One could hypothetically scrape all of dblp. Might be some challenges with stale data or affiliations with multiple names etc.

Data Collection Challenges and Licensing Issues in AI Projects
By
–
I think collecting the data is the major challenge. Ironically, despite the data being crowdsourced, and initially taken from someone else's repo, I believe it is against the license terms to fork that data (I am not a lawyer, so what do I know)

Meta Research Building Open Source AI Alternative
By
–
Maybe someone at Meta Research could be tasked with building an open source alternative? It would surely give Meta Research more prominence, containing many strong researchers and thus being near the top of the list.

CSRankings Limitations and Need for Better Academic AI Alternatives
By
–
Yes. I have significant issues with various design choices of CSRankings. I wish there was a better and more customizable alternative (toggle people with industry on/off if you like?). It's, for better or worse, the best we got right now, and I get some utility from it.

Very cool support of @WaterlooMath from David Ash. David is a Waterloo alum, and three-time Putnam Fellow. Only 31 people have ever been a Putnam Fellow >= 3 times.

Building an AI Industry Rankings System with Open Licensing
By
–
A valid complaint. Someone should consider building a CSIndustryrankings. Likely someone from Google, which would probably be on top of such a ranking. But release it with a more restrictive license so we could make a CSRankings equivalent that is receptive to the community 🙂

CS Rankings PR approval delays and restrictive license concerns
By
–
… I submitted a PR in August (
https://
github.com/emeryberger/CS
rankings/pull/4875
…), immediately after this post soliciting pull requests (
https://
x.com/CSrankings/sta
tus/1558140188936884226
…). Still not merged.
4. The license is CC Attribution NoDerivates, which gives the owner dicator power. Still, I like its utility as a list. -
Open Source Project Management Issues and Research Incentives
By

On the negative side, my complaints are:
1. Certain design choices that are norm inducing (more publications does not imply a better researcher)
2. The owner is unresponsive to requests for additions (

3. The owner is slow in merging PRs… 1/2 -
CS Rankings: Essential Directory for Computer Science Faculty
By
–
I think @CSrankings is a helpful resource. I don't care about the "rankings". But I like that it's a single place to find a *list* of people active in a research area. If you're a faculty in CS, you should make sure you're listed there. https://

When Should Authors Submit Papers to Top Conferences?
By
–
Suppose some conference (top in its field) has a 25% acceptance rate. An author honestly believes there is a p% chance their submission is accepted. If p = 0, they shouldn't submit, it just wastes reviewer and author time. At what p is submitting "reasonable"? Explain why below.
