ResearchGate is the leading social network for scientists. It offers tools and applications for researchers to interact and collaborate. ResearchGate offers a Science 2.0 platform designed for researchers. The platform provides a global scientific web-based environment in which scientists can interact, exchange knowledge and collaborate with researchers of different fields.
The results of ResearchGate’s new search engine, called ReFind, are not merely based on keywords, but selected in an “intelligent†way based on semantic, contextual correlations.
ResearchGate’s search tool enables researchers to find groups, papers, fellow researchers and others both within and outside of ResearchGate without having to read through dozens of irrelevant search results. The “similar abstract search”-functionality allows users to upload abstracts and find thematically related papers within the platform and in external databases such as PubMed.
Individual users as well as groups of potential interest to the researcher are automatically suggested to the member on his/ her personal ResearchGate interface via the “semantic relations”- functionality. This feature combines data from profiles such as research projects or personal skills in highly complicated algorithms. Researchers get to know colleagues worldwide that are working on similar subjects. Scientists connected via ResearchGate are now able to cooperate using all of the platform’s applications.
