Abstract
DBLP (https://dblp.org/) is a comprehensive collection of computer science publications from major and minor journals and conference proceedings. From this dump, we remove arXiv preprints. Our dataset consists of 1.9 million publications from 1970 to 2014 that are authored by 1.1 million authors. We have added citations among publications by combining DBLP with the AMiner dataset (https://www.aminer.org/citation) via publication titles and years. There are 6.6 million citations among publications. Author names in DBLP are disambiguated. To infer the gender of authors, we have used a method that combines the results of name-based and image-based gender detection services. Since the accuracy is very low for Chinese and Korean names, we label their gender as unknown to reduce noise in our analysis.
