\section{Related Work}
-Two typical problems in citation graph development are related to 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 conditional random
-fields~\citep{lafferty2001conditional} and have been implemented in projects
-such as ParsCit~\citep{councill2008parscit},
