Create degreeDiscrepancyScoringStrategy

[paulalbert1]

0. Create following properties in application.properties.

discrepancyDegreeYear-BachelorThreshold: -1
discrepancyDegreeYear-BachelorScore: -8
discrepancyDegreeYear-YearWhichPhDStudentsStartedToAuthorMorePapers: 1998
discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralThreshold1: -6
discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralThreshold2: -13
discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralScore: -8

Note: we're going to use DoctoralThreshold1 as the discrepancy prior to 1998, and DoctoralThreshold2 as the discrepancy post 1998. (We need this, because starting in around 1998, PhD students started to publish earlier relative to the year of their degree.)

1. Get year of publication from article from article.year.

2. Get identity.degreeyear.bacheloryear and identity.degreeyear.doctoralyear.

3. If identity.degreeyear.bacheloryear is not null, is article.year < discrepancyDegreeYear-BachelorThreshold + identity.degreeyear.bacheloryear?

• If yes, output article.year - identity.degreeYear.bachelorYear, and score, which is stored in application.properties. (Unit test PMID: 132454 for ccole)

discrepancyDegreeYear-Bachelor: -10 /* example */
discrepancyDegreeYear-BachelorScore: -8

• If no, output article.year - identity.degreeYear.bachelorYear, and a default score of 0.

discrepancyDegreeYear-Bachelor: 22  /* example */
discrepancyDegreeYear-BachelorScore: 0

4. If identity.degreeyear.doctoralyear is not null, which year is identity.degreeyear.doctoralyear?

• If doctoralYear < discrepancyDegreeYear-YearWhichPhDStudentsStartedToAuthorMorePapers, go to 5.
• Else, go to 6

5. Is article.year < identity.degreeyear.doctoralyear + discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralThreshold1?

• If yes, output article.year - identity.degreeYear.doctoralYear, and score, which is stored in application.properties. (Unit test PMID: 6075961 for ccole)

discrepancyDegreeYear-Doctoral: -26  /* example */
discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralScore: -8

• If no, output article.year - identity.degreeyear.doctoralyear, and default score of 0.

discrepancyDegreeYear-Doctoral: 22  /* example */
discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralScore: 0

6. Is article.year < identity.degreeyear.doctoralyear + discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralThreshold2?

• If yes, output article.year - identity.degreeYear.doctoralYear, and score, which is stored in application.properties. (Unit test PMID: lud2005 for 13476020)

discrepancyDegreeYear-Doctoral: -49  /* example */
discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralScore: -8

• If no, output article.year - identity.degreeyear.doctoralYear, and default score of 0.

discrepancyDegreeYear-Doctoral: 22  /* example */
discrepancyDegreeYear-DoctoralScore: 0
