Hi there,

Well, that's a tricky question to answer! :)

At the moment we use DOIs to link papers / citations, and get our information on DOIs from crossref (https://www.crossref.org/).

So every DOI there is also in our system (and any citation coming from a source without a DOI currently won't be picked up).

From crossref we also have metadata on which publications a given paper references, so we can always show information on how many publications cite a given paper ("traditional citations").

As for our database of Smart Citations (the extracted in-text citation statements) -- the answer is that it depends on our ability to access full-text articles to actually do the citation statement extraction. We're constantly growing in this area through new indexing agreements with publishers and so on.

To your specific question about that DOI, here is the corresponding scite report for that paper: https://scite.ai/reports/a-unified-framework-for-coupling-dZ...

I see that we identified 371 distinct citing publications (and extracted 374 in-text citation statements from those publications).

Can you let me know where you saw it say "no citations"? That sounds like a bug... I'll take a look. You can email me here: [email protected]
