AB Although listed only once at the end of a scientific article, a reference can be
mentioned repeatedly within the citing article. These references are defined as
multiply mentioned references (MMRs). MMRs are universal in scientific writing.
Using the references in Journal of Informetrics as an example, approximately 1/4 of
the references are mentioned multiple times. The aim of this research was to
provide a detailed understanding of MMRs, including their abundance within the
citing paper, their locations and distributions, and their citation contexts in the
first and subsequent mentions. The results show that longer articles are more
likely to mention references multiply, and self-citing references are more likely
to be mentioned multiple times. Normally, the multiple mentions of a reference tend
to be located in the same section and quite close to each other. In terms of
citation context, reference re-citations usually serve as supplementary
explanations of their first-time mention within the citing paper. (C) 2017 Elsevier

AB The use of bibliometrics is gradually extending to all disciplines. It is
particularly suitable for science mapping at a time when the emphasis on empirical
contributions is producing voluminous, fragmented, and controversial research
streams. Science mapping is complex and unwieldly because it is multi-step and
frequently requires numerous and diverse software tools, which are not all
necessarily freeware. Although automated workflows that integrate these software
tools into an organized data flow are emerging, in this paper we propose a unique
open-source tool, designed by the authors, called bibliometrix, for performing
comprehensive science mapping analysis. bibliometrix supports a recommended
workflow to perform bibliometric analyses. As it is programmed in R, the proposed
tool is flexible and can be rapidly upgraded and integrated with other statistical
R-packages. It is therefore useful in a constantly changing science such as
bibliometrics. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper addresses software citation by analyzing how R and its packages are
cited in a sample of PLoS papers. A codebook is developed to support a content
analysis of the fulltext papers. Our results indicate that the software R and its
packages are inconsistently cited, as is the case with other scientific software.
The inconsistency derives partly from the variety of citation standards currently
used for software, and partly from fact that these standards are not well followed
by authors on multiple levels. This work sheds light on the future development of
software citation standards, especially given the present landscape of conflicting
citation practices. Moreover, our approach furnishes a possible blueprint for
dealing with the granularity of software entities in scientific citation: we
consider citations of the core R software environment, of specific R packages, and
of individual functions. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This article offers a mathematical model that is in line with three-dimensional
informetrics. We show that the geometric distribution - often found in informetric
processes of use to model the distributions of book loans in libraries, of
citations, or of journals downloads in scientific databases - plays a surprising
role. To show this, we infer the existence of another distribution, which we have
called "distribution of structure". Distributions of use and distributions of
structure are the two key processes in our three-dimensional IPP (Information
Production Process). Furthermore, we indirectly introduce the time dependence of
these distributions through the concept of information obsolescence. To demonstrate
the theorems, we use the properties of probability-generating functions (PGF). (C)

AB This work provides an in-depth analysis of the relation between the different
types of collaboration and research productivity, showing how both are influenced
by some personal and organizational variables. By applying different cross-lagged
panel models, we are able to analyze the relationship among research productivity,
collaboration and their determinants. In particular, we show that only
collaboration at intramural and domestic level has a positive effect on research
productivity. Differently, all the forms of collaboration are positively affected
by research productivity. The results can favor the reexamination of the theories
related to these issues, and inform policies that would be more suited to their
management. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Bridging centrality as an indicator to measure the 'bridging role' of
actors in networks: An application to the European Nanotechnology
co-publication network
LA English
DT Article
DE Bridging centrality; Nanoscience and nanotechnology; Co-publications;
R&D networks; Actor positioning; S&T indicators
ID KNOWLEDGE SPILLOVERS; REGIONS
AB In the recent past, we can observe growing interest in STI studies in the notion
of positioning indicators, shifting emphasis to actors in the innovation process
and their R&D inter-linkages with other actors. In relation to this, we suggest a
new approach for assessing the positioning of actors relying on the notion of
bridging centrality (BC). Based on the concept of bridging paths, i.e. a set of two
links connecting three actors across three different aggregate nodes (e.g.
organisations, or regions), we argue that triangulation in networks is a key issue
for knowledge recombinations and the extension of an actor's knowledge base. As
bridges are most often not empirically observable at the individual level of
research teams, we propose an approximated BC measure that provides a flexible
framework for dealing with the aggregation problem in positioning actors. Hereby,
BC is viewed as a function of an aggregate node's (i) participation intensity in
the network, (ii) its openness to other nodes (i.e. the relative outward
orientation of network links), and iii) the diversification of links to other
nodes. In addition, we propose a generalised version of the BC measure that
accounts for different node categories. An illustrative example on the European
Nanotechnology co-publication network observed at the level of organisations
demonstrates the usefulness and complementary interpretation power in comparison to
conventional centrality measures. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

citations

ID BIBLIOGRAPHIC NETWORKS; AUTHOR RANKINGS
AB In this article some recent disputes about the usefulness of PageRank-based
methods for the task of identifying influential researchers in citation networks
are discussed. In particular, it focuses on the performance of these methods in
relation to simple citation counts. With the aim of comparing these two classes of
ranking methods, we analyze a large citation network of authors based on almost two
million computer science papers and apply four PageRank-based and citations-based
techniques to rank authors by importance throughout the period 1990-2014 on a
yearly basis. We use ACM SIGMOD E. F. Codd Innovations Award and ACM A. M. Turing
Award winners in our baseline lists of outstanding scientists and define four
relevance weighting schemes with some predictive power for the ranking methods to
increase the relevance of researchers winning in the future. We conclude that
citations-based rankings perform better for Codd Award winners, but PageRank-based
methods do so for Turing Award recipients when using absolute ranks and PageRank-
based rankings outperform the citations-based techniques for both Codd and Turing
Award laureates when relative ranks are considered. However, the two ranking groups
show smaller differences if more weight is assigned to the relevance of future
awardees. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Normalised citation counts are routinely used to assess the average impact of
research groups or nations. There is controversy over whether confidence intervals
for them are theoretically valid or practically useful. In response, this article
introduces the concept of a group's underlying research capability to produce
impactful research. It then investigates whether confidence intervals could delimit
the underlying capability of a group in practice. From 123120 confidence interval
comparisons for the average citation impact of the national outputs of ten
countries within 36 individual large monodisciplinary journals, moderately fewer
than 95% of subsequent indicator values fall within 95% confidence intervals from
prior years, with the percentage declining over time. This is consistent with
confidence intervals effectively delimiting the research capability of a group,
although it does not prove that this is the cause of the results. The results are
unaffected by whether internationally collaborative articles are included. (c) 2017

AB Maps of scientific knowledge are generally created by analyzing scientific
literature including journal articles, conference proceedings, books, and
monographs. Although citation analysis is the most popular method for generating
maps of science from scientific journal articles and their citations, other
relationships between scientific topics can be used to map science. This study
offers a map of science generated from examining non-fiction book topics and their
relationships as defined by Library of Congress Subject Heading (LCSH) co-
assignments. The resulting map reveals which sub-disciplines of science must be
learned together, showing that Physics and Mathematics are the central topics
required to practice science, which is not revealed by previous studies. This novel
LCSH-based science map reveals new relations between the major sub-disciplines of
science to produce a more complete representation of scientific domains and how
they interact. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Science policy is increasingly shifting towards an emphasis in societal problems
or grand challenges. As a result, new evaluative tools are needed to help assess
not only the knowledge production side of research programmes or organisations, but
also the articulation of research agendas with societal needs. In this paper, we
present an exploratory investigation of science supply and societal needs on the
grand challenge of obesity - an emerging health problem with enormous social costs.
We illustrate a potential approach that uses topic modelling to explore: (a) how
scientific publications can be used to describe existing priorities in science
production; (b) how policy records (in this case here questions posed in the
European parliament) can be used as an instance of mapping discourse of social
needs; (c) how the comparison between the two may show (mis) alignments between
societal concerns and scientific outputs. While this is a technical exercise, we
propose that this type of mapping methods can be useful to domain experts for
informing strategic planning and evaluation in funding agencies. (c) 2017 Elsevier

AB By mapping the most advanced elements of the contemporary social interactions,
the world scientific collaboration network develops an extremely involved and
heterogeneous organization. Selected characteristics of this heterogeneity are
studied here and identified by focusing on the scientific collaboration community
of H. Eugene Stanley - one of the most prolific world scholars at the present time.
Based on the Web of Science records as of March 28, 2016, several variants of
networks are constructed. It is found that the Stanley # 1 network - this in
analogy to the Erdos # - develops a largely consistent hierarchical organization
and Stanley himself obeys rules of the same hierarchy. However, this is seen
exclusively in the weighted network representation. When such a weighted network is
evolving, an existing relevant model indicates that the spread of weight gets
stimulation to the multiplicative bursts over the neighbouring nodes, which leads
to a balanced growth of interconnections among them. While not exclusive to
Stanley, such a behaviour is not a rule, however. Networks of other outstanding
scholars studied here more often develop a star-like form and the central hubs
constitute the outliers. This study is complemented by a spectral analysis of the
normalised Laplacian matrices derived from the weighted variants of the
corresponding networks and, among others, it points to the efficiency of such a
procedure for identifying the component communities and relations among them in the
complex weighted networks. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Rating has become a common practice of modern science. No rating system can be
considered as final, but instead several approaches can be taken, which magnify
different aspects of the fabric of science. We introduce an approach for rating
scholars which uses citations in a dynamic fashion, allocating ratings by
considering the relative position of two authors at the time of the citation among
them. Our main goal is to introduce the notion of citation timing as a complement
to the usual suspects of popularity and prestige. We aim to produce a rating able
to account for a variety of interesting phenomena, such as positioning raising
stars on a more even footing with established researchers. We apply our method on
the bibliometrics community using data from the Web of Science from 2000 to 2016,
showing how the dynamic method is more effective than alternatives in this respect.

AB Policy makers and managers sometimes assess the share of research produced by a
group( country, department, institution). This takes the form of the percentage of
publications in a journal, field or broad area that has been published by the
group. This quantity is affected by essentially random influences that obscure
underlying changes over time and differences between groups. A model of research
production is needed to help identify whether differences between two shares
indicate underlying differences. This article introduces a simple production model
for indicators that report the share of the world's output in a journal or subject
category, assuming that every new article has the same probability to be authored
by a given group. With this assumption, confidence limits can be calculated for the
underlying production capability (i.e., probability to publish). The results of a
time series analysis of national contributions to 36 large monodisciplinary
journals 1996-2016 are broadly consistent with this hypothesis. Follow up tests of
countries and institutions in 26 Scopus subject categories support the conclusions
but highlight the importance ofensuring consistent subject category coverage. (c)

AB S takeholders in the science system need to decide where to place their bets.
Example questions include: Which areas of research should get more funding? Who
should we hire? Which projects should we abandon and which new projects should we
start? Making informed choices requires knowledge about these research options.
Unfortunately, to date research portfolio options have not been defined in a
consistent, transparent and relevant manner. Furthermore, we don't know how to
define demand for these options. In this article, we address the issues of
consistency, transparency, relevance and demand by using a model of science
consisting of 91,726 topics (or research options) that contain over 58 million
documents. We present a new indicator of topic prominence - a measure of
visibility, momentum and, ultimately, demand. We assign over $203 billion of
project-level funding data from STAR METRICS (R) to individual topics in science,
and show that the indicator of topic prominence, explains over one-third of the
variance in current (or future) funding by topic. We also show that highly
prominent topics receive far more funding per researcher than topics that are not
prominent. Implications of these results for research planning and portfolio
analysis by institutions and researchers are emphasized. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All

TI Understanding the topic evolution in a scientific domain: An exploratory
study for the field of information retrieval
LA English
DT Article
DE Topic evolution; Semantic word shifts; Content analysis
ID TRENDS
AB Understanding topic evolution in a scientific domain is essential for capturing
key domain developments and facilitating knowledge transfer within and across
domains. Using a data set on information retrieval (IR) publications, this paper
examines how research topics evolve by analyzing the topic trends, evolving
dynamics, and semantic word shifts in the IR domain. Knowledge transfer between
topics and the developing status of the major topics have been recognized, which
are represented by the merging and splitting of local topics in different time
periods. Results show that the evolution of a major topic usually follows a pattern
from adjusting status to mature status, and sometimes with re-adjusting status in
between the evolving process. Knowledge transfer happens both within a topic and
among topics. Word migration via topic channels has been defined, and three
migration types (non-migration, dual-migration, and multi-migration) are
distinguished to facilitate better understanding of the topic evolution. (c) 2017

AB We analyze the time evolution of citations acquired by articles from journals of
the American Physical Society (PRA, PRB, PRC, PRD, PRE and PRL). The observed
change over time in the number of papers published in each journal is considered an
exogenously caused variation in citability that is accounted for by a
normalization. The appropriately inflation-adjusted citation rates are found to be
separable into a preferential-attachment-type growth kernel and a purely
obsolescence-related (i.e., monotonously decreasing as a function of time since
publication) aging function. Variations in the empirically extracted parameters of
the growth kernels and aging functions associated with different journals point to
research-field-specific characteristics of citation intensity and knowledge flow.
Comparison with analogous results for the citation dynamics of technology-
disaggregated cohorts of patents provides deeper insight into the basic principles
of information propagation as indicated by citing behavior. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Microsoft Academic is a free citation index that allows large scale data
collection. This combination makes it useful for scientometric research. Previous
studies have found that its citation counts tend to be slightly larger than those
of Scopus but smaller than Google Scholar, with disciplinary variations. This study
reports the largest and most systematic analysis so far, of 172,752 articles in 29
large journals chosen from different specialisms. From Scopus citation counts,
Microsoft Academic citation counts and Mendeley reader counts for articles
published 2007-2017, Microsoft Academic found a slightly more (6%) citations than
Scopus overall and especially for the current year (51%). It found fewer citations
than Mendeley readers overall (59%), and only 7% as many for the current year.
Differences between journals were probably due to field preprint sharing cultures
or journal policies rather than broad disciplinary differences. (c) 2017 Elsevier

AB This study investigates the extent to which a gender gap exists in the citation
rates of management researchers. Based on a cross-sectional sample of 26,783
publications and 65,436 authorships, we illuminate possible differences in women's
and men's average citation impact per paper, adjusting for covariation attributable
to geographical setting, institutional reputation, self-citations, collaborative
patterns and journal prestige. We find a marginal difference in citation impact in
favor of women management scholars. Women are also slightly more likely than men to
author articles among the top-10% most cited in their field. Yet given the
sensitivity of our results to uncertainties in the data, these variations should
not be overgeneralized. In the large picture, differences in citation rates appear
to be a negligible factor in the reproduction of gender inequalities in management
research. (c) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Determining how scientific achievements influence the subsequent process of
knowledge creation is a fundamental step in order to build a unified ecosystem for
studying the dynamics of innovation and competitiveness. Relying separately on data
about scientific production on one side, through bibliometric indicators, and about
technological advancements on the other side, through patents statistics, gives
only a limited insight on the key interplay between science and technology which,
as a matter of fact, move forward together within the innovation space. In this
paper, using citation data of both research papers and patents, we quantify the
direct influence of the scientific outputs of nations on further advancements in
science and on the introduction of new technologies. Our analysis highlights the
presence of geo-cultural clusters of nations with similar innovation system
features, and unveils the heterogeneous coupled dynamics of scientific and
technological advancements. This study represents a step forward in the buildup of
an inclusive framework for knowledge creation and innovation. (c) 2017 Elsevier

AB In recent years, scientometrics has devoted increasing attention to the question
of measurement of productivity and efficiency in research. In econometrics, the
question is usually examined using data envelopment analysis. Alternatively, in
this paper we propose using a statistical approach, Bayesian stochastic frontier
analysis (B-SFA), that explicitly considers the stochastic nature of (count) data.
The Austrian Science Fund (FWF) made data available to us from their peer review
process (ex-ante peer evaluation of proposals, final research product reports) and
bibliometric data. The data analysis was done for a subsample of N = 1,046 FWF-
funded projects (in Life Science and Medicine, Formal and Physical Sciences). For
two outcome variables, a general latent research product dimension (CFACTOR) and
the total number of publications (P), technical efficiency values (TE) were
estimated for each project using the SFA production functions. The TE values for
CFACTOR and P were on average 0.86 and 0.27, as compared with a maximum TE value of
1.0. With regard to CFACTOR, female PIs, younger PIs, and projects with longer
durations have slightly higher TE than male PIs, older PIs, and projects with
shorter durations. A simulation study showed the statistical behavior of the
procedure under different sampling conditions. (C) 2017 The Authors. Published by

