The name list field author cannot be parsed

Open andreifoldes opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug I have many entries ignored by citr, revolving around "The name list field author cannot be parsed".

To Reproduce For example it happens for this entry: @article{Ven2020, title = {Brain-like Replay for Continual Learning with Artificial Neural Networks}, author = {van de Ven, Gido M. and Siegelmann, Hava T and Tolias, Andreas S}, year = {2020}, number = {Iclr}, pages = {1--14}, keywords = {⏳,{$\medwhitestar$},Context-modulated,Continual learning,Generative replay,Neural networks,Replay learning} } or this @article{Zeithamova2019, title = {Brain {{Mechanisms}} of {{Concept Learning}}}, author = {Zeithamova, Dagmar and Mack, Michael L. and Braunlich, Kurt and Davis, Tyler and Seger, Carol A. and {van Kesteren}, Marlieke T.R. and Wutz, Andreas}, year = {2019}, journal = {The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience}, volume = {39}, number = {42}, pages = {8259--8266}, issn = {15292401}, doi = {10/ggkd66}, keywords = {⏳,Categorization,Computational modeling,Fmri,Hippocampus,Parietal cortex,Prefrontal cortex}, }

or this

@article{VanLieshout2018, title = {Induction and Relief of Curiosity Elicit Parietal and Frontal Activity}, author = {Van Lieshout, Lieke L.F. and Vandenbroucke, Annelinde R.E. and M{"u}ller, Nils C.J. and Cools, Roshan and {de Lange}, Floris P.}, year = {2018}, journal = {Journal of Neuroscience}, volume = {38}, number = {10}, pages = {2579--2588}, issn = {15292401}, doi = {10/gc9qkx}, pmid = {29439166}, keywords = {⏳,Curiosity,Information prediction error,Insula,Outcome uncertainty,Parietal cortex,Reward}, }

While I agree there is some fishy stuff going on with the latter two, but what about the first one? Is it because they all have period in the author names?

I think citr has problems parsing multi-word last names—I also experience this error, specifically for entries that have authors with last names like "van (de(r)) ..." etc.
