Description:
This file includes the information of Journal Id (JID), Journal title (TA), and the associated Journal Descriptors (JDs) from List of Serials Indexed file lsi${YEAR}.xml. It was originally manually maintained by NLM and Susanne in 2004 training set. It was static and provided by Susanne as "jid-ta-jd.im.20031201.mod.fixed.l".
In the Java 2007 release, we derived this file from List of Serials Indexed file, lsi2006.xml. We use lsi2007.xml for the 2008 release.
Input:
By NLM:
ftp://ftp.nlm.nih.gov/online/journals/lsi2007.xml
Java File & Algorithm:
GenerateJidTaJdsFromLsi.java
parse lsi.xml file
Find xml tag <NlmUniqueID> for Journal ID, JID
Find xml tag <MedlineTA> for Journal Title, TA
Find xml tag <BroadJournalHeading> for Journal Descriptors, JDs
Find xml tag <BroadJournalHeadingList> for the begining of JDs
print out information in the new format to file: jidTaJds.out
perform unique sort on jidTaJds.out to get jidTaJds.txt
(sort -u jidTaJds.out > jidTaJds.txt)
