• Improved date logic

  • Every now and then, you might have seen publications with odd publication dates. Especially in timeline charts, those can become quite evident. Usually this is caused by conflicting publication dates in the raw data. We have improved our data logics to match an even larger number of articles to a more realistic publication date.
