ABSTRACT:
Duplicate publications are generally considered unethical.  In practice 
they are usually discovered by careful reviewers, editors, and readers in a 
totally unsystematic manner.  With the availability of large bibliographic 
databases in electronical form, we are now able to explore systematic and 
extensive evaluation of publications for duplicates.  In this paper we 
discuss a taxonomy of duplicate detection.  A technique is proposed using 
the title and author name information only.  Our approach has been applied 
to three different scenarios in the area of ophthalmology.  In all cases we 
could gain interesting knowledge that would not have been possible without 
an automatic systematic evaluation of large bibliographic databases.
