+Typical problems arising in the process of compiling a citation graph dataset
+are data aquisition and citation matching. Data acquisition itself can take
+different forms: bibliographic metadata can contain explicit reference data as
+provided by publishers and aggregators; this data can be relatively consistent
+when looked at per source, but may vary in style and comprehensiveness when
+looked at as a whole. Another way of acquiring bibliographic metadata is to
+analyze a source document, such as a PDF (or its text), directly. Tools in this
+category are often based on conditial random
+fields~\citep{lafferty2001conditional} and have been implemented in projects
+such as ParsCit~\citep{councill2008parscit},
+Cermine~\citep{tkaczyk2014cermine}, EXCITE~\citep{hosseini2019excite}
+or GROBID~\citep{lopez2009grobid}.
+
+The problem of citation matching is relatively simple when common, persistent
+identifiers are present in the data. Complications mount, when there is
+\emph{Identity Uncertainty}, that is ``objects are not labeled with unique
+identifiers or when those identifiers may not be perceived
+perfectly''~\citep{pasula2003identity}. CiteSeer has been an early project
+concerned with citation matching~\citep{giles1998citeseer}. A taxonomy of
+potential issues common in the matching process has been compiled
+by~\citep{olensky2016evaluation}. Additional care is required, when the
+citation matching process is done at scale~\citep{fedoryszak2013large}. The
+problem of heterogenity has been discussed in the context of datasets
+by~\citep{mathiak2015challenges}.
