Publication venue recommendation using profiles based on clustering

Abstract

In this paper we study the venue recommendation problem in order to help researchers to identify a journal or conference to submit a given paper. A common approach to tackle this problem is to build profiles defining the scope of each venue. Then, these profiles are compared against the target paper. In our approach we will study how clustering techniques can be used to construct topic-based profiles and use an Information Retrieval based approach to obtain the final recommendations. Additionally, we will explore how the use of authorship, representing a complementary piece of information, helps to improve the recommendations.
