Abstract

Building on the Open Research Knowledge Graph as an infrastructure for the production, curation, and publication of FAIR scientific knowledge, we present a concept that models original articles and the corresponding expression in the ORKG as independent and interlinked FDOs by organizing the content describing an article into semantic units.
