  In the implementation and use of research information systems (RIS) in
scientific institutions, text data mining and semantic technologies are a key
technology for the meaningful use of large amounts of data. It is not the
collection of data that is difficult, but the further processing and
integration of the data in RIS. Data is usually not uniformly formatted and
structured, such as texts and tables that cannot be linked. These include
various source systems with their different data formats such as project and
publication databases, CERIF and RCD data model, etc. Internal and external
data sources continue to develop. On the one hand, they must be constantly
synchronized and the results of the data links checked. On the other hand, the
texts must be processed in natural language and certain information extracted.
Using text data mining, the quality of the metadata is analyzed and this
identifies the entities and general keywords. So that the user is supported in
the search for interesting research information. The information age makes it
easier to store huge amounts of data and increase the number of documents on
the internet, in institutions' intranets, in newswires and blogs is
overwhelming. Search engines should help to specifically open up these sources
of information and make them usable for administrative and research purposes.
Against this backdrop, the aim of this paper is to provide an overview of text
data mining techniques and the management of successful data quality for RIS in
the context of open data and open science in scientific institutions and
libraries, as well as to provide ideas for their application. In particular,
solutions for the RIS will be presented.