AB Evergreens in science are papers that display a continual rise in annual
citations without decline, at least within a sufficiently long time period. Aiming
to better understand evergreens in particular and patterns of citation trajectory
in general, this paper develops a functional data analysis method to cluster
citation trajectories of a sample of 1699 research papers published in 1980 in the
American Physical Society (APS) journals. We propose a functional Poisson
regression model for individual papers' citation trajectories, and fit the model to
the observed 30-year citations of individual papers by functional principal
component analysis and maximum likelihood estimation. Based on the estimated paper-
specific coefficients, we apply the K-means clustering algorithm to cluster papers
into different groups, for uncovering general types of citation trajectories. The
result demonstrates the existence of an evergreen cluster of papers that do not
exhibit any decline in annual citations over 30 years. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Academic journals play a critical role in recording and transferring knowledge.
However, the geographic evolution and spatial autocorrelation of the distribution
of academic journals have yet to be fully investigated. Inspired by this gap, we
used descriptive analysis and exploratory spatial data analysis to reveal the
cross-country inequality, globalization process and spatial autocorrelation of
academic journals from 1950 to 2013 based on the Ulrichsweb database. We found
that: (1) there was a tremendous disparity in the distribution of academic journals
at the country level; (2) both the cross-country inequality of academic journals
and the differences in academic publishing between the top three publishing
countries witnessed a wavy trend; (3) the US, Eastern Asia and Europe were the
central regions while Africa and Central Asia were lagging behind; (4) most of the
academic journals in the top ten publishing countries were technology-based, and
the proportion of academic journals in the field of Social Sciences and Technology
went up; (5) most of the top ten publishing countries have experienced a rising-
decreasing-stabilizing pattern of academic journals' growth before 2000; (6) the
temporal and spatial variation of the distribution of academic journals may be
attributed to political and economic factors; (7) the spatial autocorrelation of
the distribution of academic journal was firstly strengthened and mitigated; (8)
the European cluster has been the hot-spot area in academic journal publishing
since 1950. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Most publication and citation indicators are based on datasets with multi-
authored publications and thus a change in counting method will often change the
value of an indicator. Therefore it is important to know why a specific counting
method has been applied. I have identified arguments for counting methods in a
sample of 32 bibliometric studies published in 2016 and compared the result with
discussions of arguments for counting methods in three older studies. Based on the
underlying logics of the arguments I have arranged the arguments in four groups.
Group 1 focuses on arguments related to what an indicator measures, Group 2 on the
additivity of a counting method, Group 3 on pragmatic reasons for the choice of
counting method, and Group 4 on an indicator's influence on the research community
or how it is perceived by researchers. This categorization can be used to describe
and discuss how bibliometric studies with publication and citation indicators argue
for counting (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Measuring the citation impact of journals with generalized Lorenz curves

curve
ID STOCHASTIC-DOMINANCE; INEQUALITY MEASURES; RANKINGS; ARTICLE; INDEXES
AB To improve comparisons of journals, which are typically based on single-value
indicators, such as the journal impact factor (JIF), this paper proposes a
functional approach. We discuss interpretatively three progressively finer
dominance relations. The first one corresponds to a comparison between the quantile
functions of the citation distributions. The second one consists in comparing the
integrals of the quantile functions namely, the generalized Lorenz curves (GLCs).
The third one consists in comparing the integrals of the GLCs, where the
integration is designed to emphasize the role of the "central body" of the articles
of the journal. Although dominance relations are generally not complete orders, we
demonstrate with an empirical analysis that it is possible to increase
significantly the proportion of pairs of journals that are comparable by moving
from the first to the second criterion, and then from the second to the third.
Because, in practical applications, it may be convenient to reduce such a
functional comparison to a scalar comparison between indicators, we follow an
axiomatic approach to identify classes of indicators that are isotonic with the
criteria introduced. We demonstrate that the established JIF may be usefully
improved if it is corrected simply by multiplying it by one minus the Gini
coefficient. The resulting index, defined as stabilized-JIF, has many attractive
features and it is isotonic with all the dominance relations introduced. (C) 2017

TI Quantifying perceived impact of scientific publications
LA English
DT Article
ID CITATION ANALYSIS; EXCELLENCE
AB We report on an empirical verification of the degree to which citation numbers
represent scientific impact as it is actually perceived by experts in their
respective field. We run a survey of about 2000 corresponding authors who performed
a pairwise impact assessment task across more than 20,000 scientific articles.
Results of the survey show that citation data and perceived impact do not align
well, unless one properly accounts for psychological biases that affect the
opinions of experts with respect to their own papers vs. those of others.
Researchers tend to prefer their own publications to the most cited papers in their
field of research. There is only a mild positive correlation between the number of
citations of top-cited papers and expert preference in pairwise comparisons. This
also applies to pairs of papers with several orders of magnitude differences in
their total number of accumulated citations. However, when researchers were asked
to choose among pairs of their own papers, thus eliminating the bias favouring
one's own papers over those of others, they did systematically prefer the most
cited article. We conclude that, when scientists have full information and are
making unbiased choices, expert opinion on impact is congruent with citation
numbers. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Predicting the age of researchers using bibliometric data

AB The age of researchers is a critical factor necessary to study the bibliometric
characteristics of the scholars that produce new knowledge. In bibliometric
studies, the age of scientific authors is generally missing; however, the year of
the first publication is frequently considered as a proxy of the age of
researchers. In this article, we investigate what are the most important
bibibliometric factors that can be used to predict the age of researchers (birth
and PhD age). Using a dataset of 3574 researchers from Quebec for whom their Web of
Science publications, year of birth and year of their PhD are known, our analysis
falls under the linear regression setting and focuses on investigating the
predictive power of various regression models rather than data fitting, considering
also a breakdown by fields. The year of first publication proves to be the best
linear predictor for the age of researchers. When using simple linear regression
models, predicting birth and PhD years result in an error of about 3.7 years and
3.9 years, respectively. Including other bibliometric data marginally improves the
predictive power of the regression models. A validation analysis for the field
breakdown shows that the average length of the prediction intervals vary from 2.5
years for Basic Medical Sciences (for birth years) up to almost 10 years for
Education (for PhD years). The average models perform significantly better than the
models using individual observations. Nonetheless, the high variability of data and
the uncertainty inherited by the models advice to caution when using linear
regression models for predicting the age of researchers. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB This study uses journal ratings in criminology and criminal justice, library and
information science, public administration, and social work to investigate two
research questions: (1) Are stated preference (subjective) journal ratings more
closely related to size-dependent citation metrics (eigenfactor and total
citations, which represent the impact of the journal as a whole) or to size-
independent citation metrics (article influence and CiteScore, which represent the
impact of a typical article)? (2) Are stated preference ratings more closely
related to unweighted citation metrics (five-year impact factor and source
normalized impact per publication, which do not account for the impact of each
citing journal) or to weighted citation metrics (article influence and SCImago
journal rank, which do)? Within the disciplines evaluated here, respondents'
subjective ratings of journals are more closely related to size-independent metrics
and weighted metrics. The relative strength of the relationship between subjective
ratings and size-independent metrics is moderated by subject area and other
factors, while the relative strength of the relationship between subjective ratings
and weighted metrics is consistent across all four disciplines. These results are
discussed with regard to popularity and prestige, which are sometimes associated
with unweighted and weighted citation metrics, respectively. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Characteristic scores and scales (CSS) were proposed in the late 1980s as a
powerful tool in evaluative scientometrics but have only recently begun to be used
for systematic, multi-level appraisal. By relying on successive sample means found
in citation distributions the CSS method yields performance classes that can be
used to benchmark individual units of assessment. This article investigates the
theoretical and empirical consequences of a median-based approach to the
construction of CSS. Mean and median-based CSS algorithms developed in the R
language and environment for statistical computing are applied to citation data of
papers from journals indexed in four Web of Science categories: Information Science
and Library Science, Social work, Microscopy and Thermodynamics. Subject category-
level and journal-level comparisons highlight the specificities of the median-based
approach relative to the mean-based CSS. When moving from the latter to the former
substantially fewer papers are ascribed to the poorly cited CSS class and more
papers become fairly, remarkably or outstandingly cited. This transition is also
marked by the well-known Matthew effect in science. Both CSS versions promote a
disaggregated perspective on research evaluation but differ with regard to
emphasis: mean-based CSS promote a more exclusive view of excellence; the median-
based approach promotes a more inclusive outlook. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB It is widely recognized that citation counts for papers from different fields
cannot be directly compared because different scientific fields adopt different
citation practices. Citation counts are also strongly biased by paper age since
older papers had more time to attract citations. Various procedures aim at
suppressing these biases and give rise to new normalized indicators, such as the
relative citation count. We use a large citation dataset from Microsoft Academic
Graph and a new statistical framework based on the Mahalanobis distance to show
that the rankings by well known indicators, including the relative citation count
and Google's PageRank score, are significantly biased by paper field and age. Our
statistical framework to assess ranking bias allows us to exactly quantify the
contributions of each individual field to the overall bias of a given ranking. We
propose a general normalization procedure motivated by the z-score which produces
much less biased rankings when applied to citation count and PageRank score. (C)

AB Early in researchers' careers, it is difficult to assess how good their work is
or how important or influential the scholars will eventually be. Hence, funding
agencies, academic departments, and others often use the Journal Impact Factor
(JIF) of where the authors have published to assess their work and provide
resources and rewards for future work. The use of JIFs in this way has been heavily
criticized, however. Using a large data set with many thousands of publication
profiles of individual researchers, this study tests the ability of the JIF (in its
normalized variant) to identify, at the beginning of their careers, those
candidates who will be successful in the long run. Instead of bare JIFs and
citation counts, the metrics used here are standardized according to Web of Science
subject categories and publication years. The results of the study indicate that
the JIF (in its normalized variant) is able to discriminate between researchers who
published papers later on with a citation impact above or below average in a field
and publication year - not only in the short term, but also in the long term.
However, the low to medium effect sizes of the results also indicate that the JIF
(in its normalized variant) should not be used as the sole criterion for
identifying later success: other criteria, such as the novelty and significance of
the specific research, academic distinctions, and the reputation of previous
institutions, should also be considered. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB In this paper we transfer the Elo rating system, which is widely accepted in
chess, sports and other disciplines, to rank scientific journals. The advantage of
the Elo system is the explicit consideration of the factor time and the history of
a journal's ranking performance. Most other rankings that are commonly applied
neglect this fact. The Elo ranking methodology can easily be applied to any metric,
published on a regular basis, to rank journals. We illustrate the approach using
the SNIP indicator based on citation data from Scopus. Our data set consists of
more than 20 000 journals from many scientific fields for the period from 1999 to
2015. We show that the Elo approach produces similar but by no means identical
rankings compared to other rankings based on the SNIP alone or the Tournament
Method. Especially the rank order for rather 'middle-class' journals can
tremendously change. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

analysis: A preliminary exploration on improving knowledge domain
mappings

AB Author cocitation analysis (ACA) is a branch of bibliometrics and knowledge
representation that aims to map knowledge domains. However, ACA has been criticized
because count-based measurement is too simple, and resulting maps are
insufficiently informative. Since different scholarly relationships, e.g.,
coauthorship and author bibliographic coupling relationships, can extract out
different relationships among authors in various perspectives, combining them with
ACA for constructing knowledge domain mappings is our major purpose. The proposed
method constructs the hybrid matrix from all relationships in four steps:
relationship normalization, calculating the similarity between scholarly
relationships, calculating adjustment parameters, and constructing hybrid
relationships. The important parameters for integrating these matrices are
calculated according to the distance in the hyperspace transformed from the
similarity among the scholarly relationships by exploratory factor analysis.
Compared with ACA, the results of the proposed method show: (1) More sub-fields in
the given discipline can be identified when combining other scholarly
relationships; (2) The more scholarly relationships added into ACA, the more
details in terms of research area the method will find; (3) Good visualization in
clustering is depicted when we combine other scholarly relationships. As a result,
the proposed method offers a good choice to understand researchers and to map
knowledge domains in a study field for integrating more scholarly relationships at
the same time. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB As Google Scholar (GS) gains more ground as free scholarly literature retrieval
source it's becoming important to understand its quality and reliability in terms
of scope and content. Studies comparing GS to controlled databases such as Scopus,
Web of Science (WOS) and others have been published almost since GS inception.
These studies focus on its coverage, quality and ability to replace controlled
databases as a source of reliable scientific literature. In addition, GS
introduction of citations tracking and journal metrics have spurred a body of
literature focusing on its ability to produce reliable metrics. In this article we
aimed to review some studies in these areas in an effort to provide insights into
GS ability to replace controlled databases in various subject areas. We reviewed 91
comparative articles from 2005 until 2016 which compared GS to various databases
and especially Web of Science (WOS) and Scopus in an effort to determine whether GS
can be used as a suitable source of scientific information and as a source of data
for scientific evaluation. Our results show that GS has significantly expanded its
coverage through the years which makes it a powerful database of scholarly
literature. However, the quality of resources indexed and overall policy still
remains known. Caution should be exercised when relying on GS for citations and
metrics mainly because it can be easily manipulated and its indexing quality still
remains a challenge. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper explores the characteristics of DataCite to determine its
possibilities and potential as a new bibliometric data source to analyze the
scholarly production of open data. Open science and the increasing data sharing
requirements from governments, funding bodies, institutions and scientific journals
has led to a pressing demand for the development of data metrics. As a very first
step towards reliable data metrics, we need to better comprehend the limitations
and caveats of the information provided by sources of open data. In this paper, we
critically examine records downloaded from the DataCite's OAI API and elaborate a
series of recommendations regarding the use of this source for bibliometric
analyses of open data. We highlight issues related to metadata incompleteness, lack
of standardization, and ambiguous definitions of several fields. Despite these
limitations, we emphasize DataCite's value and potential to become one of the main
sources for data metrics development. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI What drives university research performance? An analysis using the CWTS
Leiden Ranking data

AB This paper analyzes the factors underlying university research performance as
indicated by the number of highly-cited publications, international co-
publications, and university-industry co-publications. The three performance
indicators evaluate three possible university missions, respectively: research
excellence, internationalization, and innovation. Using a regression analysis, we
assess to what extent a university's research performance is influenced by
structural variables including size, age, city size, location in a capital city,
disciplinary orientation, and country location. Our results show that research
performance differences among universities mainly stem from size, disciplinary
orientation and country location. This suggests that simple global benchmarking can
be misleading; rather, benchmarking is most meaningful between universities of a
similar size supplemented with contextual information on a university's specific
mission, orientation and national institutions. (C) 2017 The Authors. Published by

TI Multiplicity and uncertainty: Media coverage of autism causation
LA English
DT Article
DE Autism causation; Media coverage; Machine reading
ID SPECTRUM DISORDERS; PRINT MEDIA; CONTROVERSY; PRESS
AB Employing the machine learning method, this study analyses 6504 articles from
four major newspapers, New York Times, Washington Post, USA Today, and The
Guardian, to examine how media cover the topic about causes of autism. A total of
14,305 causal sentences on the topic are extracted from media articles and
subjected to analysis of causal entities and descriptions. Results show media have
presented multiple factors (e.g. vaccination, genetics, and parenting) pertaining
to the causes of autism, as well as multiple symptoms of autism. Most of those
causal relationships are presented in a tentative or uncertain manner. The study
also reveals significant differences in reportage of autism causation across time
and media channels. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The evolution of a collaboration network is to some extent steered by the
network topology itself. This is the reason behind the success of network evolution
models and approaches to link prediction. At the same time, some changes are due to
exogenous factors (i.e., factors external to the network itself). In this paper, we
explore changes in the collaboration network of African countries (2000-2014), with
a focus on detecting emergent links beyond endogenous network features. Using link
prediction and machine learning, we generate an 'expected' (predicted)
collaboration network based on past data and compare it with the actual network
that evolved in later years. The results show that the intensity of collaboration
with non-African countries is higher than expected, especially for countries that
are scientifically more active. To a lesser extent, we also find an increase in
collaboration within Africa, which seems mostly due to the scientifically less
developed countries. Emergent collaborations are mostly found in the first half of
the studied period; in the second half the network structure appears to stabilize.

TI Perverse effects of output-based research funding? Butler's Australian
case revisited
LA English
DT Article
ID PUBLICATION COUNTS; CITATION ANALYSIS; IMPACT; PERFORMANCE; INDICATORS;
QUANTITY
AB More than ten years ago, Linda Butler (2003a) published a well- cited article
claiming that the Australian science policy in the early 1990s made a mistake by
introducing output based funding. According to Butler, the policy stimulated
researchers to publish more but at the same time less good papers, resulting in
lower total impact of Australian research compared to other countries. We redo and
extend the analysis using longer time series, and show that Butlers' main
conclusions are not correct. We conclude in this paper (i) that the currently
available data reject Butler's claim that " journal publication productivity has
increased significantly... but its impact has declined", and (ii) that it is hard
to find such evidence also with a reconstruction of her data. On the contrary,
after implementing evaluation systems and performance based funding, Australia not
only improved its share of research output but also increased research quality,
implying that total impact was greatly increased. Our findings show that if output
based research funding has an effect on research quality, it is positive and not
negative. This finding has implications for the discussions about research
evaluation and about assumed perverse effects of incentives, as in those debates
the Australian case plays a major role. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID AGREE BIBLIOMETRIC EVALUATION; IMPACT FACTOR; EVALUATING RESEARCH;

AB For nearly a decade, several national exercises have been implemented for
assessing the Italian research performance, from the viewpoint of universities and
other research institutions. The penultimate one - i.e., the VQR 2004-2010, which
adopted a hybrid evaluation approach based on bibliometric analysis and peer review
- suffered heavy criticism at a national and international level.
The architecture of the subsequent exercise - i.e., the VQR 2011-2014, still in
progress - is partly similar to that of the previous one, except for a few presumed
improvements. Nevertheless, this other exercise is suffering heavy criticism too.
This paper presents a structured discussion of the VQR 2011-2014, collecting and
organizing some critical arguments so far emerged, and developing them in detail.
Some of the major vulnerabilities of the VQR 2011-2014 are: (1) the fact that
evaluations cover a relatively small fraction of the scientific publications
produced by the researchers involved in the evaluation, (2) incorrect and
anachronistic use of the journal metrics (i.e., ISI Impact Factor and similar ones)
for assessing individual papers, and (3) conceptually misleading criteria for
normalizing and aggregating the bibliometric indicators in use. (C) 2017 Elsevier

