What's inside IvySci

  1. Overview of citation support in ivySCI and ivyCite

    ivySCI and ivyCite provide detailed guidance for citing various types of literature to ensure correct reference generation. While the documentation primarily uses GB/T7714—2015 (National Standard) and APA as examples, the methods described are applicable to other formats such as Harvard, Elsevier, and AMA. ivyCite supports tens of thousands of Chinese and English journal formats. Custom format requests are available via administrators, though ivySCI limits custom formatting to annual members.

    • Free Chat: General purpose assistance, format conversion, and search help.
    • Paraphrasing (复述): Rewording original text to avoid direct quotation in literature citations.
    • Polishing (润色): Correcting grammar and vocabulary errors in English or Chinese for better academic expression.
    • Translation (翻译): Providing natural, human-like translations that are easier to understand than standard machine translation.
    • Expansion (扩写): Enriching text content while maintaining the original semantics and style.
    • Search Term Optimization (检索词优化): Analyzing and optimizing search queries to improve retrieval efficiency.
    • Smart Journal Selection (智能选刊): Suggesting the most suitable journals based on a provided article title or abstract.

  6. Write an effective academic paper introduction

    A strong introduction should transition the reader from a broad context to a specific research problem, clearly stating the study's purpose and significance to maintain reader engagement and justify the research.

  7. Collaborate on research projects using ivySCI project sharing

    ivySCI v5.0 allows research teams to share projects in real-time. This feature ensures that new literature, notes, and tags are automatically synchronized across all team members, preventing duplicate imports and providing version control for multi-author studies. The feature is currently free for all members.

  8. Understand APA 7 Citation Basics

    APA style, developed by the American Psychological Association, is widely used in social sciences (psychology, education, sociology) and natural sciences. It utilizes an Author-Year in-text citation system paired with a complete reference list at the end of the document to ensure readability and consistency.

  9. Understand the refund policy for IvySci accounts

    IvySci provides free accounts for users to evaluate the service before purchasing. Refunds are generally not granted for reasons such as the service not meeting specific needs, lack of expected features, or the introduction of new/optimized services.

    Refunds are only available in cases of service failure caused by the provider's fault, such as server outages resulting in inability to access the service or data loss. Upon a successful refund request, the account will be downgraded to a standard free account. The refund amount is calculated based on the duration of the service unavailability and will not exceed the original amount paid (excluding any complimentary credits).

  11. Understand Yanfei's project-based literature management structure

    In Yanfei, literature is managed using Projects. Folders are nested within Projects, rather than Projects being nested within folders.

  12. Best practices for managing literature with projects and tags

    Yanfei recommends a combination of projects and tags to organize research materials. Projects should be used to group all literature related to a specific paper or goal, allowing users to import documents without worrying about immediate categorization. Tags should then be used within those projects to classify literature and notes, keeping the organization structured and easily searchable.
