screen_duplicates.Rd
This is a simple app for calculating, displaying and screening potential duplicates in bibliographic data
screen_duplicates(x, max_file_size)
An (optional) object of class data.frame
or bibliography
to open in the browser. If empty, the app will launch with no data. Data can be added within the app via the 'import' button.
Optional argument to set the maximum file size (in MB) that the app will accept.
This function launches a Shiny app in the users' default browser, allowing the user to customize their parameters for duplicate detection, and visualise the results.
This app is effectively a wrapper for find_duplicates
, with the added option to manually screen pairs of duplicates to check the results. Consequently, this is a more reliable method than extract_unique_references
of dealing with the duplicates identified by find_duplicates
, and for testing whether that function has returned sensible results for a given dataset.
screen_titles
or screen_abstracts
for manual screening of individual articles.
