[FEATURE] More robust author selection #17

Closed mfouesneau closed 1 year ago

mfouesneau commented 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The current author selection is based only on their last names. It generates a lot of False positives with common names.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be good to be able to use the initials of the authors. (Some authors may not conform to their listed name on the MPIA Mitarbeiter list)

Describe alternatives you've considered Using affiliation is impossible to ensure an author is from a given institute. Journals do not have a standard linking of the authors, and ArXiv does not parse affiliations. Since we want information on the day, ADS is also not an option.
