Every citation between the decisions in gfcc_decisions, grouped into citation blocks: an uninterrupted run of cited decisions inside one decision, the hyperedge of Coupette, Hartung and Katz (2024). One row per citation, dated by both decisions, so backward citations are the rows with date_citing > date_cited.

Usage

gfcc_citations

Format

A data frame with 77,284 rows and 5 columns:

citing

Key of the citing decision, the source of the block.

cited

Key of the cited decision, the node.

block

Citation block identifier, citing:index, the hyperedge.

date_citing

Date of the citing decision, the time of the block.

date_cited

Date of the cited decision.