AB This study collects the educational backgrounds of 14310 full professors from
top 48 universities in the United States. The aim is to analyze the role of foreign
education in academics training in the United States. There are two parts of the
analysis. In the first part, we find the countries from where the professors get
their education. We note that there are some concentrations in provision of
undergraduate studies. For example, Greece provides more undergraduate degrees to
professors than the whole continents of South America or Africa. Moreover, we show
that most of the foreign-educated professors get their undergraduate education from
high-income countries. In the second part, we find the ratio of foreign educated
professors by the type of the university and the academic field in which they
currently work. We show that the ratio of foreign-educated academics does not vary
with public ownership of the university or the ranking of the university. However,
the ratio of foreign-educated professors varies significantly among academic
fields. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In the context of research collaboration and co-authorship, we studied scholars'
scientific achievements and success, based on their collection of shared
publications. By means of a novel regression model, which exploits the two-mode
structure of co-authorship, we translated paper scientific impact into author
professional achievement, to simultaneously account for the effect of paper
properties (access status, funding bodies, etc.) as well as author demographic and
behavioral characteristics (gender, nationality) on academic success and impact.
After a detailed analysis of the proposed statistical procedure, we illustrated our
approach with an empirical analysis of a co-authorship network based on 1007
scientific articles. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Uncovering fine-grained research excellence: The global research
benchmarking system
LA English
DT Article
DE Research benchmarking; University ranking; Bibliometrics; Fine-grained
subject categories
ID UNIVERSITY RANKINGS; QUALITY
AB Since few universities can afford to be excellent in all subject areas,
university administrators face the difficult decision of selecting areas for
strategic investment. While the past decade has seen a proliferation of university
ranking systems, several aspects in the design of most ranking systems make them
inappropriate to benchmark performance in a way that supports formulation of
effective institutional research strategy. To support strategic decision making,
universities require research benchmarking data that is sufficiently fine-grained
to show variation among specific research areas and identify focused areas of
excellence; is objective and verifiable; and provides meaningful comparisons across
the diversity of national higher education environments. This paper describes the
Global Research Benchmarking System (GRBS) which satisfies these requirements by
providing fine-grained objective data to internationally benchmark university
research performance in over 250 areas of Science and Technology. We provide
analyses of research performance at country and university levels, using the
diversity of indicators in GRBS to examine distributions of research quality in
countries and universities as well as to contrast university research performance
from volume and quality perspectives. A comparison of the GRBS results with those
of the three predominant ranking systems shows how GRBS is able to identify pockets
of excellence within universities that are overlooked by the more traditional
aggregate level approaches. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Research papers not only involve author collaboration networks but also relate
to knowledge networks. Previous research claims that a paper's citations are
related to the node attributes of its.authors in collaboration networks. We further
propose that a paper's citations can also be affected by the node attributes of its
knowledge elements in knowledge networks. In this study, we develop a new method to
construct the knowledge network using article keywords. Further, we explore the
antecedents of paper citations from both the collaboration and knowledge network
perspectives. Using wind energy paper data (16,351 records) collected from WoS (Web
of Science) and JCR (Journal Citation Reports) database, we construct two distinct
networks and empirically examine the hypotheses of the relationships between node
attributes of two networks and the paper's citations, which fill the gap in prior
studies and will inspire related studies. We have the following key findings: in
the collaboration network, the structural holes of authors have positive but non-
significant effects on the paper's citations, while the authors' centrality has
inverted U effects on the paper's citations; in the knowledge network, the
structural holes of knowledge elements are positively related to the paper's
citations, and the knowledge elements centrality has an inverted U relationship
with the paper's citations. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Do researchers pay attention to publication subsidies?
LA English
DT Article
DE Publication subsidies; Research council; Co-authorship patterns
ID RESEARCH FUNDING SYSTEMS; SCIENTIFIC PRODUCTIVITY; IMPACT; QUALITY
AB The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (Tubitak) gives
individual researchers subsidies for their publications. Researchers freely use
these publication subsidies as pocket money. The publication subsidy given to a
researcher for an article is inversely proportional to the number of authors of the
article. That is, a researcher who publishes an article receives X/N Turkish Lira
(TL), where X is the subsidy amount assigned to the journal in which the article is
published and N is the number of authors. In this paper, we use the 250 TL rule to
see whether publication subsidies affect the behavior of researchers. The rule
states that no subsidy is given to any of the authors of an article if X/N is
smaller than 250 TL. We use this discontinuity to provide evidence that Turkish
researchers limit their number of co-authors in order to receive publication
subsidies. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID IMPACT INDICATORS; PERFORMANCE; SCIENCE; PRODUCTIVITY; SCIENTISTS;

AB The paper addresses the issue of the transatlantic gap in research excellence
between Europe and USA by examining the performance of individual universities. It
introduces a notion of leadership in research excellence by combining a subjective
definition of excellence with an objective one. It applies this definition to a
novel dataset disaggregated for 251 Subject Categories, covering the 2007-2010
period, based on Scopus data. The paper shows that European universities are able
to show excellence only in a few disciplinary areas each, while US universities are
able to excel across the board. It explains this difference in terms of
institutional differences in recruitment process and governance of universities. It
discusses the European model of distributed excellence in terms of the recent rise
of input competition. (C) 2017 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB The recently proposed Euclidean index offers a novel approach to measure the
citation impact of academic authors, in particular as an alternative to the h-
index. We test if the index provides new, robust information, not covered by
existing bibliometric indicators, discuss the measurement scale and the degree of
distinction between analytical units the index offers. We find that the Euclidean
index does not outperform existing indicators on these topics and that the main
application of the index would be solely for ranking, which is not seen as a
recommended practice. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Local altmetrics is currently an integral part of the altmetrics landscape. This
paper aims to investigate the characteristics of microblog altmetrics of the
Chinese microblog platform, Weibo, to shed light on cultural differences and draw
attention to local altmetrics in developing countries. The analysis is based on 4.4
million records provided by Altmetric.com. Data collected are from March 2014 to
July 2015. It is found that Weibo users discuss global science, more actively
compared with several international altmetrics sources. Statistical results show
strong evidence of the immediacy advantage of metrics based on Weibo as well as
Twitter and the general altmetrics over citations. Distribution of Weibo altmetrics
on the article level, source level and discipline level are highly skewed. Overall,
compared with Twitter, Weibo altmetrics present similar distributions, with some
minor variations. To better understand how and why Weibo users discuss global
scientific articles, the top weiboed articles, sources and disciplines are
identified and further explored. Our content analysis shows that the common
motivation of scientific weibos is to disseminate or discuss the articles because
they are interesting, surprising, academically useful or practically useful.
Conclusion of articles is the most frequently mentioned element in scientific
weibos. In addition, different from Twitter, Weibo users have a preference for
traditional prestigious journals. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study aims to identify variables and indicators that substantiate the
development of rules that focus on the structural analysis of scientific articles.
Variables and indicators for structural analysis are derived from hypotheses
deduced from editorials in important scientific journals. To exemplify and test the
indicators, a structural analysis was conducted of 108 scientific articles
published in important journals in the field of Management. The hypotheses were
mostly tested in accordance with the idea of estimation statistics. The approach
that was developed for the structural analysis of the network of texts innovates by
employing network analysis indicators (indegree and outdegree). For this purpose,
the text matrix is employed through the identification and encoding of cross-
references between sections and subsections of each article under study. For the
context in question, the field of Management, twelve rules were developed. The
interpretations of the possible values for the indicators, expressed in the form of
rules, are applied as directives to less experienced scholars in preparing their
scientific articles, and for the generation of information to support activities
concerning the classification and analysis of scientific articles. (C) 2017

AB Science is becoming increasingly more interdisciplinary, giving rise to more
diversity in the areas of expertise, In such a complex environment, the
participation of authors became more specialized, hampering the task of evaluating
authors according to their contributions. While some metrics were adapted to
account for the order (or rank) of authors in a paper, many journals are now
requiring a description of their specific roles in the publication. Surprisingly,
the investigation of the relationships between credited contributions and author's
rank has been limited to a few studies. Here we analyzed such a kind of data and
show, quantitatively, that the regularity in the authorship contributions decreases
with the number of authors in a paper. Furthermore, we found that the rank of
authors and their roles in papers follow three general patterns according to the
nature of their contributions: (i) the total contribution increases with author's
rank; (ii) the total contribution decreases with author's rank; and (iii) the total
contribution is symmetric, with most of contributions being performed by first and
last authors. This was accomplished by collecting and analyzing the data retrieved
from PLoS One and by devising a measurement of the effective number of authors in a
paper. The analysis of such patterns confirms that some aspects of the author
ranking are in accordance with the expected convention, such as the first and last
authors being more likely to contribute more diversely in a scientific work.
Conversely, such analysis also revealed that authors in the intermediary positions
of the rank contribute more in specific roles, such as collecting data. This
indicates that the an unbiased evaluation of researchers must take into account the
distinct types of scientific contributions. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Patent citation analysis is considered a useful tool for technology impact
analysis. However, the outcomes of previous methods do not provide a fair
reflection of a technology's future prospects since they are based on deterministic
approaches, assuming that future trends will remain the same as those in the past.
As a remedy, we propose a Hawkes process-based patent citation analysis method to
assess the future technological impact and uncertainty of a technology in a time
period of interest by employing the future citation counts of the relevant patents
as a quantitative proxy. For this, we construct a citation interval matrix from the
United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) database, and employ a Hawkes
process a special case of path-dependent stochastic processes - as a method for
patent citation forecasting. Specifically, the Hawkes process models the
idiosyncratic and dynamic behaviours of a technology's evolution and obsolescence
by increasing the likelihood of another subsequent citation by oneself (i.e., self-
excitation) and decaying the likelihood back towards the initial level naturally. A
case study of the patents about molecular amplification diagnosis technology shows
that our method outperforms previous deterministic approaches in terms of accuracy
and practicality. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB When comparing the average citation impact of research groups, universities and
countries, field normalisation reduces the influence of discipline and time.
Confidence intervals for these indicators can help with attempts to infer whether
differences between sets of publications are due to chance factors. Although both
bootstrapping and formulae have been proposed for these, their accuracy is unknown.
In response, this article uses simulated data to systematically compare the
accuracy of confidence limits in the simplest possible case, a single field and
year. The results suggest that the MNLCS (Mean Normalised Log transformed Citation
Score) confidence interval formula is conservative for large groups but almost
always safe, whereas bootstrap MNLCS confidence intervals tend to be accurate but
can be unsafe for smaller world or group sample sizes. In contrast, bootstrap MNCS
(Mean Normalised Citation Score) confidence intervals can be very unsafe, although
their accuracy increases with sample sizes. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

TI On evaluating the quality of a computer science/computer engineering
conference

AB The Peer Reputation (PR) metric was recently proposed in the literature, in
order to judge a researcher's contribution through the quality of the venue in
which the researcher's work is published. PR, proposed by Nelakuditi et al., ties
the selectivity of a publication venue with the reputation of the first author's
institution. By computing PR for a percentage of the papers accepted in a
conference or journal, a more solid indicator of a venue's selectivity than the
paper Acceptance Ratio (AR) can be derived. In recent work we explained the reasons
for which we agree that PR offers substantial information that is missing from AR,
however we also pointed out several limitations of the metric. These limitations
make PR inadequate, if used only on its own, to give a solid evaluation of a
researcher's contribution. In this work, we present our own approach for judging
the quality of a Computer Science/Computer Engineering conference venue, and thus,
implicitly, the potential quality of a paper accepted in that conference. Driven by
our previous findings on the adequacy of PR, as well as our belief that an
institution does not necessarily "make" a researcher, we propose a Conference
Classification Approach (CCA) that takes into account a number of metrics and
factors, in addition to PR. These are the paper's impact and the authors' h-
indexes. We present and discuss our results, based on data gathered from close to
3000 papers from 12 top-tier Computer Science/Computer Engineering conferences
belonging to different research fields. In order to evaluate CCA, we compare our
conference rankings against multiple publicly available rankings based on
evaluations from the Computer Science/Computer Engineering community, and we show
that our approach achieves a very comparable classification. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

AB The ever-growing number of venues publishing academic work makes it difficult
for researchers to identify venues that publish data and research most in line with
their scholarly interests. A solution is needed, therefore, whereby researchers can
identify information dissemination pathways in order to both access and contribute
to an existing body of knowledge. In this study, we present a system to recommend
scholarly venues rated in terms of relevance to a given researcher's current
scholarly pursuits and interests. We collected our data from an academic social
network and modeled researchers' scholarly reading behavior in order to propose a
new and adaptive implicit rating technique for venues. We present a way to
recommend relevant, specialized scholarly venues using these implicit ratings that
can provide quick results, even for new researchers without a publication history
and for emerging scholarly venues that do not yet have an impact factor. We
performed a large-scale experiment with real data to evaluate the current scholarly
recommendation system and showed that our proposed system achieves better results
than the baseline. The results provide important up-to-the-minute signals that
compared with post-publication usage-based metrics represent a closer reflection of
a researcher's interests. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID ACADEMIC GENEALOGY; INFORMATION; IMPACT
AB Academic genealogy can be defined as the study of intellectual heritage that is
undertaken through the relationship between a professor (advisor/mentor) and
student (advisee) and on the basis of these ties, it establishes a social framework
that is generally represented by an academic genealogy graph. Obtaining relevant
knowledge of academic genealogy graphs makes it possible to analyse the academic
training of scientific communities, and discover ancestors or forbears who had
special skills and talents. The use of metrics for characterizing this kind of
graph is an active form of knowledge extraction. In this paper, we set out a formal
definition of a metric called 'genealogical index', which can be used to assess how
far researchers have affected advisor-advisee relationships. This metric is based
on the bibliometrics h-index and its definition can be broadened to measure the
effect of researchers on several generations of scientists. A case study is
employed that includes an academic genealogy graph consisting of more than 190,000
Ph.D.s registered in the Mathematics Genealogy Project. Additionally, we compare
the genealogical indices obtained from both the Fields Medal and Wolf Prize
winners, and found that the latter has had a greater impact than the former. (C)

AB We study the problem of determining the cognitive distance between the
publication portfolios of two units. In this article we provide a systematic
overview of five different methods (a benchmark Euclidean distance approach,
distance between barycenters in two and in three dimensions, distance between
similarity-adapted publication vectors, and weighted cosine similarity) to
determine cognitive distances using publication records. We present a theoretical
comparison as well as a small empirical case study. Results of this case study are
not conclusive, but we have, mainly on logical grounds, a small preference for the
method based on similarity-adapted publication vectors. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All

topics more strongly than physicists?

AB In this work, we extend our previous work on largeness tracing among physicists
to other fields, namely mathematics, economics and biomedical science. Overall, the
results confirm our previous discovery, indicating that scientists in all these
fields trace large topics. Surprisingly, however, it seems that researchers in
mathematics tend to be more likely to trace large topics than those in the other
fields. We also find that on average, papers in top journals are less largeness-
driven. We compare researchers from the USA, Germany, Japan and China and find that
Chinese researchers exhibit consistently larger exponents, indicating that in all
these fields, Chinese researchers trace large topics more strongly than others.
Further correlation analyses between the degree of largeness tracing and the
numbers of authors, affiliations and references per paper reveal positive
correlations papers with more authors, affiliations or references are likely to be
more largeness-driven, with several interesting and noteworthy exceptions: in
economics, papers with more references are not necessary more largeness-driven, and
the same is true for papers with more authors in biomedical science. We believe
that these empirical discoveries may be valuable to science policy-makers. (C) 2017

AB A central question in science of science concerns how time affects citations.
Despite the long-standing interests and its broad impact, we lack systematic
answers to this simple yet fundamental question. By reviewing and classifying prior
studies for the past 50 years, we find a significant lack of consensus in the
literature, primarily due to the coexistence of retrospective and prospective
approaches to measuring citation age distributions. These two approaches have been
pursued in parallel, lacking any known connections between the two. Here we
developed a new theoretical framework that not only allows us to,connect the two
approaches through precise mathematical relationships, it also helps us reconcile
the interplay between temporal decay of citations and the growth of science,
helping us uncover new functional forms characterizing citation age distributions.
We find retrospective distribution follows a lognormal distribution with
exponential cutoff, while prospective distribution is governed by the interplay
between a lognormal distribution and the growth in the number of references. Most
interestingly, the two approaches can be connected once rescaled by the growth of
publications and citations. We further validate our framework using both large-
scale citation datasets and analytical models capturing citation dynamics. Together
this paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the time dimension of science,
representing a new empirical and theoretical basis for all future studies in this
area. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper focuses on the evaluation of research institutions in terms of size-
independent indicators. There are well-known procedures in this context, such as
what we call additive rules, which provide an evaluation of the impact of any
research unit in a scientific field based upon a partition of the field citations
into ordered categories, along with some external weighting system to weigh those
categories. We introduce here a new ranking procedure that is not an additive rule
- the HV procedure, after Herrero & Villar (2013) - and compare it those
conventional evaluation rules within a common setting. Given a set of ordered
categories, the HV procedure measures the performance of the different research
units in terms of the relative probability of getting more citations. The HV method
also provides a complete, transitive and cardinal evaluation, without recurring to
any external weighting scheme. Using a large dataset of publications in 22
scientific fields assigned to 40 countries, we compare the performance of several
additive rules - the Relative Citation Rate, four percentile-based ranking
procedures, and two average-based high-impact indicators - and the corresponding HV
procedures under the same set of ordered categories. Comparisons take into account
re-rankings, and differences in the outcome variability, measured by the
coefficient of variation, the range, and the ratio between the maximum and minimum
index values. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this study, we examine academic ranking and inequality in library and
information science (LIS) using a faculty hiring network of 643 faculty members
from 44 LIS schools in the United States. We employ four groups of measures to
study academic ranking, including adjacency, placement and hiring, distance-based
measures, and hubs and authorities. Among these measures, closeness and hub
measures have the highest correlation with the U.S. News ranking (r = 0.78). We
study academic inequality using four distinct methods that include downward/upward
placement, Lorenz curve, cliques, and egocentric networks of LIS schools and find
that academic inequality exists in the LIS community. We show that the percentage
of downward placement (68%) is much higher than that of upward placement (22%);
meanwhile, 20% of the 30 LIS schools that have doctoral programs produced nearly
60% of all LIS faculty, with a Gini coefficient of 0.53. We also find cliques of
highly ranked schools and a core/periphery structure that distinguishes LIS schools
of different ranks. Overall, LIS faculty hiring networks have considerable value in
deriving credible academic ranking and revealing faculty exchange within the field.

