+
|
| 158 |
+
The companion **scientific prerequisite prediction** task uses **temporally filtered backtesting** (predict precursors of later contributions from earlier graph state). Reported headline result in the paper: **0.48 MAP**. Task code/data: `task_precursor_prediction/` in the GitHub repository.
|
| 159 |
+
|
| 160 |
+
## Dataset Creation
|
| 161 |
+
|
| 162 |
+
### Curation Rationale
|
| 163 |
+
|
| 164 |
+
Paper-level citations mix background mentions with true “built upon” links. Sentence-level IE triples are usually too short and decontextualized. SCG sits in between: contribution-level nodes with long descriptions, and explained prerequisite edges.
|
| 165 |
+
|
| 166 |
+
The Parquet packaging exists so the same 6M-node / 36M-edge graph can be distributed and scanned without an 80 GB checkout.
|
| 167 |
+
|
| 168 |
+
### Source Data
|
| 169 |
+
|
| 170 |
+
**v1.0:** full ACL Anthology crawl, then backward crawl through S2ORC along cited open-access papers.
|
| 171 |
+
|
| 172 |
+
**v1.1:** alternating **forward** (impact) and **backward** (dependency) crawls through S2ORC; reference linking improved by backfilling missing S2 corpus IDs via exact title match, then re-running cross-contribution alignment.
|
| 173 |
+
|
| 174 |
+
#### Who produced the source language?
|
| 175 |
+
|
| 176 |
+
Authors of the underlying scholarly articles. Graph text (names, descriptions, edge explanations) is **model-generated** from those papers’ full text.
|
| 177 |
+
|
| 178 |
+
### Annotations
|
| 179 |
+
|
| 180 |
+
Automatically generated; not crowd-annotated. Human evaluation and alignment statistics are in the paper. Residual errors include missed contributions, spurious prerequisites, and failed or coarse paper–contribution alignment (~71% of paper references still not pinned to a specific downstream contribution).
|
| 181 |
+
|
| 182 |
+
### Personal and Sensitive Information
|
| 183 |
+
|
| 184 |
+
Records are scientific contributions from published open-access papers (titles, IDs, generated technical summaries). Author names may appear as in the source literature. No intent to include private personal data; biomedical papers may discuss clinical topics at the level already present in the publications.
|
| 185 |
+
|
| 186 |
+
## Considerations for Using the Data
|
| 187 |
+
|
| 188 |
+
### Social Impact
|
| 189 |
+
|
| 190 |
+
Useful for literature review, impact analysis, and discovery systems. Risk of amplifying venue/OA biases or treating generated “roadmaps” as authoritative history of science.
|
| 191 |
+
|
| 192 |
+
### Discussion of Biases
|
| 193 |
+
|
| 194 |
+
- Open-access and crawl-seed bias (ACL/NLP origin, then expansion)
|
| 195 |
+
- English-language scholarly bias
|
| 196 |
+
- Field mix in v1.1 is heavy in medicine
