Abstract
In this paper, we compare the performance of several popular pre-trained reference extraction and segmentation toolkits combined in different pipeline configurations on three different datasets. The extraction is end-to-end, i.e. the input is PDF documents, and the output is parsed reference objects. The evaluation is for reference strings and individual fields in the reference objects using alignment by identical fields and close-to-identical values. Our results show that Grobid and AnyStyle perform best of all compared tools, although one may want to use them in combination. Our work is meant to serve as a reference for researchers interested in applying out-of-the-box reference extraction and -parsing tools, for example, as a preprocessing step to a more complex research question. Our detailed results on different datasets with results for individual parsed fields will allow them to focus on aspects that are particularly important to them.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal on Digital Libraries (IJDL) examines the theory and practice of acquisition definition organization management preservation and dissemination of digital information via global networking. It covers all aspects of digital libraries (DLs) from large-scale heterogeneous data and information management & access to linking and connectivity to security privacy and policies to its application use and evaluation.The scope of IJDL includes but is not limited to: The FAIR principle and the digital libraries infrastructure Findable: Information access and retrieval; semantic search; data and information exploration; information navigation; smart indexing and searching; resource discovery Accessible: visualization and digital collections; user interfaces; interfaces for handicapped users; HCI and UX in DLs; Security and privacy in DLs; multimodal access Interoperable: metadata (definition management curation integration); syntactic and semantic interoperability; linked data Reusable: reproducibility; Open Science; sustainability profitability repeatability of research results; confidentiality and privacy issues in DLs Digital Library Architectures including heterogeneous and dynamic data management; data and repositories Acquisition of digital information: authoring environments for digital objects; digitization of traditional content Digital Archiving and Preservation Digital Preservation and curation Digital archiving Web Archiving Archiving and preservation Strategies AI for Digital Libraries Machine Learning for DLs Data Mining in DLs NLP for DLs Applications of Digital Libraries Digital Humanities Open Data and their reuse Scholarly DLs (incl. bibliometrics altmetrics) Epigraphy and Paleography Digital Museums Future trends in Digital Libraries Definition of DLs in a ubiquitous digital library world Datafication of digital collections Interaction and user experience (UX) in DLs Information visualization Collection understanding Privacy and security Multimodal user interfaces Accessibility (or "Access for users with disabilities") UX studies