AB Business research has established itself in largely six disciplines: Accounting,
Marketing, Organizational Behavior and Management, Finance, Management Science and
Operations Research, and Management Information Systems. The knowledge flows among
these six disciplines and the factors that drive knowledge diffusion are important
considerations. The quantitative analyses on a large dataset containing over
400,000 journal-to-journal citations for business journals published between 1997
and 2009 reveal important patterns of knowledge diffusion in business research. The
cross-disciplinary knowledge diffusion is discipline-dependent and converging to a
similar level in terms of the diversity. Aside from other factors such as articles
published in the journal and the number of classifications, we find that journal
quality, as measured by inclusion in the UT Dallas top journal list, has a
significant effect on cross-disciplinary knowledge flows. We also offer some
potential explanations for the effect of this formalized measure of quality. (C)

DE Innovation; Innovation Output; Intellectual Property; Patents;

AB Patents are the main source of data on innovation. Since most of the innovative
activity happens outside of the patenting system, and since patents and
innovations- have different quality, complexity, and impact on each market,
unweighted sums of patents and proxies are an imperfect indicator of a country's
innovative activity. I generate two very simple indices of innovation (one
dependent on the size of a country, and another that normalizes country-size),
based on weighting patents and exports by a complexity measure. Each index captures
the technological complexity of innovations inside and outside the intellectual
property rights system. I empirically analyze the rankings of these innovation
indices, and contrast the results with technological development, GDP, and the
existing mainstream innovation index. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Lattes platform; Scholarly publishing; Scientific productivity;

AB We assemble a massive sample of 180,000 CVs of Brazilian academic researchers of
all disciplines from the Lattes platform. From the CVs we gather information on key
variables related to the researchers and their publications. We find males are more
productive in terms of quantity of publications, but the effect of gender in terms
of research impact is mixed for individual groups of subject areas. For all fields
of science, holding a PhD from abroad increases the chance for a researcher to
publish in journals of higher impact. We also find that the more years a researcher
takes to finish his or her doctorate, the more likely he or she will publish less

existence of an inverted U-shaped function relating research age and productivity.

systems of science

DE Classification systems of science; Journal-level versus
publication-level systems; Field-normalization
ID CITATION IMPACT INDICATORS; FIELD-NORMALIZATION; FAIR
AB In this paper, we propose a new criterion for choosing between a pair of
classification systems of science that assign publications (or journals) to a set
of clusters. Consider the standard target (cited-side) normalization procedure in
which cluster mean citations are used as normalization factors. We recommend system
A over system B whenever the standard normalization procedure based on system A
performs better than the standard normalization procedure based on system B.
Performance is assessed in terms of two double tests- one graphical, and one
numerical- that use both classification systems for evaluation purposes. In
addition, a pair of classification systems is compared using a third, independent
classification system for evaluation purposes. We illustrate this strategy by
comparing a Web of Science journal-level classification system, consisting of 236
journal subject categories, with two publication-level algorithmically constructed
classification systems consisting of 1363 and 5119 clusters. There are two main
findings. Firstly, the second publication-level system is found to dominate the
first. Secondly, the publication-level system at the highest granularity level and
the Web of Science journal-level system are found to be non-comparable.
Nevertheless, we find reasons to recommend the publication-level option. (C) 2016

ID SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY
AB A procedure for identifying discoveries in the biomedical sciences is described
that makes use of citation context information, or more precisely citing sentences,
drawn from the PubMed Central database. The procedure focuses on use of specific
terms in the citing sentences and the joint appearance of cited references. After a
manual screening process to remove non -discoveries, a list of over 100 discoveries
and their associated articles is compiled and characterized by subject matter and
by type of discovery. The phenomenon of multiple discovery is shown to play an
important role. The onset and timing of recognition of the articles are studied by
comparing the number of citing sentences with and without discovery terms, and show
both early onset and delays in recognition. A comparative analysis of the
vocabularies of the discovery and non -discovery sentences reveals the types of
words and concepts that scientists associate with discoveries. A machine learning
application is used to efficiently extend the list. Implications of the findings
for understanding the nature and justification of scientific discoveries are
discussed. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Whether patent citations indicate knowledge linkage is still a controversial
issue, which is very important for the widespread use of the patent citation
analysis method. We hypothesize that there exists technological knowledge linkage
between patents and their citations, and that the linkage can be detected through
measuring text similarities between them. To test the hypothesis, we selected
citing-cited patent pairs as the observation group and selected patent pairs
without citing-cited relationship as the control group. Using the VSM with WF-IDF
weighting method, we calculated text similarity values of the two groups. Through
comparing text similarity values between the two groups, we validate that in the
vast majority of cases text similarity values of citing-cited pairs are much higher
than those of non-citing-cited pairs. The study in nano-technology field shows that
the above results are the same, although patents in the same technological area are
more relevant than in different technological areas. Furthermore, by comparing text
similarities between applicant and examiner citing-cited pairs, the results show
that in more cases examiner citations indicate knowledge linkage a bit better than
applicant citations. Preferably, examiner citations can be regarded as not only the
supplement of applicant citations but also the more important technological
background and the prior art closely related to the patents. Compared to applicant
citations, examiner citations are a good indicator of knowledge linkage rather than
an incomplete and noisy indicator. In short, the results suggest that most
certainly patent citations can indicate knowledge linkage, and more likely examiner
citations can indicate knowledge linkage a bit better than applicant citations,
especially for the component of patent claims. Therefore, we accept the hypothesis
that patent citations can indicate knowledge linkage, which is the basic assumption
of the patent citation analysis method. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Acknowledgments are one of many conventions by which researchers publicly bestow
recognition towards individuals, organizations and institutions that contributed in
some way to the work that led to publication. Combining data on both co-authors and
acknowledged individuals, the present study analyses disciplinary differences in
researchers' credit attribution practices in collaborative context. Our results
show that the important differences traditionally observed between disciplines in
terms of team size are greatly reduced when acknowledgees are taken into account.
Broadening the measurement of collaboration beyond co-authorship by including
individuals credited in the acknowledgements allows for an assessment of
collaboration practices and team work that might be closer to the reality of
contemporary research, especially in the social sciences and humanities. (C) 2016

AB Gender differences in collaborative research have received little attention when
compared with the growing importance that women hold in academia and research.
Unsurprisingly, most of bibliometric databases have a strong lack of directly
available information by gender. Although empirical-based network approaches are
often used in the study of research collaboration, the studies about the influence
of gender dissimilarities on the resulting topological outcomes are still scarce.
Here, networks of scientific subjects are used to characterize patterns that might
be associated to five categories of authorships which were built based on gender.
We find enough evidence that gender imbalance in scientific authorships brings a
peculiar trait to the networks induced from papers published in Web of Science
(WoS) indexed journals of Economics over the period 2010-2015 and having at least
one author affiliated to a Portuguese institution. Our results show the emergence
of a specific pattern when the network of co-occurring subjects is induced from a
set of papers exclusively authored by men. Such a male-exclusive authorship
condition is found to be the solely responsible for the emergence of that
particular shape in the network structure. This peculiar trait might facilitate
future network analysis of research collaboration and interdisciplinarity. (C) 2016

DE Research guarantors; Scientific collaboration; Acknowledgement as
guarantor
ID LEADERSHIP; OUTPUT; INSTITUTIONS; INDICATOR; CITATION; IMPACT
AB Output resulting from institutional collaboration has been widely used to create
performance indicators, but focusing on research guarantors has recently provided a
way to recognize the salient role of certain scientific actors. This paper
elaborates on this approach to characterize the performance of an institution as
guarantor based not only on its guarantor output but also on the importance of the
institutions with which it collaborates. Accepting that guarantorship implies in
some way acknowledgement of a prominent role on the part of the collaborating
institutions, and that this recognition will be more important the more important
the collaborating institutions, the paper describes two approaches to measuring
this acknowledgement and discusses their effectiveness in helping to recognize
prominent scientific actors by using a case study in the Library and Information
Science field. The results show a high assortativity in scientific collaboration
relationships, confirming the original hypothesis that important institutions tend
to grant prestigious institutions the recognition of their relevance. (C) 2016

TI Does your surname affect the citability of your publications?

AB Prior investigations have offered contrasting results on a troubling question:
whether the alphabetical ordering of bylines confers citation advantages on those
authors whose surnames put them first in the list. The previous studies analyzed
the surname effect at publication level, i.e. whether papers with the first author
early in the alphabet trigger more citations than papers with a first author late
in the alphabet. We adopt instead a different approach, by analyzing the surname
effect on citability at the individual level, i.e. whether authors with
alphabetically earlier surnames result as being more cited. Examining the question
at both the overall and discipline levels, the analysis finds no evidence
whatsoever that alphabetically earlier surnames gain advantage. The same lack of
evidence occurs for the subpopulation of scientists with very high publication
rates, where alphabetical advantage might gain more ground. The field of
observation consists of 14,467 scientists in the sciences. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

research evaluation

CITATION ANALYSIS; ARTICLES; JOURNALS; SCIENCE; WEB; DISCIPLINARY;
PERCENTILES
AB Although altmetrics and other web-based alternative indicators are now
commonplace in publishers' websites, they can be difficult for research evaluators
to use because of the time or expense of the data, the need to benchmark in order
to assess their values, the high proportion of zeros in some alternative
indicators, and the time taken to calculate multiple complex indicators. These
problems are addressed here by (a) a field normalisation formula, the Mean
Normalised Log-transformed Citation Score (MNLCS) that allows simple confidence
limits to be calculated and is similar to a proposal of Lundberg, (b) field
normalisation formulae for the proportion of cited articles in a set, the Equalised
Mean-based Normalised Proportion Cited (EMNPC) and the Mean-based Normalised
Proportion Cited (MNPC), to deal with mostly uncited data sets, (c) a sampling
strategy to minimise data collection costs, and (d) free unified software to gather
the raw data, implement the sampling strategy, and calculate the indicator formulae
and confidence limits. The approach is demonstrated (but not fully tested) by
comparing the Scopus citations, Mendeley readers and Wikipedia mentions of research
funded by Wellcome, NIH, and MRC in three large fields for 2013-2016. Within the
results, statistically significant differences in both citation counts and Mendeley
reader counts were found even for sets of articles that were less than six months
old. Mendeley reader counts were more precise than Scopus citations for the most
recent articles and all three funders could be demonstrated to have an impact in
Wikipedia that was significantly above the world average. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

IMPACT; CONS; PROS
AB The main objective of this paper is to empirically test whether the
identification of highly cited documents through Google Scholar is feasible and
reliable. To this end, we carried out a longitudinal analysis (1950-2013), running
a generic query (filtered only by year of publication) to minimise the effects of
academic search engine optimisation. This gave us a final sample of 64,000
documents (1000 per year). The strong correlation between a document's citations
and its position in the search results (r = 0.67) led us to conclude that Google
Scholar is able to identify highly-cited papers effectively. This, combined with
Google Scholar's unique coverage (no restrictions on document type and source),
makes the academic search engine an invaluable tool for bibliometric research
relating to the identification of the most influential scientific documents. We
find evidence, however, that Google Scholar ranks those documents whose language
(or geographical web domain) matches with the user's interface language higher than
could be expected based on citations. Nonetheless, this language effect and other
factors related to the Google Scholar's operation, i.e. the proper identification
of versions and the date of publication, only have an incidental impact. They do
not compromise the ability of Google Scholar to identify the highly-cited papers.

data

Impact factors; Normalization
ID ALTERNATIVE METRICS; COUNTS; BEHAVIOR; JOURNALS; TIME
AB Using percentile shares, one can visualize and analyze the skewness in
bibliometric data across disciplines and over time. The resulting figures can be
intuitively interpreted and are more suitable for detailed analysis of the effects
of independent and control variables on distributions than regression analysis. We
show this by using percentile shares to analyze so-called "factors influencing
citation impact" (FICs; e.g., the impact factor of the publishing journal) across
years and disciplines. All articles (n=2,961,789) covered by WoS in 1990
(n=637,301), 2000 (n =919,485), and 2010 (n =1,405,003) are used. In 2010, nearly
half of the citation impact is accounted for by the 10% most-frequently cited
papers; the skewness is largest in the humanities (68.5% in the top-10% layer) and
lowest in agricultural sciences (40.6%). The comparison of the effects of the
different FICs (the number of cited references, number of authors, number of pages,
and JIF) on citation impact shows that the JIF has indeed the strongest
correlations with the citation scores. However, the correlation between FICs and
citation impact is lower, if citations are normalized instead of using raw citation
counts. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB metaknowledge is a full-featured Python package for computational research in
information science, network analysis, and science of science. It is optimized to
scale efficiently for analyzing very large datasets, and is designed to integrate
well with reproducible and open research workflows. It currently accepts raw data
from the Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, and
select funding agencies. It processes these raw data inputs and outputs a variety
of datasets for quantitative analysis, including time series methods, Standard and
Multi Reference Publication Year Spectroscopy, computational text analysis (e.g.
topic modeling, burst analysis), and network analysis (including multi-mode, multi-
level, and longitudinal networks). This article motivates the use of metaknowledge
and explains its design and core functionality. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB In today's complex academic environment the process of performance evaluation of
scholars is becoming increasingly difficult. Evaluation committees often need to
search in several repositories in order to deliver their evaluation summary report
for an individual. However, it is extremely difficult to infer performance
indicators that pertain to the evolution and the dynamics of a scholar. In this
paper we propose a novel computational methodology based on unsupervised machine
learning that can act as an important tool at the hands of evaluation committees of
individual scholars. The suggested methodology compiles a list of several key
performance indicators (features) for each scholar and monitors them over time. All
these indicators are used in a clustering framework which groups the scholars into
categories by automatically discovering the optimal number of clusters using
clustering validity metrics. A profile of each scholar can then be inferred through
the labeling of the clusters with the used performance indicators. These labels can
ultimately act as the main profile characteristics of the individuals that belong
to that cluster. Our empirical analysis gives emphasis on the "rising stars" who
demonstrate the biggest improvement over time across all of the key performance
indicators (KPIs), and can also be employed for the profiling of scholar groups.

TI Citation success index - An intuitive pair-wise journal comparison
metric

DE Citations; Journal metrics; Impact factor

BEHAVIOR; TOOL
AB In this paper we present "citation success index", a metric for comparing the
citation capacity of pairs of journals. Citation success index is the probability
that a random paper in one journal has more citations than a random paper in
another journal (50% means the two journals do equally well). Unlike the journal
impact factor (IF), the citation success index depends on the broadness and the
shape of citation distributions. Furthermore, it is insensitive to sporadic highly-
cited papers that affect the IF. Nevertheless, we show, based on 16,000 journals
containing 2.4 million articles, that the citation success index is a relatively
tight function of the ratio of IFs of journals being compared. This is due to the
fact that journals with the same IF have quite similar citation distributions. The
citation success index grows slowly as a function of IF ratio. It is substantial
(>90%) only when the ratio of IFs exceeds 6, whereas a factor of two difference in
IF values translates into a modest advantage for the journal with higher IF (index
of 70%). We facilitate the wider adoption of this metric by providing an online
calculator that takes as input parameters only the IFs of the pair of journals. (C)

neuroscience: A gender analysis

DT Article
DE Neuroscience; Gender; Women; Scientific production; Collaboration

ID SCIENTIFIC PRODUCTIVITY; SCIENCE; AUTHORSHIP; GAP
AB Neuroscience or Neural Science is a very active and interdisciplinary field that
seeks to understand the brain and the nervous system. In spite of important
advances made in recent decades, women are still underrepresented in neuroscience
research output as a consequence of gender inequality in science overall. This
study carries out a scientometric analysis of the 30 neuroscience journals (2009-
2010) with the highest impact in the Web of Science database (Thomson Reuters) in
order to quantitatively examine the current contribution of women in
neuroscientific production, their pattern of research collaboration, scientific
content, and the analysis of scientific impact from a gender perspective. From a
total of 66,937 authorships, gender could be identified in 53,351 (79.7%) of them.
Results revealed that 67.1% of the authorships corresponded to men and 32.9% to
women. In relative terms, women tend to be concentrated in the first position of
the authorship by-line (which could be a reflection of new female incorporations
into neuroscience research publishing their first studies), and much less in the
last (senior) position. This double pattern suggests that age probably plays a role
in (partly) explaining gender asymmetry, both in science in general and in
neuroscience in particular. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this study, we explore paper characteristics that facilitate the knowledge
flow from science to technology by using the patent-to-paper citation data. The
linear growth trajectory of the number of patent citations to a scientific paper
over time is used to measure the dynamism of its utilization for technology
applications. The citation data used were obtained from the USPTO database based on
two 5-year citation windows, 2001-2005 and 2009-2013. The former included patent
citations to the publications in the Thomson Reuters Web of Science in 1998, and
the latter included those in 2006. Only the publications in the top ten most
frequently cited subject categories in the Web of Science were selected. By using
growth modeling, we have found that the mean slope of the trajectory is
significant. Moreover, the paper citation count, the ranking factor of the journal
in which the paper was published, whether the paper is an industrial publication,
and whether it is a review article have been identified to exert significant
effects on the growth of the citation of scientific literature by patented
inventions. Some policy implications are discussed. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

ID LOCAL HIERARCHY THEORY; COMPLEX NETWORKS; ACYCLIC DIGRAPHS; WEALTH
AB In this contribution we study partial orders in the set of zero-sum arrays.
Concretely, these partial orders relate to local and global hierarchy and dominance
theories. The exact relation between hierarchy and dominance curves is explained.
Based on this investigation we design a new approach for measuring dominance or
stated otherwise, power structures, in networks. A new type of Lorenz curve to
measure dominance or power is proposed, and used to illustrate intrinsic
characteristics of networks. The new curves, referred to as D-curves are partly
concave and partly convex. As such they do not satisfy Dalton's transfer principle.
Most importantly, this article introduces a framework to compare different power
structures as a whole.
It is shown that D-curves have several properties making them suitable to
measure dominance. If dominance and being a subordinate are reversed, the dominance
structure in a network is also reversed. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Measuring the contribution of each author of a multi-author paper has been a
long standing concern. As a possible solution to this, we propose a list of
intellectual activities and logistic support activities that might be involved in
the production of a research paper. We then develop a quantitative approach to
estimate an author's relative intellectual contribution to a published work. An
author's relative intellectual contribution is calculated as the percent
contribution of an author to each intellectual activity involved in the production
of the paper multiplied by a weighing factor for each intellectual activity. The
relative intellectual contribution calculated in this way can be used to determine
the position of an author in the author list of a paper. Second, a corrected
citation index for each author, called the T-index, can be calculated by
multiplying the relative intellectual contribution by the total citations received
by a paper. The proposed approach can be used to measure the impact of an author of
a multi-authored paper in a more accurate way than either giving each author full
credit or dividing credit equally. Our proposal not only resolves the long standing
concern for the fair distribution of each author's credit depending on his/her
contribution, but it will also, hopefully, discourage addition of non-contributing
authors to a paper. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID SCIENTIFIC-EXCELLENCE; UNIVERSITY-RESEARCH; INDICATOR; SCIENCE;
CITATION; SEARCH
AB This article discusses the metrics used in the national research evaluation in
Poland of the period 2009-2012. The Polish system uses mostly parametric
assessments to make the evaluation more objective and independent from its peers.
We have analysed data on one million research outcomes and assessment results of
962 scientific units in the period 2009-2012. Our study aims to determine how much
data the research funding system needs to proceed with evaluation. We have used
correlation analysis, multivariate logistic regressions models and decision trees
to show which metrics of the evaluation played a major role in the final results.
Our analysis revealed that many metrics taken into account in the evaluation are
closely correlated. We have found that in the Polish system, not all the collected
data are necessary to achieve the main goal of the system, namely the
categorization of scientific units in terms of their research performance. Our
findings highlight the fact that there is a high correlation between performance in
terms of publications and the scientific potential of a given scientific unit. We
conclude with recommendations and a suggestion of a transition from a system in
which the scientific units report all their metrics to a system in which they show
only the most important metrics that meet the requirements of excellence in
research. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The rising trend of coauthored academic works obscures the credit assignment
that is the basis for decisions of funding and career advancements. In this paper,
a simple model based on the assumption of an unvarying "author ability" is
introduced. With this assumption, the weight of author contributions to a body of
coauthored work can be statistically estimated. The method is tested on a set of
some more than five-hundred authors in a coauthor network from the CiteSeerX
database. The ranking obtained agrees fairly well with that given by total
fractional citation counts for an author, but noticeable differences exist. (C)

