Inventor(s) include Dr. Parikshit Mahalle; Jayesh Waskar; Ayush Walunj; Eshwari Wasankar; Samruddhi Walunjkar; Shreya Wankhade; and Girish Watpal.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The UN developed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) represent a global blueprint for peace, prosperity and sustainability for people and society, yet mapping academic contributions to the SDGs targets and indicators remains un touched and inaccurate. Traditional citation metrics and basic visualizations fail to capture the complex relationships between research outputs and sustainability indicators, creating a gap which the proposed system effectively bridges. The system pro poses a multidimensional approach using bibliometric analysis along with the advanced NLP based clustering technique where each cluster represents a single SDG. Evaluating the researcher's complete publication history against the SDGs helps highlight their contributions to global challenges which traditional metrics lack. Moreover at this point there is no one stop multidimensional research impact analysis platform particularly in the context of SDG and traditional citation metric evaluation. By connecting publication data directly to SDG frameworks, the system transforms abstract impact assessment into advanced data insights. The system offers significant value to academic institutions evaluating research portfolios, funding agencies assessing grant applications and policymakers that help in evidence-based strategic decision-making."
