In recent years, due to the construction and development of open research data sharing platform, such as Zenodo and Science Data Bank, the traditional review papers have not meet the requirement of the era development any more, especially under the background of the increasingly intensive competition and more strict regulatory environment. The traditional review papers are only suitable for textbooks, which must be changed to Dissertation papers to meet the requirements of international journal publishing.
Dissertation obtains empirical data by searching and collecting data (mainly by quoting the published data of others and obtaining the use license). Then re-editing and re-calculating data creates new original research papers as dissertation, which are suitable for the first year postgraduate study (Research based) or for the Master dissertation (Coursework based). The main requirements are as follows:
1、 Relevant empirical data sourcing from at least three published papers in the database should be cited. Among them, the empirical data sourcing from each paper shall not exceed one-third of the dissertation re-edited. Otherwise, the originality of this dissertation will be reduced;
2、 Pictures and tables are converted into each other. For example, if the result data of the cited paper is described in picture format, it must be converted into table form and placed in your own paper;
3、 Clearly quoting the source near each empirical data; you must pay for the license for data use if needed;
4、 Re-describing the results of the cited empirical data with different sentences, or re-calculating the cited empirical data with new methods, getting different results as to show your own innovation;
5、 In the discussion section of dissertation, the conclusions obtained by comparing and contrasting with other papers must be significantly different from the original cited papers to show theoretical innovation. This is very important. It is often the key difference between grade A and B.
6、 For publishing in my own common journal, a dissertation research can be divided into an original essay/proposal report (including review content) and an original research paper. The total number of words must exceed 20 000 English words. If peer review is required (but not compulsory), a report of science and technology novelty test is also required. The average length in words of articles published in common journal must be at least double of articles in recognized kernel journal, to meet relevant requirement.
There is an awesome access to various public datasets: https://github.com/awesomedata/awesome-public-datasets ; Before this research, the research project is strongly required to be formally registered via Open Science Framework (OSF), which is free and self-archived.

近年来由于开放型研究数据共享平台的建设和兴起,比如Zenodo、Science Data Bank之类研究数据共享平台的发展,传统的综述类论文已经显得不再符合时代发展,尤其是在竞争与监管环境日益激烈和严格的背景下,传统的综述类论文仅仅适合教科书,必须变更为Dissertation论文才能符合国际期刊的发表要求。
Dissertation论文是通过收集资料的方式获取实证性数据(主要通过引用他人已经发表的论文数据,并且取得相关数据使用许可),自己重新编辑、计算,创作出新的原创型实证性论文。可以适用于研究生一年级阶段中(研究类)科研基础性训练或是硕士论文(授课类)。要求如下:
一、至少要引用三篇以上相关的、已经发表在数据库中论文的实证性数据,其中每篇原论文中被转载的实证数据在自己重新创作、编辑的原创型论文中不得超过三分之一。否则自己重新创作的论文原创度则会打折扣;
二、图表之间相互转换。比如如果原论文的结果数据是图片格式描述,则必须转换成表格形式放在自己的论文中;
三、在每个实证数据旁清晰标注引用出处;如果需要购买许可,则必须付费取得许可;
四、用不同的语句重新描述原始实证数据的计算结果,或者用新的方法重新计算原始实证数据,得出不同的结果,以示自己的创新;
五、在discussion一节中,通过与其它论文进行对比对照得出的结论必须与原始被引用的论文显著不同,以示理论创新,或者提出新的自然科学规律。这点是很重要的,往往是A等与B等的区别;
六、对于我自己主办的普通专业期刊,一篇Dissertation论文可以拆分为一篇原创型研究计划报告(含综述内容)和一篇原创型实证性论文。论文篇幅的总字数必须超过20 000个英文字数。如果是组织评审(非必须),还需要科技查新报告。一般来说,发表在普通型期刊的论文必须在平均字数上超过核心期刊论文至少两倍,才能满足相关要求。