ID AUTHOR NAME DISAMBIGUATION; DOCTORAL STUDENT; NETWORKS; SEARCH
AB Young scholars in academia often seek to work in collaboration with top
researchers in their field in pursuit of a successful career. While success in
academia can be defined differently, everyone agrees that training with a well-
known researcher can help lead to an efficacious career. This study aims to
investigate whether collaborating with established scientists does, in fact,
improve junior scholars' chances of success. If not, what makes young scientists
soar in their academic careers? We investigate this question by analyzing the
effect of collaboration with a known-star on success of a young scholar. The
results suggest that working with leading experts can lead to a successful career,
but that it is not the only way. Researchers who were not fortunate enough to start
their career with an elite researcher could still succeed through hard work and
passion. These findings emerged from analyses of two discrete sets of well-known
scholars on the career of newcomers, suggesting their strength and validity. (C)

AB The paper provides an empirical examination of how research productivity
distributions differ across scientific fields and disciplines. Productivity is
measured using the FSS indicator, which embeds both quantity and impact of output.
The population studied consists of over 31,000 scientists in 180 fields (10
aggregate disciplines) of a national research system. The Characteristic Scores and
Scale technique is used to investigate the distribution patterns for the different
fields and disciplines. Research productivity distributions are found to be
asymmetrical at the field level, although the degree of skewness varies
substantially among the fields within the aggregate disciplines. We also examine
whether the field productivity distributions show a fractal nature, which reveals
an exception more than a rule. Differently, for the disciplines, the partitions of
the distributions show skewed patterns that are highly similar. (C) 2017 Elsevier

OUTPUT; SIZE
AB In a previous article of ours, we explained the reasons why the MNCS and all
similar per-publication citation indicators should not be used to measure research
performance, whereas efficiency indicators (output to input) such as the FSS are
valid indicators of performance. The problem frequently indicated in measuring
efficiency indicators lies in the availability of input data. If we accept that
such data are inaccessible, and instead resort to per-publication citation
indicators, the question arises as to what extent institution performance rankings
by MNCS are different from those by FSS (and so what effects such results could
have on policy-makers, managers and other users of the rankings). Contrasting the
2008-2012 performance by MNCS and FSS of Italian universities in the Sciences, we
try to answer that question at field, discipline, and overall university level. We
present the descriptive statistics of the shifts in rank, and the correlations of
both scores and ranks. The analysis reveals strong correlations in many fields but
weak correlations in others. The extent of rank shifts is never negligible: a
number of universities shift from top to non-top quartile ranks. (C) 2016 Elsevier

NETWORKS; WEB; COMMUNICATION; INDICATORS; DYNAMICS; SCHEMES
AB A number of journal classification systems have been developed in bibliometrics
since the launch of the Citation Indices by the Institute of Scientific Information
(ISI) in the 1960s. These systems are used to normalize citation counts with
respect to field-specific citation patterns. The best known system is the so-called
"Web-of-Science Subject Categories" (WCs). In other systems papers are classified
by algorithmic solutions. Using the Journal Citation Reports 2014 of the Science
Citation Index and the Social Science Citation Index (n of journals = 11,149), we
examine options for developing a new system based on journal classifications into
subject categories using aggregated journal-journal citation data. Combining
routines in VOSviewer and Pajek, a tree-like classification is developed. At each
level one can generate a map of science for all the journals subsumed under a
category. Nine major fields are distinguished at the top level. Further
decomposition of the social sciences is pursued for the sake of example with a
focus on journals in information science (LIS) and science studies (STS). The new
classification system improves on alternative options by avoiding the problem of
randomness in each run that has made algorithmic solutions hitherto irreproducible.
Limitations of the new system are discussed (e.g. the classification of multi-
disciplinary journals). The system's usefulness for field-normalization in
bibliometrics should be explored in future studies. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB This study estimates the development of hybrid open access (OA), i.e. articles
published openly on the web within subscription-access journals. Included in the
study are the five largest publishers of scholarly journals; Elsevier, Springer,
Wiley-Blackwell, Taylor & Francis, and Sage. Since no central indexing or
standardized metadata exists for identifying hybrid OA an explorative bottom-up
methodological approach was developed. The individual search and filtering features
of each publisher website and a-priori availability of data were leveraged to the
extent possible. The results indicate a strong sustained growth in the volume of
articles published as hybrid OA during 2007 (666 articles) to 2013 (13994
articles). The share of hybrid articles was at 3.8% of total published articles for
the period of 2011-2013 for journals with at least one identified hybrid OA
article. Journals within the Scopus discipline categorization of Health and Life
Sciences, in particular the field of Medicine, were found to be among the most
frequent publishers of hybrid OA content. The study surfaces the many
methodological challenges involved in obtaining metrics regarding hybrid OA, a
growing business for journal publishers as science policy pressures for reduced
access barriers to research publications. (C) 2016 The Authors. Published by

AB In the last decade, a growing number of studies focused on the
qualitative/quantitative analysis of bibliometric-database errors. Most of these
studies relied on the identification and (manual) examination of relatively limited
samples of errors.
Using an automated procedure, we collected a large corpus of more than 10,000
errors in the two multidisciplinary databases Scopus and Web of Science (WoS),
mainly including articles in the Engineering-Manufacturing field. Based on the
manual examination of a portion (of about 10%) of these errors, this paper provides
a preliminary analysis and classification, identifying similarities and differences
between Scopus and WoS.
The analysis reveals interesting results, such as: (i) although Scopus seems
more accurate than WoS, it tends to forget to index more papers, causing the loss
of the relevant citations given/obtained, (ii) both databases have relatively
serious problems in managing the so-called Online-First articles, and (iii) lack of
correlation between databases, regarding the distribution of the errors in several
error categories.
The description is supported by practical examples concerning a variety of
errors in the Scopus and WoS databases. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Author co-citation analysis (ACA) has been widely used for identifying the
subject disciplines of authors. Citations can reveal the explicit relationship
between authors as well as their subject research fields. However, previous studies
have seldom considered citation contents that convey useful implicit information on
the authors or the influence of the links between the authors' subject fields by
taking citation locations into account. This study aims to reveal the implicit
relationship in the authors' subject disciplines by considering both citation
contents and proximity. To this end, the researchers propose a new ACA method,
called content- and proximity-based author co-citation analysis (CPACA). For the
study, we extracted citation sentences and locations from full-text articles in the
oncology field. The top 15 journals on oncology in Journal Citation Reports were
selected, and 6,360 full-text articles from PubMed Central were collected. The
results show that the proposed method enables the identification of distinct sub-
fields of authors to represent authors' subject relatedness. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

AB In this study, we propose an unconnected component inclusion technique (UCIT)
for patent citation analysis. Our method generates a cluster solution that includes
unconnected and connected components of a direct citation network, enabling a more
complete analysis of the technology fields. Case studies of Internet of Things-
related technologies were conducted to test the effectiveness of our proposed
method. We observed that UCIT increased the number of nodes especially in
relatively small networks. Additionally, we analyzed how the clusters changed by
adding unconnected patents to the citation network and identified four types of
clustering phenomenon. Our method can be used by patent officers, R&D managers, and
policy makers when they want to understand the technology landscape better. (C)

AB Citation Delay (D) introduced by Wang et al. (2015) is a measure of citation
durability of articles reflecting information on the entire citation life-time. The
characteristics of the measure and relationships of it to other article
characteristics are examined in the six different fields using the citation data
over 15 years of the articles published in 2000 in these fields. D distributes
normally with good approximation and is not so much dependent on the subject field
as the citation count. Although articles with higher D (more lately cited) tend to
gain more citations in their life-time, this relationship is not linear but the
mean of citations reaches a maximum at a certain value of D. Multiple regression
analysis explaining D showed that articles with a higher Price index (i.e. citing
more recent references) will receive most of the citations relatively earlier and
that there is a weak tendency that articles containing more figures are cited
earlier and those containing more tables are cited later. A seemingly contradictory
result is found that more highly cited articles tend to have higher citation
durability in individual journals while high-impact journals tend to include more
articles with lower citation durability in higher proportions. (C) 2016 Elsevier

TI Is this conference a top-tier? ConfAssist: An assistive conflict
resolution framework for conference categorization
LA English
DT Article
DE Venue classification; Feature analysis; Conflict resolution; Entropy
ID QUALITY; IMPACT
AB Classifying publication venues into top-tier or non-top-tier is quite subjective
and can be debatable at times. In this paper, we propose ConfAssist, a novel
assisting framework for conference categorization that aims to address the
limitations in the existing systems and portals for venue classification. We start
with the hypothesis that top-tier conferences are much more stable than other
conferences and the inherent dynamics of these groups differs to a very large
extent. We identify various features related to the stability of conferences that
might help us separate a top-tier conference from the rest of the lot. While there
are many clear cases where expert agreement can be almost immediately achieved as
to whether a conference is a top-tier or not, there are equally many cases that can
result in a conflict even among the experts. ConfAssist tries to serve as an aid in
such cases by increasing the confidence of the experts in their decision. An
analysis of 110 conferences from 22 sub fields of computer science clearly favors
our hypothesis as the top-tier conferences are found to exhibit much less
fluctuations in the stability related features than the non-top tier ones. We
evaluate our hypothesis using systems based on conference categorization. For the
evaluation, we conducted human judgment survey with 28 domain experts. The results
are impressive with 85.18% classification accuracy. We also compare the dynamics of
the newly started conferences with the older conferences to identify the initial
signals of popularity. The system is applicable to any conference with atleast 5
years of publication history. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB An earlier publication (Grossetti et al., 2014) has established that we are
attending a decreasing concentration of scientific activities within "world-
cities". Given that more and more cities and countries are contributing to the
world production of knowledge, this article analyses the evolution of the world
collaboration network both at the domestic and international levels during the
2000s. Using data from the Science Citation Index Expanded, scientific authors'
addresses are geo-localized and grouped by urban areas. Our data suggests that
interurban collaborations within countries increased together with international
linkages. In most countries, domestic collaborations increased faster than
international collaborations. Even among the top collaborating cities, sometimes
referred to as "world cities", the share of domestic collaborations has gained
momentum. Our results suggest that, contrary to common beliefs about the
globalization process, national systems of research have been strengthening during
the 2000s. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We investigate publications through their citation histories - the history
events are the citations given to the article by younger publications and the time
of the event is the date of publication of the citing article. We propose a
methodology, based on spectral clustering, to group citation histories, and the
corresponding publications, into communities and apply multinomial logistic
regression to provide the revealed communities with semantics in terms of
publication features. We study the case of publications from the full Physical
Review archive, covering 120 years of physics in all its domains. We discover two
clear archetypes of publications - marathoners and sprinters - that deviate from
the average middle-of-the-roads behaviour, and discuss some publication features,
like age of references and type of publication, that are correlated with the
membership of a publication into a certain community. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB In this submission we introduce the notion of under-cited influential
publications and show that these publications are like "wake-up switches" for
significant follow-up research. To be considered an under-cited influential article
we require an article to meet three requirements. One is on the level of received
number of citations (first generation citations), while the two other ones take
subsequent citation generations into account. In general terms these three
conditions are:
1) The article is reasonably well-cited (a basic requirement to be influential)
2) Citations of citations (second generation citations) are rather highly cited,
so that the original one is influential in an indirect way (a more refined token of
influence);
3) Given condition two, the article received fewer citations than expected
(being under cited).
We claim that the phenomenon of under-cited influential publications is
important and should receive more attention. Moreover, one may say that under-cited
influential publications belong to the group of truly foundational scientific
discoveries acting as promoters of influential research as shown by significant
follow-up research. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Searching bibliographic data using graphs: A visual graph query
interface

ID EFFICIENT KEYWORD SEARCH; LANGUAGE; RDF; GL
AB With the ever-increasing scientific literature, improving the efficiency of
searching bibliographic data has become an important issue. With a lack of support
of current bibliographic information retrieval systems in expressing complicated
information needs, getting relevant bibliographic data is a demanding task. In this
paper, we propose a visual graph query interface for bibliographic information
retrieval. Through this interface, users can formulate bibliographic queries by
interacting with a graph. Visual graph queries use a set of nodes with constraints
and links among nodes to represent explicit and precise bibliographic information
needs. The proposed visual graph query interface allows users to formulate several
complex bibliographic queries (e.g., bibliographic coupling) that are not
attainable in current major bibliographic information retrieval systems. In
addition, the proposed interface requires less number of queries in completing
everyday bibliographic search tasks. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Similarity measures are fundamental tools for identifying relationships within
or across patent portfolios. Many bibliometric indicators are used to determine
similarity measures; for example, bibliographic coupling, citation and co-citation,
and co-word distribution. This paper aims to construct a hybrid similarity measure
method based on multiple indicators to analyze patent portfolios. Two models are
proposed: categorical similarity and semantic similarity. The categorical
similarity model emphasizes international patent classifications (IPCs), while the
semantic similarity model emphasizes textual elements. We introduce fuzzy set
routines to translate the rough technical (sub-) categories of IPCs into defined
numeric values, and we calculate the categorical similarities between patent
portfolios using membership grade vectors. In parallel, we identify and highlight
core terms in a 3 level tree structure and compute the semantic similarities by
comparing the tree-based structures. A weighting model is designed to consider: 1)
the bias that exists between the categorical and semantic similarities, and 2) the
weighting or integrating strategy for a hybrid method. A case study to measure the
technological similarities between selected firms in China's medical device
industry is used to demonstrate the reliability our method, and the results
indicate the practical meaning of our method in a broad range of informetric
applications. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI A longitudinal study of the bookmarking of library and information
science literature in Mendeley
LA English

DE Altmetrics; Citations; Library and information science; Mendeley
ID DOWNLOADS; CITATIONS; JOURNALS
AB Speed and breadth have been suggested as two advantages of altmetrics over
citation counts since they might estimate impact immediately after publication and
beyond the academic community of authors. In order to investigate the validity of
these claims, we performed a fifteen-month longitudinal study of the evolution of
bookmarks in Mendeley for a set of 3813 articles published in Library and
Information Science in 2014. Results show that 87.6% of the literature was
bookmarked at least once by May 2016 whereas only 55% was cited. The correlation
between bookmarks and citations was moderate and the overlap between the most
frequently bookmarked and the most frequently cited papers increased over time. A
significant share of the bookmarks were made by students and professionals,
although the shares of bookmarks made by different categories of users changed as
time went by. Bookmarks made by users based in less wealthy nations also increased
over time. The study is limited by the incomplete information provided by Mendeley
regarding users' academic status and country of residence, the upgrades of the
software used in data collection, and the fact that one year is a rather long
publication period for a longitudinal study of a fast changing feature like
bookmarks. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Size-dependent indicators
ID PUBLICATION; INDICATORS; SYSTEMS; AUTHORS; SAMPLE
AB Measures of research productivity (e.g. peer reviewed papers per researcher) is
a fundamental part of bibliometric studies, but is often restricted by the
properties of the data available. This paper addresses that fundamental issue and
presents a detailed method for estimation of productivity (peer reviewed papers per
researcher) based on data available in bibliographic databases (e.g. Web of Science
and Scopus). The method can, for example, be used to estimate average productivity
in different fields, and such field reference values can be used to produce field
adjusted production values. Being able to produce such field adjusted production
values could dramatically increase the relevance of bibliometric rankings and other
bibliometric performance indicators. The results indicate that the estimations are
reasonably stable given a sufficiently large data set. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

TI Measuring delayed recognition for papers: Uneven weighted summation and
total citations

citations; Citation delay; Weighted summation
ID SLEEPING BEAUTIES; SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY; SCIENCE
AB This paper studies the so-called abnormal phenomenon of delayed recognition in
bibliometrics and focuses on the first step in quantitatively measuring this
phenomenon. As bibliometric analysis of a paper's recognition and influence is an
uncertain and extended process, proper calculation of delayed recognition and
"sleeping beauty" publications has limitations in current scientometric studies,
such as restricted application indicators, scope, and complex calculation methods.
This study suggests a solution for depicting the citation delay phenomenon of
individual papers that avoids dividing them into different periods, is applicable
to all papers with various types of citation curves, and is easy to calculate.
Notably, this approach advocates using an uneven weighted summation based on
earlier and later citation years when analyzing an individual paper's citation
data. It demonstrates that the intrinsic relation between two independent
indicators of citation delay and Gs index is based on the same logic of applying
uneven weights to sum up yearly citations. This paper also recommends that
simultaneous application of the new indicator D-a and final citation numbers can
efficiently identify those delayed recognition papers, and that the criterion for
selecting papers can be adjusted by the value of a. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

