The fit is computed by code on every request. The call text (title, keywords, start of the official description) is compared with three sources: semantic similarity to the academic profile (50%), shared distinctive terms in YÖKSİS keywords and OpenAlex topics (25%) and publication content — titles, English abstracts and their Turkish translations (25%). Thanks to the translations, Turkish calls also meet papers written in English. Common words weigh little; below 40% is not shown. A subject hint only — not an eligibility, capacity or merit assessment. Hidden profiles are never listed.
