# DBLP Search Skill Query the DBLP computer science bibliography for publications, authors, and venues. ## When to Use - "Find papers by this CS researcher" - "List publications from ICML 2024" - "Search for papers on transformer architectures" - "Get author's full publication list" ## When NOT to Use - Non-CS publications (use semantic-scholar or openalex) - Citation counts or impact metrics (use semantic-scholar) - Full-text paper access (use arxiv-search) ## Setup No API key required. Public REST API. ## API Base ``` https://dblp.org/search/ ``` ## Common Commands ### Search Publications ```bash # Search by keyword curl -s "https://dblp.org/search/publ/api?q=attention+is+all+you+need&format=json&h=5" | python3 -c " import json,sys data=json.load(sys.stdin) for hit in data['result']['hits'].get('hit',[]): info=hit['info'] print(f\"Title: {info.get('title','')}\") print(f\"Authors: {', '.join(a.get('text','') for a in info.get('authors',{}).get('author',[]))}\") print(f\"Venue: {info.get('venue','')}, Year: {info.get('year','')}\") print() " # Filter by year curl -s "https://dblp.org/search/publ/api?q=large+language+model+year%3A2024&format=json&h=10" ``` ### Search Authors ```bash # Find author curl -s "https://dblp.org/search/author/api?q=Yoshua+Bengio&format=json&h=5" # Get author's publication list curl -s "https://dblp.org/pid/b/YoshuaBengio.xml?format=json" | python3 -c " import json,sys data=json.load(sys.stdin) pubs=data.get('dblpperson',{}).get('r',[])[:10] for p in pubs: entry=list(p.values())[0] if isinstance(p,dict) else {} print(f\"{entry.get('year','')} - {entry.get('title','')}\") " ``` ### Search Venues ```bash # Find conference/journal curl -s "https://dblp.org/search/venue/api?q=NeurIPS&format=json&h=5" ``` ### Pagination ```bash # h = results per page, f = first result index curl -s "https://dblp.org/search/publ/api?q=graph+neural+network&format=json&h=20&f=0" curl -s "https://dblp.org/search/publ/api?q=graph+neural+network&format=json&h=20&f=20" ``` ## Notes - Free, no API key needed - Covers CS conferences, journals, and workshops comprehensively - Author disambiguation built-in (PID-based) - Supports XML and JSON output formats - Rate limit: be respectful, no official limit - Does NOT include citation counts (use Semantic Scholar for that)