ID SOCIAL NETWORK ANALYSIS; ARTICLES; OBESITY; COLLABORATION; DETERMINANTS;
PUBLICATIONS; PERFORMANCE; PSYCHOLOGY; INDEX
AB A number of bibliometric studies have shown that many factors impact citation
counts besides the scientific quality. This paper used a large bibliometric dataset
to investigate the impact of the different statistical properties of author-
selected keywords and the network attributes of their co-occurrence networks on
citation counts. Four statistical properties of author-selected keywords were
considered: (i) Keyword growth (i.e., the relative increase or decrease in the
presence statistics of an underlying keyword over a given period of time); (ii)
Keyword diversity (i.e., the level of variety in a set of author-selected
keywords); (iii) Number of keywords; and (iv) Percentage of new keywords. This
study also considered network centrality which is a network attribute from the
keyword co-occurrence network. Network centrality was calculated using the average
of three basic network centrality measures: degree, closeness and betweenness
centrality. A correlation and regression analysis showed that all of these factors
had a significant positive relation with citation counts except the percentage of
new keywords that had a significant negative relation. However, when the effect of
four potential control variables (i.e., the number of article authors, the length
of an article, the quality of the journal in which the article was published and
the length of the title of an article) were controlled, only four variables related
to author-selected keywords showed a significant relation with citation counts.
Keyword growth, number of keywords and network centrality showed a positive
relation with citation counts; whereas, the percentage of new keywords showed a
negative relation with citation counts. The implications of these findings are
discussed in this article. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The analysis of bibliometric networks, such as co-authorship, bibliographic
coupling, and co-citation networks, has received a considerable amount of
attention. Much less attention has been paid to the construction of these networks.
We point out that different approaches can be taken to construct a bibliometric
network. Normally the full counting approach is used, but we propose an alternative
fractional counting approach. The basic idea of the fractional counting approach is
that each action, such as co-authoring or citing a publication, should have equal
weight, regardless of for instance the number of authors, citations, or references
of a publication. We present two empirical analyses in which the full and
fractional counting approaches yield very different results. These analyses deal
with co-authorship networks of universities and bibliographic coupling networks of
journals. Based on theoretical considerations and on the empirical analyses, we
conclude that for many purposes the fractional counting approach is preferable over
the full counting one. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Interfield comparison; Research subsidy; Publication evaluation
AB The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (Tubitak) gives
subsidies to researchers for their publications. Tubitak groups journals into
subject categories, and gives equal subsidies to publications from journals with
comparable standing. This formulation aims at interfield equality among journals.
Unfortunately, interfield equality among journals does not necessarily lead to
interfield equality among researchers because there are interfield productivity
differences. We show that chemists in prestigious Turkish universities on average
receive 4.30 times more subsidies than economists. We also apply the subsidy
formula to the publications of the researchers from world's most prestigious
universities. In this case, the inequality between chemists and economists is less
pronounced. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

JOURNALS; BIBLIOMETRICS; PUBLICATIONS; UNIVERSALITY
AB Citations between scientific papers and related bibliometric indices, such as
the h-index for authors and the impact factor for journals, are being increasingly
used - often in controversial ways - as quantitative tools for research evaluation.
Yet, a fundamental research question remains still open: to which extent do
quantitative metrics capture the significance of scientific works? We analyze the
network of citations among the 449,935 papers published by the American Physical
Society (APS) journals between 1893 and 2009, and focus on the comparison of
metrics built on the citation count with network-based metrics. We contrast five
article-level metrics with respect to the rankings that they assign to a set of
fundamental papers, called Milestone Letters, carefully selected by the APS editors
for "making long-lived contributions to physics, either by announcing significant
discoveries, or by initiating new areas of research". A new metric, which combines
PageRank centrality with the explicit requirement that paper score is not biased by
paper age, is the best-performing metric overall in identifying the Milestone
Letters. The lack of time bias in the new metric makes it also possible to use it
to compare papers of different age on the same scale. We find that network-based
metrics identify the Milestone Letters better than metrics based on the citation
count, which suggests that the structure of the citation network contains
information that can be used to improve the ranking of scientific publications. The
methods and results presented here are relevant for all evolving systems where
network centrality metrics are applied, for example the World Wide Web and online
social networks. An interactive Web platform where it is possible to view the
ranking of the APS papers by rescaled PageRank is available at the address

difficult or impossible for studies to achieve their goals, while drawing samples
that are too large may drain resources that could be better used for other
purposes. This paper considers three common situations and offers advice for
dealing with each. First, an entire population of records is available for an
institution. We argue that, even though all records have been collected, the use of
inferential statistics, significance testing, and confidence intervals is both
common and desirable. Second, because of limited resources or other factors, a
sample of records needs to be drawn. We demonstrate how power analyses can be used
to determine in advance how large the sample needs to be to achieve the study's
goals. Third, the sample size may already be determined, either because the data
have already been collected or because resources are limited. We show how power
analyses can again be used to determine how large effects need to be in order to
find effects that are statistically significant. Such information can then help
bibliometricians to develop reasonable expectations as to what their analysis can
accomplish. While we focus on issues of interest to bibliometricians, our
recommendations and procedures can easily be adapted for other fields of study. (C)

AB This paper explores a 7-stage cluster methodology as a process to identify
appropriate indicators for evaluation of individual researchers at a disciplinary
and seniority level. Publication and citation data for 741 researchers from 4
disciplines was collected in Web of Science. Forty-four indicators of individual
researcher performance were computed using the data. The clustering solution was
supported by continued reference to the researcher's curriculum vitae, an effect
analysis and a risk analysis. Disciplinary appropriate indicators were identified
and used to divide the researchers into four groups; low, middle, high and
extremely high performers. Seniority-specific indicators were not identified. The
practical importance of the recommended disciplinary appropriate indicators is
concerning. Our study revealed several critical concerns that should be
investigated in the application of statistics in research evaluation.
The strength of the 7-stage cluster methodology is that it makes clear that in
the evaluation of individual researchers, statistics cannot stand alone. The
methodology is reliant on contextual information to verify the bibliometric values
and cluster solution. It is important to do studies that investigate the usefulness
of statistical evaluation methodologies to help us as a community learn more about
the appropriateness of particular bibliometric indicators in the analysis of
different researcher profiles. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Understanding the structural change and evolution of networks for predicting
their dynamics is one of the fundamental problems in network related studies. In
order to uncover the dynamic structural patterns of a network over time, it is
vital to investigate the ways nodes behave at a local level. So, it is important to
know the reasons why nodes stop a relationship or select a new partner, compared to
other alternatives, for establishing a link. This study aims to understand the
processes of network evolution by quantitatively examining the attachment behaviors
of nodes in a real collaboration network by identifying the characteristics of the
existing nodes which can impact on their link formation process. To do so,
different link formation or attachment processes such as cohesiveness, cumulative
advantage, assortative mixing, and structural position are examined. The results
indicate that structural position, the tendency to connect to the nodes in a
strategic intermediating position in the network, is the most effective processes
that expose the attachment behavior of nodes during the evolution of a
collaboration network. Understanding these effective processes can help to predict
more precisely how the nodes' local structure and consequently the overall network
structural change over time. This could support researchers, decision makers or
practitioners to manage the nodes (agents) in their social or technical networks
(systems) for reaching their organizational goals. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB The Finnish publication channel quality ranking system was established in 2010.
The system is expert-based, where separate panels decide and update the rankings of
a set of publications channels allocated to them. The aggregated rankings have a
notable role in the allocation of public resources into universities. The purpose
of this article is to analyze this national ranking system. The analysis is mainly
based on two publicly available databases containing the publication source
information and the actual national publication activity information. Using
citation-based indicators and other available information with association rule
mining, decision trees, and confusion matrices, it is shown that most of the
expert-based rankings can be predicted and explained using automatically
constructed reference models. Publication channels, for which the Finnish expert-
based rank is higher than the estimated one, are mainly characterized by higher
publication activity or recent upgrade of the rank. Such findings emphasize the
importance of openness of information on a ranking system, with its multifaceted
evaluation. (C) 2016 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. This is an open access

AB Braun, Glanzel, and Schubert (2006) recommended using the h-index as an
alternative to the journal impact factor (IF) to qualify journals. In this paper, a
Bayesian-based sensitivity analysis is performed with the aid of mathematical
models to examine the behavior of the journal h-index to changes in the
publication/citation counts of journals. Sensitivity of the h-index was most
apparent for changes in the number of citations, revealing similar patterns of
behavior for almost all models and independently to the field of research. In
general, the h-index was found to be robust to changes in citations up to
approximately the 25th percentile of the citation distribution, inflating its value
afterwards. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

altmetrics in BibSonomy are mildly correlated. Furthermore, grouping publications
by user-generated tags results in topic-homogeneous subsets that exhibit higher
correlations with citations than the full corpus. We find that posts, exports, and
visits of publications are correlated with citations and even bear predictive power
over future impact. Machine learning classifiers predict whether the number of
citations that a publication receives in a year exceeds the median number of
citations in that year, based on the usage counts of the preceding year. In that
setup, a Random Forest predictor outperforms the baseline on average by seven
percentage points. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Mapping the evolution of scientific fields has drawn much attention in recent
years. Researchers have proposed various methods to describe, explain and predict
different aspects of science. Network-based analysis has been widely used for
knowledge networks, in order to track the changes of research topics and the spread
of scientific ideas. Here we propose a novel approach for mapping the science from
the perspective of cross-field authors. Computer science is selected based on its
interdisciplinary applications. We build a scientific network consisting of
computer science conferences as nodes, and two conferences are linked if there
exist authors that published papers on both conferences. The scientific fields are
identified by community detection algorithm. The results suggest the proposed
method based on author overlaps across fields are effective in mapping the science.

AB Large-scale information, especially in the form of documents, is potentially
useful for decision-making but intensifies the information overload problem. To
cope with this problem, this paper proposes a method named RepExtract to extract a
representative subset from large-scale documents. The extracted representative
subset possesses three desirable features: high coverage of the content of the
original document set, low redundancy within the extracted subset, and consistent
distribution with the original set. Extensive experiments were conducted on
benchmark datasets, demonstrating the superiority of RepExtract over the benchmark
methods in terms of the three features above. A user study was also conducted by
collecting human evaluations of different methods, and the results indicate that
users can gain an understanding of large-scale documents precisely and efficiently
through a representative subset extracted by the proposed method. (C) 2016 Elsevier

AB For the normalization of citation counts, two different kinds of methods are
possible and used in bibliometrics: the cited-side and citing-side normalizations
both of which can also be applied in the normalization of "Mendeley reader counts".
Haunschild and Bornmann (2016a) introduced the paper-side normalization of reader
counts (mean normalized reader score, MNRS) which is an adaptation of the cited-
side normalization. Since the calculation of the MNRS needs further data besides
data from Mendeley (a field-classification scheme, such as the Web of Science
subject categories), we introduce here the reader-side normalization of reader
counts which is an adaptation of the citing-side normalization and does not need
further data from other sources, because self-assigned Mendeley disciplines are
used. In this study, all articles and reviews of the Web of Science core collection
with publication year 2012 (and a DOI) are used to normalize their Mendeley reader
counts. The newly proposed indicator (mean discipline normalized reader score,
MDNRS) is obtained, compared with the MNRS and bare reader counts, and studied
theoretically and empirically. We find that: (i) normalization of Mendeley reader
counts is necessary, (ii) the MDNRS is able to normalize Mendeley reader counts in
several disciplines, and (iii) the MNRS is able to normalize Mendeley reader counts
in all disciplines. This generally favorable result for the MNRS in all disciplines
leads to the recommendation to prefer the MNRS over the MDNRS provided that the
user has an external field-classification scheme at hand. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Admittedly, despite the plethora of scientometric indices proposed to rank
scientists, none of them can fully capture the performance and impact of a
scientist, since each index quantifies only one or a few aspects of his/her
multifarious performance. Therefore, the task of scientometric ranking can be seen
as a multi-dimensional ranking problem, where the different indices comprise the
dimensions. The application of the skyline operator comes then as a natural
solution to the problem. In this article we apply the skyline operator to scientist
ranking to identify those scientists whose performance cannot be surpassed by
others' with respect to all attributes. This technique can be used as a tool for
short-listing distinguished researchers in case of award nomination. (C) 2016

AB A new data source providing the citation links of book publications, the Book
Citation Index (BKCI), was recently released. A deeper understanding of the
citation characteristics of book publications is needed before specific
bibliometric indicators can be developed. In this study, the characteristics of
citation distribution concentration in journal and book literature in Web of
Science Core Collection (WoS), and the differences of these characteristics across
fields, levels of aggregation and citation periods were probed to determine
possible applications of this new data source for bibliometric studies. Even though
the aggregation scheme is not sound for evaluation practices in books, aggregation
matters much more for edited books in the sciences than for those in the social
sciences and humanities. Journal articles have the least concentrated citation
distribution in the sciences, while books play a more important role than other
document types in the humanities. In the social sciences, both edited books and
authored books have citation concentration distribution similar to journal
articles. In addition, the Leimkuhler curves showed that citation window length (3
years vs. 9 years) does not affect the citation concentrations of most document
types in journal and book literature significantly. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Quantitative analysis of the scientific literature is a frequent task in
bibliometrics. Several large online resources collect and disseminate bibliographic
information, paving the way for broad analyses and statistics. The Europe PubMed
Central (PMC) and its Web Services is one of these resources, providing a rich
platform to retrieve information and metadata on scientific publications. However,
a complete bibliometric analysis that involves gathering information and deriving
statistics on an author, topic, or country is laborious when consuming Web Services
on the command-line or using low level automation. In contrast, scientific workflow
managers can integrate different types of software tools to automate multi-step
processes. The Taverna workflow engine is a popular open-source scientific workflow
manager, giving easy access to available Web Services. In this tutorial, we
demonstrate how to design scientific workflows for bibliometric analyses in Taverna
by integrating Europe PubMed Central Web Services and statistical analysis tools.
To our knowledge, this is also the first time scientific workflow managers have
been used to perform bibliometric analyses using these Web Services. (C) 2016 The

AB As much effort has been made to accelerate the publication of research results,
nowadays the number of papers per scientist is much larger than before. In this
context, how to identify the representative work for individual researcher is an
important yet uneasy problem. Addressing it will help policy makers better evaluate
the achievement and potential of researchers. So far, the representative work of a
researcher is usually selected as his/her most highly cited paper or the paper
published in top journals. Here, we consider the representative work of a scientist
as an important paper in his/her area of expertise. Accordingly, we propose a self-
avoiding preferential diffusion process to generate personalized ranking of papers
for each scientist and identify their representative works. The citation data from
American Physical Society (APS) are used to validate our method. We find that the
self avoiding preferential diffusion method can rank the Nobel prize winning paper
in each Nobel laureate's personal ranking list higher than the citation count and
PageRank methods, indicating the effectiveness of our method. Moreover, the
robustness analysis shows that our method can highly rank the representative papers
of scientists even if partial citation data are available or spurious behaviors
exist. The method is finally applied to revealing the research patterns (i.e.
consistency-oriented or diversity-oriented) of different scientists, institutes and
countries. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI From rankings to funnel plots: The question of accounting for
uncertainty when assessing university research performance
LA English

AB The work applies the funnel plot methodology to measure and visualize
uncertainty in the research performance of Italian universities in the science
disciplines. The performance assessment is carried out at both discipline and
overall university level. The findings reveal that for most universities the
citation-based indicator used gives insufficient statistical evidence to infer that
their research productivity is inferior or superior to the average. This general
observation is one that we could indeed expect in a higher education system that is
essentially non-competitive. The question is whether the introduction of
uncertainty in performance reporting, while technically sound, could weaken
institutional motivation to work towards continuous improvement. (C) 2016 Elsevier

AB Many different citation-based indicators are used by researchers and research
evaluators to help evaluate the impact of scholarly outputs. Although the
appropriateness of individual citation indicators depends in part on the
statistical properties of citation counts, there is no universally agreed best-
fitting statistical distribution against which to check them. The two current
leading candidates are the discretised lognormal and the hooked or shifted power
law. These have been mainly tested on sets of articles from a single field and year
but these collections can include multiple specialisms that might dilute their
properties. This article fits statistical distributions to 50 large subject-
specific journals in the belief that individual journals can be purer than subject
categories and may therefore give clearer findings. The results show that in most
cases the discretised lognormal fits significantly better than the hooked power
law, reversing previous findings for entire subcategories. This suggests that the
discretised lognormal is the more appropriate distribution for modelling pure
citation data. Thus, future analytical investigations of the properties of citation
indicators can use the lognormal distribution to analyse their basic properties.
This article also includes improved software for fitting the hooked power law. (C)

of a new citation impact indicator

AB In this paper, a new field-normalized indicator is introduced, which is rooted
in early insights in bibliometrics, and is compared with several established field-
normalized indicators (e.g. the mean normalized citation score, MNCS, and
indicators based on percentile approaches). Garfield (1979) emphasizes that bare
citation counts from different fields cannot be compared for evaluative purposes,
because the "citation potential" can vary significantly between the fields.
Garfield (1979) suggests that "the most accurate measure of citation potential is
the average number of references per paper published in a given field.Based on this
suggestion, the new indicator is basically defined as follows: the citation count
of a focal paper is divided by the mean number of cited references in a field to
normalize citations. The new indicator is called citation score normalized by cited
references (CSNCR). The theoretical analysis of the CSNCR shows that it has the
properties of consistency and homogeneous normalization. The close relation of the
new indicator to the MNCS is discussed. The empirical comparison of the CSNCR with
other field-normalized indicators shows that it is slightly poorer able to field-
normalize citation counts than other cited-side normalized indicators (e.g. the
MNCS), but its results are favorable compared to two citing-side indicator variants
(SNCS indicators). Taken as a whole, the results of this study confirm the ability
of established indicators to field-normalize citations. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Identifying the statistical distribution that best fits citation data is
important to allow robust and powerful quantitative analyses. Whilst previous
studies have suggested that both the hooked power law and discretised lognormal
distributions fit better than the power law and negative binomial distributions, no
comparisons so far have covered all articles within a discipline, including those
that are uncited. Based on an analysis of 26 different Scopus subject areas in
seven different years, this article reports comparisons of the discretised
lognormal and the hooked power law with citation data, adding 1 to citation counts
in order to include zeros. The hooked power law fits better in two thirds of the
subject/year combinations tested for journal articles that are at least three years
old, including most medical, life and natural sciences, and for virtually all
subject areas for younger articles. Conversely, the discretised lognormal tends to
fit best for arts, humanities, social science and engineering fields. The
difference between the fits of the distributions is mostly small, however, and so
either could reasonably be used for modelling citation data. For regression
analyses, however, the best option is to use ordinary least squares regression
applied to the natural logarithm of citation counts plus one, especially for sets
of younger articles, because of the increased precision of the parameters. (C) 2016

