A Similarity Metric, Rubric and Unified Hierarchy for Biomedical Publication Types and Study Designs

2026-01-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> Our goal is to unify the 72 biomedical publication types and study designs (collectively, PTs) into a single rubric and hierarchy. <h4>Materials and Methods</h4> This is carried out in a data-driven manner by computing pairwise similarities of each PT against all others to form a similarity matrix. By performing hierarchical clustering we place each PT in a specific category and collect these...
