Session Goal

The session aimed to develop a structured strategy for weekly paper submissions and explore API documentation for academic research integration.

Key Activities

  • Weekly Paper Submission Strategy: Developed a structured approach for submitting one paper per week, focusing on roles, quality gates, and submission cadence to ensure efficiency and quality.
  • API Documentation Search: Conducted search queries for various academic paper APIs, including arXiv, SSRN, NBER, RePEc, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, and Crossref, to gather documentation and RSS feed parameters.
  • Economic Research RSS Feeds: Searched for RSS feeds related to economic research papers from CEPR, IMF, BIS, and ECB.
  • Ingestion Stack Design: Outlined a comprehensive ingestion stack for economic research papers, detailing sources, polling plans, normalization processes, enrichment strategies, ranking methodologies, and stub page generation.
  • Strategic Foresight in Research Operations: Explored the concept of strategic foresight in research operations, detailing its components and suggesting potential names for this function.

Achievements

  • Established a clear weekly paper submission strategy.
  • Gathered essential API documentation and RSS feed parameters for various academic research APIs.
  • Designed a detailed ingestion stack for economic research papers.

Pending Tasks

  • Implement the ingestion stack for economic research papers.
  • Finalize the strategic foresight function name and integrate it into research operations.