AB Journal classification systems play an important role in bibliometric analyses.
The two most important bibliographic databases, Web of Science and Scopus, each
provide a journal classification system. However, no study has systematically
investigated the accuracy of these classification systems. To examine and compare
the accuracy of journal classification systems, we define two criteria on the basis
of direct citation relations between journals and categories. We use Criterion I to
select journals that have weak connections with their assigned categories, and we
use Criterion II to identify journals that are not assigned to categories with
which they have strong connections. If a journal satisfies either of the two
criteria, we conclude that its assignment to categories may be questionable.
Accordingly, we identify all journals with questionable classifications in Web of
Science and Scopus. Furthermore, we perform a more in-depth analysis for the field
of Library and Information Science to assess whether our proposed criteria are
appropriate and whether they yield meaningful results. It turns out that according
to our citation-based criteria Web of Science performs significantly better than
Scopus in terms of the accuracy of its journal classification system. (C) 2016

AB Citation impact indicators nowadays play an important role in research
evaluation, and consequently these indicators have received a lot of attention in
the bibliometric and scientometric literature. This paper provides an in-depth
review of the literature on citation impact indicators. First, an overview is given
of the literature on bibliographic databases that can be used to calculate citation
impact indicators (Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar). Next, selected
topics in the literature on citation impact indicators are reviewed in detail. The
first topic is the selection of publications and citations to be included in the
calculation of citation impact indicators. The second topic is the normalization of
citation impact indicators, in particular normalization for field differences.
Counting methods for dealing with co-authored publications are the third topic, and
citation impact indicators for journals are the last topic. The paper concludes by
offering some recommendations for future research. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB In the work presented in this paper, we analyse ranking algorithms that can be
applied to bibliographic citation networks and rank academic entities such as
papers and authors. We evaluate how well these algorithms identify important and
high-impact entities.
The ranking algorithms are computed on the Microsoft Academic Search (MAS) and
the ACM digital library citation databases. The MAS database contains 40 million
papers and over 260 million citations that span across multiple academic
disciplines, while the ACM database contains 1.8 million papers from the computing
literature and over 7 million citations.
We evaluate the ranking algorithms by using a test data set of papers and
authors that won renowned prizes at numerous computer science conferences. The
results show that using citation counts is, in general, the best ranking metric to
measure high-impact. However, for certain tasks, such as ranking important papers
or identifying high-impact authors, algorithms based on PageRank perform better.

the Italian National Scientific Qualification
LA English
DT Article
DE National Scientific Qualification; ASN; Evaluation of individuals;
Bibliometrics; Italy
ID COLLABORATION NETWORKS; H-INDEX
AB The Italian National Scientific Qualification (ASN) was introduced as a
prerequisite for applying for tenured associate or full professor positions at
state-recognized universities. The ASN is meant to attest that an individual has
reached a suitable level of scientific maturity to apply for professorship
positions. A five member panel, appointed for each scientific discipline, is in
charge of evaluating applicants by means of quantitative indicators of impact and
productivity, and through an assessment of their research profile. Many concerns
were raised on the appropriateness of the evaluation criteria, and in particular on
the use of bibliometrics for the evaluation of individual researchers. Additional
concerns were related to the perceived poor quality of the final evaluation
reports. In this paper we assess the ASN in terms of appropriateness of the applied
methodology, and the quality of the feedback provided to the applicants. We argue
that the ASN is not fully compliant with the best practices for the use of
bibliometric indicators for the evaluation of individual researchers; moreover, the
quality of final reports varies considerably across the panels, suggesting that
measures should be put in place to prevent sloppy practices in future ASN rounds.

AB In this paper, a novel method for analyzing media in Arabic using new
quantitative characteristics is proposed. A sequence of newspaper daily issues is
represented as histograms of occurrences of informative terms. The histograms
closeness is evaluated via a rank correlation coefficient by treating the terms as
ordinal data consistent with their frequencies. A new characteristic is introduced
to quantify the relationship of an issue with numerous earlier ones. A newspaper is
imaged as a time series of this characteristic values affected by the current
social situation. The change points of this process may indicate fluctuations in
the social behavior of the corresponding society as is evident from changes in the
linguistic content. Moreover, the similarity measure created by means of this
characteristic makes it possible to accurately derive the groups of homogeneous
issues without any additional information. The methodology is evaluated on
sequential issues of an Egyptian newspaper, Al-Ahraam, and a Lebanese newspaper,
Al-Akhbaar. The results exhibit the high ability of the proposed approach to expose
changes in the linguistic content and to connect them with changes in the structure
of society and the relationships in it. The method can be suitably extended to
every alphabetic language media. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB There is no agreement over which statistical distribution is most appropriate
for modelling citation count data. This is important because if one distribution is
accepted then the relative merits of different citation-based indicators, such as
percentiles, arithmetic means and geometric means, can be more fully assessed. In
response, this article investigates the plausibility of the discretised lognormal
and hooked power law distributions for modelling the full range of citation counts,
with an offset of 1. The citation counts from 23 Scopus subcategories were fitted
to hooked power law and discretised lognormal distributions but both distributions
failed a Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness of fit test in over three quarters of cases.
The discretised lognormal distribution also seems to have the wrong shape for
citation distributions, with too few zeros and not enough medium values for all
subjects. The cause of poor fits could be the impurity of the subject subcategories
or the presence of interdisciplinary research. Although it is possible to test for
subject subcategory purity indirectly through a goodness of fit test in theory with
large enough sample sizes, it is probably not possible in practice. Hence it seems
difficult to get conclusive evidence about the theoretically most appropriate
statistical distribution. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Citation is perhaps the mostly used metric to evaluate the scientific impact of
papers. Various measures of the scientific impact of researchers and journals rely
heavily on the citations of papers. Furthermore, in many practical applications,
people may need to know not only the current citations of a paper, but also a
prediction of its future citations. However, the complex heterogeneous temporal
patterns of the citation dynamics make the predictions of future citations rather
difficult. The existing state-of-the-art approaches used parametric methods that
require long period of data and have poor performance on some scientific
disciplines. In this paper, we present a simple yet effective and robust data
analytic method to predict future citations of papers from a variety of
disciplines. With rather short-term (e.g., 3 years after the paper is published)
citation data, the proposed approach can give accurate estimate of future
citations, outperforming state-of-the-art prediction methods significantly.
Extensive experiments confirm the robustness of the proposed approach across
various journals of different disciplines. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The use of science to understand its own structure is becoming popular, but
understanding the organization of knowledge areas is still limited because some
patterns are only discoverable with proper computational treatment of large-scale
datasets. In this paper, we introduce a network-based methodology combined with
text analytics to construct the taxonomy of science fields. The methodology is
illustrated with application to two topics: complex networks (CN) and photonic
crystals (PC). We built citation networks using data from the Web of Science and
used a community detection algorithm for partitioning to obtain science maps of the
fields considered. We also created an importance index for text analytics in order
to obtain keywords that define the communities. A dendrogram of the relatedness
among the subtopics was also obtained. Among the interesting patterns that emerged
from the analysis, we highlight the identification of two well-defined communities
in PC area, which is consistent with the known existence of two distinct
communities of researchers in the area: telecommunication engineers and physicists.
With the methodology, it was also possible to assess the interdisciplinary and time
evolution of subtopics defined by the keywords. The automatic tools described here
are potentially useful not only to provide an overview of scientific areas but also
to assist scientists in performing systematic research on a specific topic. (C)

AB We introduce a new tool - the CitedReferencesExplorer (CRExplorer,
www.crexplorer.net) - which can be used to disambiguate and analyze the cited
references (CRs) of a publication set downloaded from the Web of Science (WoS). The
tool is especially suitable to identify those publications which have been
frequently cited by the researchers in a field and thereby to study for example the
historical roots of a research field or topic. CRExplorer simplifies the
identification of key publications by enabling the user to work with both a graph
for identifying most frequently cited reference publication years (RPYs) and the
list of references for the RPYs which have been most frequently cited. A further
focus of the program is on the standardization of CRs. It is one of the biggest
problems in bibliometrics that there are several variants of the same CR in the
WoS. In this study, CRExplorer is used to study the CRs of all papers published in
the Journal of Informetrics. The analyses focus on the most important papers
published between 1980 and 1990. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Global cities are defined, on the one hand, as the major command and control
centres of the world economy and, on the other hand, as the most significant sites
of the production of innovation. As command and control centres, they are home to
the headquarters of the most powerful MNCs of the global economy, while as sites
for the production of innovation they are supposed to be the most important sites
of corporate research and development (R&D) activities. In this paper, we conduct a
bibliometric analysis of the data located in the Scopus and Forbes 2000 databases
to reveal the correlation between the characteristics of the above global city
definitions. We explore which cities are the major control points of the global
corporate R&D (home city approach), and which cities are the most important sites
of corporate R&D activities (host city approach). According to the home city
approach we assign articles produced by companies to cities where the decision-
making headquarters are located (i.e. to cities that control the companies R&D
activities), while according to the host city approach we assign articles to cities
where the R&D activities are actually conducted. Given Sassen's global city
concept, we expect global cities to be both the leading home cities and host
cities.
The results show that, in accordance with the global city concept, Tokyo, New
York, London and Paris surpass other cities as command points of global corporate
R&D (having 42 percent of companies scientific articles). However, as sites of
corporate R&D activities to be conducted, New York and Tokyo form a unique category
(having 28 percent of the articles). The gap between San Jose and Boston, and the
global cities has consistently narrowed because the formers are the leading centres
of the fastest growing innovative industries (e.g. information technology and
biotechnology) in the world economy, and important sites of international R&D
activities within these industries. The emerging economies are singularly
represented by Beijing; however, the position of Chinese capital (i.e. the number
of its companies scientific articles), has been strengthening rapidly. (C) 2016

AB A new methodology is proposed for comparing Google Scholar (GS) with other
citation indexes. It focuses on the coverage and citation impact of sources,
indexing speed, and data quality, including the effect of duplicate citation
counts. The method compares GS with Elseviers Scopus, and is applied to a limited
set of articles published in 12 journals from six subject fields, so that its
findings cannot be generalized to all journals or fields. The study is exploratory,
and hypothesis generating rather than hypothesis-testing. It confirms findings on
source coverage and citation impact obtained in earlier studies. The ratio of GS
over Scopus citation varies across subject fields between 1.0 and 4.0, while Open
Access journals in the sample show higher ratios than their non-OA counterparts.
The linear correlation between GS and Scopus citation counts at the article level
is high: Pearsons R is in the range of 0.8-0.9. A median Scopus indexing delay of
two months compared to GS is largely though not exclusively due to missing cited
references in articles in press in Scopus. The effect of double citation counts in
GS due to multiple citations with identical or substantially similar meta-data
occurs in less than 2% of cases. Pros and cons of article-based and what is termed
as concept-based citation indexes are discussed. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The paper investigates the theoretical response of h-type bibliometric
indicators developed over the past decade when faced with the problem of
manipulation through self-citation practices. An extreme self-citation scenario is
used to test the theoretical resistance of the research performance metrics to
strategic manipulation and to determine the magnitude of the impact that self-
citations may induce on the indicators. The original h-index, eighteen selected
variants, as well as traditional bibliometric indicators are considered. The
results of the theoretical study indicate that while all indicators are vulnerable
to manipulation, some of the h-index variants are more susceptible to the influence
of strategic behavior than others: elite set indicators prove more resilient than
the original h while other variants, including most of those directly derived from
the h-index, are shown to be less robust. Variants that take into account time
constraints prove to be especially useful for detecting potential manipulation. As
a practical tool which may aid further studies, the article offers a collection of
functions to compute the h-index and several of its variants in the R language and
environment for statistical computing. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The aim of this study is to explore the network effects of the national and
disciplinary community and actor attribute effects on the future performance of
scientists in two fields of social sciences in Croatia. Based on the publication
data from 1992 to 2012, extracted from three databases, we used the co-authorship
network from the period 1992-2001 for the specification of nine structural effects
to predict individual performance in the 2002-2012 period. Employing the auto-
logistic actor attribute models allowed the inclusion of six actor attributes and
the analysis of their effects simultaneously with network effects. The results show
that future performance is dependent on the national and disciplinary network both
in the psychology field and in the sociology field. When controlling for actor
attribute effects, these structural effects play a significant role only in
sociology, where activity in the network is a negative predictor and having a tie
with an actor who is going to be above average in productivity is a positive
predictor of the outcome. Institution type in psychology, age and the previous
productivity in sociology are significant actor attribute effects. We used log-odds
to demonstrate the probabilities of the outcome for three prototypical egonet
structures: open, closed and complex; with different numbers of alters with
attribute. Specific directions for future research are identified. (C) 2016

AB The ability to attract and retain talented professors is a distinctive
competence of world-class universities and a source of competitive advantage. The
ratio of top scientists to academic staff could therefore be an indicator of the
competitive strength of the universities. This work identifies the Italian top
scientists in over 200 fields, by their research productivity. It then ranks the
relative universities by the ratio of top scientists to overall faculty. Finally,
it contrasts this list with the ranking list by average productivity of the overall
faculty. The analysis is carried out at the field, discipline, and overall
university levels. The paper also explores the secondary question of whether the
ratio of top scientists to faculty is related to the size of the university. (C)

AB The volume of the existing research literature is such it can make it difficult
to find highly relevant information and to develop an understanding of how a
scientific topic has evolved. Prior research on topic evolution has often leveraged
refinements to Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) to identify emerging topics.
However, such methods do not answer the question of which studies contributed to
the evolution of a topic. In this paper we show that meta-paths over a
heterogeneous bibliographic network (consisting of papers, authors and venues) can
be used to identify the network elements that made the greatest contributions to a
topic. In particular, by adding derived edges that capture the contribution of
papers, authors, and venues to a topic (using PageRank algorithm), a restricted
meta-path over the bibliographic network can be used to restrict the evolution of
topics to the context of interest to a researcher. We use such restricted meta-
paths to construct a topic evolution tree that can provide researchers with a web-
based visualization of the evolution of a scientific topic in the context of
interest to them. Compared to baseline networks without restrictions, we find that
restricted networks provide more useful topic evolution trees. (C) 2016 Elsevier

AB Although statistical models fit many citation data sets reasonably well with the
best fitting models being the hooked power law and discretised lognormal
distribution, the fits are rarely close. One possible reason is that there might be
more uncited articles than would be predicted by any model if some articles are
inherently uncitable. Using data from 23 different Scopus categories, this article
tests the assumption that removing a proportion of uncited articles from a citation
dataset allows statistical distributions to have much closer fits. It also
introduces two new models, zero inflated discretised lognormal distribution and the
zero inflated hooked power law distribution and algorithms to fit them. In all 23
cases, the zero inflated version of the discretised lognormal distribution was an
improvement on the standard version and in 15 out of 23 cases the zero inflated
version of the hooked power law was an improvement on the standard version. Without
zero inflation the discretised lognormal models fit the data better than the hooked
power law distribution 6 out of 23 times and with it, the discretised lognormal
models fit the data better than the hooked power law distribution 9 out of 23
times. Apparently uncitable articles seem to occur due to the presence of academic-
related magazines in Scopus categories. In conclusion, future citation analysis and
research indicators should take into account uncitable articles, and the best
fitting distribution for sets of citation counts from a single subject and year is
either the zero inflated discretised lognormal or zero inflated hooked power law.

TI Opinion polarity detection in Twitter data combining shrinkage
regression and topic modeling
LA English
DT Article
DE Sentiment analysis; Shrinkage regression; Topic modeling
ID SENTIMENT CLASSIFICATION; WEB FORUMS; REVIEWS; SELECTION; SVM
AB We propose a method to analyze public opinion about political issues online by
automatically detecting polarity in Twitter data. Previous studies have focused on
the polarity classification of individual tweets. However, to understand the
direction of public opinion on a political issue, it is important to analyze the
degree of polarity on the major topics at the center of the discussion in addition
to the individual tweets. The first stage of the proposed method detects polarity
in tweets using the Lasso and Ridge models of shrinkage regression. The models are
beneficial in that the regression results provide sentiment scores for the terms
that appear in tweets. The second stage identifies the major topics via a latent
Dirichlet analysis (LDA) topic model and estimates the degree of polarity on the
LDA topics using term sentiment scores. To the best of our knowledge, our study is
the first to predict the polarities of public opinion on topics in this manner. We
conducted an experiment on a mayoral election in Seoul, South Korea and compared
the total detection accuracy of the regression models with five support vector
machine (SVM) models with different numbers of input terms selected by a feature
selection algorithm. The results indicated that the performance of the Ridge model
was approximately 7% higher on average than that of the SVM models. Additionally,
the degree of polarity on the LDA topics estimated using the proposed method was
compared with actual public opinion responses. The results showed that the polarity
detection accuracy of the Lasso model was 83%, indicating that the proposed method
was valid in most cases. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The arguments presented demonstrate that the Mean Normalized Citation Score
(MNCS) and other size-independent indicators based on the ratio to publications are
not indicators of research performance. The article provides examples of the
distortions when rankings by MNCS are compared to those based on indicators of
productivity. The authors propose recommendations for the scientometric community
to switch to ranking by research efficiency, instead of MNCS and other size-

AB Each year, researchers publish an immense number of scientific papers. While
some receive many citations, others receive none. Here we investigate whether any
of this variance can be explained by the choice of words in a paper's abstract. We
find that doubling the word frequency of an average abstract increases citations by
0.70%. We also find that journals which publish papers whose abstracts are shorter
and contain more frequently used words receive slightly more citations per paper.
Specifically, adding a 5 letter word to an abstract decreases the number of
citations by 0.02%. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the style
in which a paper's abstract is written bears some relation to its scientific
impact. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB We propose a new index to quantify SSRN downloads. Unlike the SSRN downloads
rank, which is based on the total number of an author's SSRN downloads, our index
also reflects the author's productivity by taking into account the download numbers
for the papers. Our index is inspired by - but is not the same as - Hirsch's h-
index for citations, which cannot be directly applied to SSRN downloads. We analyze
data for about 30,000 authors and 367,000 papers. We find a simple empirical
formula for the SSRN author rank via a Gaussian function of the log of the number
of downloads. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The mean normalized citation score or crown indicator is a much studied
bibliometric indicator that normalizes citation counts across fields. We examine
the theoretical basis of the normalization method and, in particular, the
determination of the expected number of citations. We observe a theoretical bias
that raises the expected number of citations for low citation fields and lowers the
expected number of citations for high citation fields when interdisciplinary

AB The importance of collaboration in research is widely accepted, as is the fact
that articles with more authors tend to be more cited. Nevertheless, although
previous studies have investigated whether the apparent advantage of collaboration
varies by country, discipline, and number of co-authors, this study introduces a
more fine-grained method to identify differences: the geometric Mean Normalized
Citation Score (gMNCS). Based on comparisons between disciplines, years and
countries for two million journal articles, the average citation impact of articles
increases with the number of authors, even when international collaboration is
excluded. This apparent advantage of collaboration varies substantially by
discipline and country and changes a little over time. Against the trend, however,
in Russia solo articles have more impact. Across the four broad disciplines
examined, collaboration had by far the strongest association with impact in the
arts and humanities. Although international comparisons are limited by the
availability of systematic data for author country affiliations, the new indicator
is the most precise yet and can give statistical evidence rather than estimates.

