I would like to fetch some data from Google Scholar automatically via a matlab script. I am mostly interested in data like Google Scholar's Bibtex entries and the forward citation feature. However, it seems that there is no API for Google Scholar, is there a way to automatically fetch bibliographic data from Google Scholar using Matlab? Are there some tools or code already available for this?
If you really want to use Matlab for this (which I don't really advise), then you can look at some various web scraping examples and there is this code that actually already gets some info from Google Scholar. Basically, just good 'matlab web scraping' and off you go.
I personally would recommend using Python for this because Python is better for general programming IMHO. For instance, this guy has already done a similar thing to what you want with Python. However, if you know Matlab and don't have any interest/time for Python then follow the links in the first paragraph.
