How it works

The Elsevier Fingerprint Engine creates Fingerprint indices:

  1. The Elsevier Fingerprint Engine applies a variety of Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to mine the text of scientific documents, including publication abstracts, funding announcements and awards, project summaries, patents, proposals, applications and other sources.

  2. Key concepts that define the text are identified in thesauri spanning all the major disciplines.

  3. The Elsevier Fingerprint Engine creates an index of weighted terms that defines the text, known as a Fingerprint index.
