Abstract

Curricula from the Lattes Platform are a vast source of information for the creation and analysis of researchers' social networks. However, due to the large amount of data, the manual filling-in, and the use of semi-structured data, there are several challenges in the use of Lattes as a source of data. This paper presents a database produced from the mining of more than one million Brazilian Lattes curricula. Moreover, it highlights some descriptive characteristics and relationships among these curricula and among the knowledge areas, directions and challenges to the production and analyzes of social networks generated from these data.
