The CORD-19 dataset of COVID-19 publications is published weekly at CORD-19 Historical Releases.
In order to understand the distribution of authors on papers in this dataset, this repository:
- requests data from the latest published dataset,
- calculates author statistics on publications in that dataset,
- appends the latest statistics to the data file
