The (Innovation Information Initiative) is a data collaborative including complete standard global datasets about patents and scholarship, open to the public and focused on open-access and freely-licensed data, supporting contributions of new data facets and derivative or synthetic data linked to those standard datasets.

Near-term projects

The Lens Lab -- a portal to Lens.org, hosted at MIT and providing bulk access to data and metadata about publications by MIT faculty and students, allowing browsing that data, training models on it, and updating + cleaning it.

Target: a public-facing portal by December 2019

A metrics catalog of bibliographic metrics, for papers, authors, journals, funders. Drawing on altmetric and scaling science work.

Target: a public interface for choosing and evaluating metrics on a selected citation graph, by spring 2020

Characterizing a collaboration graph: designing functions that compute the structure of a collaboration graph, providing a structure as descriptive as the current set of ~40 hand-constructed metrics.

Target: ?
