Accuracy of simple, initials-based methods for author name disambiguation
作者：
Highlights：
• We estimate the accuracy of simple author disambiguation methods using simulations.
• We show that these basic methods already have high accuracy (97%).
• We introduce a new simple method that in many cases outperforms the traditional ones.
• We provide guidelines and criteria for the choice of simple disambiguation method.
