The development of Docear is paused for now. However, I have other exciting projects ongoing. To receive updates on these projects, please follow my new Twitter account

Here at Docear and Mr. DLib we have some open positions for researchers in the field of recommender systems. More precisely, we have:

* One PhD position (4 years) or research internship (3-12 months) at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland

* Numerous (potential) scholarships at Trinity College Dublin and the National Institute of Informatics Tokyo

Are you a student or Postdoc, who wants to do some research and/or software development in the field of recommender systems, user modeling, web services, and digital libraries? Then join Docear for 2-24 months in Tokyo, Copenhagen, or Konstanz.

2015 has been a rather quiet year for Docear, but 2016 will be different. We have lots of ideas for new projects, and even better – we have funding to pay at least 1 Master or PhD student, to help us implementing the ideas. There is also a good chance that we get more funding, maybe also for Bachel…

After releasing the Beta some weeks ago, we made some minor adjustments, and consider the current version 1.2 as stable.

Proving the date of origin of anything electronic - for patent or copyright purposes, perhaps - has been well nigh impossible. But that has now changed.

Any JAVA software developers you want a fun and challenging job in Munich (Germany)? Read on here http://www.docear.org/2015/04/21/we-need-java-software-developers-munich-germany-and-home-office/

As announced recently, the development of Docear will slow down somewhat, as our core team has to focus on other projects for making a living. For instance, I (Joeran, co-founder of Docear) moved to Munich to work as product manager for HRS Holidays (previously known as HolidayInsider). Working at H…

What to do with the development of Docear4LibreOffice? Please discuss: http://www.docear.org/2014/10/23/how-to-proceed-with-the-development-of-the-docear4libreoffice-add-on/

More than half a year ago, we started a call for donation to pay a freelancer who wanted to develop an add-on for LibreOffice and OpenOffice, comparable to Docear4Word. Originally, we estimated that it would take about 2 months before the work was completed, or at least a decent demo version was rea…

ACM Conference on Recommender Systems in Foster City, CA, and some photos from the fleet week in San Francisco.

we relased a new version of the Google Scholar PDF Metadata library. If you had problems recently to request metadata from Google Scholar, check this out: http://www.docear.org/2014/10/13/update-of-the-google-scholar-pdf-metadata-retrieval/

In the past few weeks, several users reported that Docear could not retrieve metadata more from Google Scholar any more. It took as a while, but now we found and fixed the problem – hopefully. We need your help to test if the fixed version really works well for all of you (it’s very hard to test for…

HOWTO: Import bibliographic data from publisher's websites to Docear (works with PubMed, IEEE, ACM, Elsevier, ...) http://www.docear.org/2014/07/22/howto-import-references-from-webpages-e-g-pubmed-ieee-acm/

Compared to several other reference managers, Docear lacks a feature to directly import references from the Web. For instance, if you visit the detail page of a research article on a publisher’s website, you might wish to directly import the bibliographic data of that article to Docear. Many publish…
