Details

Hugging Face has launched a feature, through a partnership with DataCite, that allows direct generation of DOI (Digital Object Identifier) for models and datasets on the Hub.

A DOI is a string that uniquely identifies a digital object, linked to metadata such as the URL, version, creation date, and description of the model or dataset. Through this, researchers and developers can gain the following benefits.

  • Permanent link provision: Maintains a unique identifier for accessing datasets and models even if the URL changes.
  • Easy citation: Academic citation is made easier through the 'Cite this model/dataset' button on the model/dataset page.
  • Version control: When a new version is released, the DOI can be updated to accurately reference a specific version.

Users can directly request a DOI from the repo settings on the Hub, and the generated DOI is permanently preserved along with the metadata of the corresponding object.