TI Normalization of Mendeley reader counts for impact assessment
LA English
DT Article
DE Altmetrics; Mendeley; Normalization; Reader impact
ID CITATION IMPACT; ALTMETRICS; INDICATORS; HUMANITIES
AB A different number of citations can be expected for publications appearing in
different subject categories and publication years. For this reason, the citation-
based normalized indicator Mean Normalized Citation Score (MNCS) is used in
bibliometrics. Mendeley is one of the most important sources of altmetrics data.
Mendeley reader counts reflect the impact of publications in terms of readership.
Since a significant influence of publication year and discipline has also been
observed in the case of Mendeley reader counts, reader impact should not be
estimated without normalization. In this study, all articles and reviews of the Web
of Science core collection with a publication year of 2012 (and a DOI) are used to
normalize their Mendeley reader counts. A new indicator that determines the
normalized reader impact is obtained-the Mean Normalized Reader Score (MNRS) - and
compared with the MNCS. The MNRS enables us to compare the impact a paper has had
on Mendeley across subject categories and publication years. Comparisons on the
journal and university level show that the MNRS and MNCS correlate larger for 9601
journals than for 76 German universities. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Several citation-based indicators, including patent h-index, have been
introduced to evaluate the patenting activities of research organizations. However,
variants developed to complement h-index have not been utilized yet in the domain
of intellectual property management. The main purpose of this study is to propose
new indices that can be used to evaluate the patenting activities of research and
development (R&D) organizations, based on h-type complementary variants along with
traditional indicators. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) is used to identify those
indices. By applying the proposed framework to pharmaceutical R&D organizations,
which have their patents registered in the United States Patent Trademark Office
(USPTO), the following three indices are obtained: the forward citation, impact per
unit time, and patent family factors. The ranking obtained from the new indices can
represent the productive capacity of the qualified patent, patent commercialization
speed, and patent commercialization effort of research organizations. The new
proposed indices in this study are expected to contribute to the evaluation of the
patenting activities of R&D organizations from various perspectives. (C) 2015

AB In this paper, we try to answer two questions about any given scientific
discipline: first, how important is each subfield and second, how does a specific
subfield influence other subfields? We modify the well-known open-system Leontief
Input-Output Analysis in economics into a closed-system analysis focusing on
eigenvalues and eigenvectors and the effects of removing one subfield. We apply
this method to the subfields of physics. This analysis has yielded some promising
results for identifying important subfields (for example the field of statistical
physics has large influence while it is not among the largest subfields) and
describing their influences on each other (for example the subfield of mechanical
control of atoms is not among the largest subfields cited by quantum mechanics, but
our analysis suggests that these fields are strongly connected). This method is
potentially applicable to more general systems that have input-output relations
among their elements. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This study aims to shed light on the implementation of the digital object
identifier (DOI) in the two most important multidisciplinary databases, namely Web
of Science Core Collection and Scopus, within the last decade (2005-2014). The
results show a generally increased percentage of items with DOI in all the
disciplines in both databases, which provide very similar numbers and trends. While
the percentage of citable items with a DOI has already reached 90% in the Sciences
and the Social Sciences in 2014, it has remained much lower in the Arts &
Humanities, exceeding 50% only since 2013. The observed values for Books and
Proceedings are even lower despite the importance of these document types,
particularly for the Social Sciences and the Arts & Humanities. The fact that there
are still journals with a large number of items still lacking DOIs in 2014 should
be alarming for the corresponding editors and should give them reason to enhance
the formal quality and visibility of their journals. Finally, scientists are also
encouraged to review their publication strategies and to favour publication
channels with established DOI assignments. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB When comparing the citation impact of nations, departments or other groups of
researchers within individual fields, three approaches have been proposed:
arithmetic means, geometric means, and percentage in the top X%. This article
compares the precision of these statistics using 97 trillion experimentally
simulated citation counts from 6875 sets of different parameters (although all
having the same scale parameter) based upon the discretised lognormal distribution
with limits from 1000 repetitions for each parameter set. The results show that the
geometric mean is the most precise, closely followed by the percentage of a
country's articles in the top 50% most cited articles for a field, year and
document type. Thus the geometric mean citation count is recommended for future
citation-based comparisons between nations. The percentage of a country's articles
in the top 1% most cited is a particularly imprecise indicator and is not
recommended for international comparisons based on individual fields. Moreover,
whereas standard confidence interval formulae for the geometric mean appear to be
accurate, confidence interval formulae are less accurate and consistent for
percentile indicators. These recommendations assume that the scale parameters of
the samples are the same but the choice of indicator is complex and partly
conceptual if they are not. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID EXTRACTION
AB An innovative study of Wikipedia biographical pages is presented. It is shown
that the dates of some historical cataclysms may be reproduced from peculiarities
of lifespan changes over time. Time dependence of number of biographical pages
related to a year has a broken linear trend in logarithmic scale. It shows a sudden
change of the slope from 0.0006 to 0.008 per year near 1700 AC. Presumably, this
reflects the emergence of new ways of information dissemination associated with
printing of books and newspapers. Cultural or historical significance of a person
is measured using a number of proper Wikipedia references. We divided human
activity into nine categories using keyword search. They cover over 97% of the
extracted data. Time dependencies of shares of each category reveal evolution of
priorities or interests of mankind. Finally, categories were merged in just two
classes. We call them Personal and Public, introducing a new index of human
priorities as a ratio of Personal to Public. Being quite constant during almost the
entire history, the index shows a sharp jump at the end of the 20th century mainly
due to growth of Sport and Art groups over all others. We consider this as a kind
of revolution. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We introduce the author keyword coupling analysis (AKCA) method to visualize the
field of information science (2006-2015). We then compare the AKCA method with the
author bibliographic coupling analysis (ABCA) method in terms of first- and all-
author citation counts. We obtain the following findings: (1) The AKCA method is a
new and feasible method for visualizing a discipline's structure, and the ABCA and
AKCA methods have their respective strengths and emphases. The relation within the
ABCA method is based on the same references (knowledge base), whereas that within
the AKCA method is based on the same keywords (lexical linguistic). The AKCA method
appears to provide a less detailed picture, and more uneven sub-areas of a
discipline structure. The relationships between authors are narrow and direct and
feature multiple levels in AKCA. (2) All-author coupling provides a comprehensive
picture; thus, a complete view of a discipline structure may require both first-
and all-author coupling analyses. (3) Information science evolved continuously
during the second decade of the World Wide Web. The KDA (knowledge domain analysis)
camp became remarkably prominent, while the IR camp (information retrieval)
experienced a further decline in hard IR research, and became significantly
smaller; Patent analysis and Open Access emerged during this period. Mapping of
Science and Bibliometric evaluation also experienced substantial growth. (C) 2015

AB The search for correlates of scientific production is an important step toward
the formulation of decision-making guidelines on academic and funding policy under
a competitive system with continuously reduced budgets. Our goal here is to
identify drivers of the scientific production of researchers working at the
"Universidade Federal de Goias" (UFG), a medium-to-large public Brazilian
University, focusing on the effects of teaching load and supervision of graduate
and undergraduate students on scientific production of faculty members. We analyzed
data for 1487 faculty members of UFG, including the total number of papers
published between 2011-2013, a weighted-index of scientific production and the
number of publications in high-ranked journals (according to a Brazilian system of
journal ranking in different areas). These variables were regressed on gender,
teaching load at undergraduate and graduate levels, number of supervised
undergraduate, Master and Doctoral students, self-declared amount of time dedicated
to research and outreach, year of doctoral graduation, year of hiring and the
scientific production before doctoral graduation. Several regression models were
used to model scientific production, including ordinary least-square regression and
Hurdle negative binomial models. Although there are some differences among research
areas, the most important explanatory variable was the publication record of the
researcher before doctoral graduation, reinforcing the role of a solid academic
formation in terms of research experience. Undergraduate and graduate teaching
loads were negatively and positively correlated with scientific production,
respectively. However, the strength of the relationship was much higher for the
second than for the first relationship. These correlates of scientific production
provide guidelines for policy and management in universities, including criteria
for balancing research and teaching loads, awarding fellowships and research
grants, designing new policy for future hiring and creation of new graduate
programs. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID IMPACT FACTOR; INDICATORS; SNIP
AB The academic and research policy communities have seen a long debate concerning
the merits of peer review and quantitative citation-based metrics in evaluation of
research. Some have called for replacing peer review with use of metrics for some
evaluation purposes, while others have called for the use peer review informed by
metrics. Whatever one's position, a key question is the extent to which peer review
and quantitative metrics agree. In this paper we study the relation between the
three journal metrics source normalized impact per paper (SNIP), raw impact per
paper (RIP) and Journal Impact Factor (JIF) and human expert judgement. Using the
journal rating system produced by the Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA)
exercise, we examine the relationship over a set of more than 10,000 journals
categorized into 27 subject areas. We analyze the relationship from the dimensions
of correlation, distribution of the metrics over the rating tiers, and ROC
analysis. Our results show that SNIP consistently has stronger agreement with the
ERA rating, followed by RIP and then JIF along every dimension measured. The fact
that SNIP has a stronger agreement than RIP demonstrates clearly that the increase
in agreement is due to SNIP's database citation potential normalization factor. Our
results suggest that SNIP may be a better choice than RIP or JIF in evaluation of
journal quality in situations where agreement with expert judgment is an important
consideration. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Recent studies have shown that the Scopus bibliometric database is probably less
accurate than one thinks. As a further evidence of this fact, this paper presents a
structured collection of several weird typologies of database errors, which can
therefore be classified as horrors. Some of them concern the incorrect indexing of
so-called Online-First paper, duplicate publications, and the missing/incorrect
indexing of references. A crucial point is that most of these errors could probably
be avoided by adopting some basic data checking systems.
Although this paper does not provide a quantitative and systematic analysis
(which will be provided in a future publication), it can be easily understood that
these errors can have serious consequences such as: (i) making it difficult or even
impossible to retrieve some documents, and (ii) distorting bibliometric
indicators/metrics relating to journals, individual scientists or research
institutions.
Our attention is focused on the Scopus database, although preliminary data show
that the Web of Science database is far from being free from these errors. The tone
of the paper is deliberately provocative, in order to emphasize the seriousness of
these errors. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper analyzes from an axiomatic point of view a recent proposal for
counting citations: the value of a citation given by a paper is inversely
proportional to the total number of papers it cites. This way of fractionally
counting citations was suggested as a possible way to normalize citation counts
between fields of research having different citation cultures. It belongs to the
"citing-side" approach to normalization. We focus on the properties characterizing
this way of counting citations when it comes to ranking authors. Our analysis is
conducted within a formal framework that is more complex but also more realistic
than the one usually adopted in most axiomatic analyses of this kind. (C) 2015

AB We discuss, at the macro-level of nations, the contribution of research funding
and rate of international collaboration to research performance, with important
implications for the "science of science policy". In particular, we cross-correlate
suitable measures of these quantities with a scientometric-based assessment of
scientific success, studying both the average performance of nations and their
temporal dynamics in the space defined by these variables during the last decade.
We find significant differences among nations in terms of efficiency in turning
(financial) input into bibliometrically measurable output, and we confirm that
growth of international collaboration positively correlate with scientific success
with significant benefits brought by EU integration policies. Various geo-cultural
clusters of nations naturally emerge from our analysis. We critically discuss the
factors that potentially determine the observed patterns. (C) 2016 The Authors.

AB Publication keywords have been widely utilized to reveal the knowledge structure
of research domains. An important but under-addressed problem is the decision of
which keywords should be retained as analysis objects after a great number of
keywords are gathered from domain publications. In this paper, we discuss the
problems with the traditional term frequency (TF) method and introduce two
alternative methods: TF-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) and TF-Keyword Activity
Index (TF-KAI). These two methods take into account keyword discrimination by
considering their frequency both in and out of the domain. To test their
performance, the keywords they select in China's Digital Library domain are
evaluated both qualitatively and quantitatively. The evaluation results show that
the TF-KAI method performs the best: it can retain keywords that match expert
selection much better and reveal the research specialization of the domain with
more details. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Rankings in higher education are largely used to summarize a huge amount of
information into easily understandable numbers. They are also used by governments
in order to allocate funding. Nevertheless, they are often criticized. One stream
of criticism refers to the fact that rankings build up an ordinal order by
considering only the mean of the distribution of indicators and not their
variability. Using the micro-data from the Italian evaluation of the quality of
research (VQR, Valutazione della Qualita della Ricerca), we examine whether
difference in performance between departments with different position in the
ranking are distinguishable from random effects. We obtain a robust clustering of
departments in a limited number of groups. The number of groups is in the range 3-
7, while in most cases it is 4-6. The implications of these findings for evaluation
and research policy are explored. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Several investigations to and approaches for categorizing academic
journals/institutions/countries into different grades have been published in the
past. To the best of our knowledge, most existing grading methods use either a
weighted sum of quantitative indicators (including the case of one properly defined
quantitative indicator) or quantified peer review results. Performance measurement
is an important issue of concern for science and technology (S&T) management. In
this paper we address this issue, leading to multi-level frontiers resulting from
data envelopment analysis (DEA) models to grade selected countries/territories. We
use research funding and researchers as input indicators, and take papers,
citations and patents as output indicators. Our research results show that using
DEA frontiers we can unite countries/territories by different grades. These grades
reflect the corresponding countries' levels of performance with respect to multiple
inputs and outputs. Furthermore, we use papers, citations and patents as single
output (with research funding and researchers as inputs), respectively, to show
country/territory grade changes. In order to increase the insight in this approach,
we also incorporate a simple value judgment (that the number of citations is more
important than the number of papers) as prior information into the DEA models to
study the resulting changes of these Countries/Territories' performance grades. (C)

AB This study uses cluster analysis as a tool for mapping diversity of publication
patterns in the social sciences and humanities (SSH). By algorithmic clustering of
1828 senior authors affiliated with 16 disciplines at five universities in
Flanders, Belgium, based on the similarity of their publication patterns during
2000-2011, we distinguish two broad publication styles, both of which are present
within each discipline. We conclude that diversity in SSH publication patterns cuts
across disciplinary boundaries. Cluster analysis shows promise for application in
research evaluation for the SSH. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Increasing interest in developing treatments for pancreatic cancer has led to a
surge in publications in the field. Analyses of drug-research trends are needed to
minimize risk in anti-cancer drug development. Here, we analyzed publications on
anti-cancer drugs extracted from PubMed records and ClinicalTrials datasets. We
conducted a drug cluster analysis by proposing the entity Dirichlet Multinomial
Regression (eDMR) technique and in-depth network analysis of drug cluster and
target proteins. The results show two distinct research clusters in both the
ClinicalTrials dataset and the PubMed records. Specifically, various targets
associated with anti-cancer drugs are investigated in new drug testing while the
diverse chemicals are studied together with a standard therapeutic agent in the
academic literature. In addition, our study confirms that drug research published
in PubMed is preceded by clinical trials. Although we only evaluate drugs for
pancreatic cancer in the present study, our method can be applied to drug-research
trends of other diseases. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper investigates the growth over time of the size of higher education
institutions (HEls), as measured by the number of academic staff, and its
association with HEI and country attributes. We analyze a sample of 837 HEIs from
18 countries derived from the European Tertiary Education Register (ETER) and from
the European Micro Data dataset (EUMIDA) for the years 2008 and 2012. Our analysis
shows that (1) HEIs growth is largely proportional to their size, leading to a
nearly log-normal distribution of size (Gibrat's law), even if small institutions
tend to grow faster; (2) the growth of the number of students and HEI's reputation
level positively influences HEI growth. Consequently (3) small HEls need a lower
level of reputation and less growth of students to continue growing over time,
while only highly reputed HEIs are able to maintain a large size over time. Our
results are relevant to understand the extent to which cumulative effects lead to a
lasting concentration of resources in the HE system and whether public policies are
able to redistribute resources based on merit. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Modeling coauthorship networks helps to understand the emergence and propagation
of thoughts in academic society. A random geometric graph is proposed to model
coauthor ship networks, the connection mechanism of which expresses the effects of
the academic influences and homophily of authors, and the collaborations between
research teams. Our analysis reveals that the modeled networks have a range of
features of empirical coauthor ship networks, namely, the degree distribution made
up of a mixture Poisson distribution with a power-law tail, clear community
structure, small-world, high clustering, and degree assortativity. Moreover, the
underlying formulae of the tail and forepart of the degree distribution, and the
tail of the scaling relation between local clustering coefficient and degree are
derived for the modeled networks, and are also applicable to the empirical
networks. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this study we present an application which can be accessed via
www.excellence-networks.net and which represents networks of scientific
institutions worldwide. The application is based on papers (articles, reviews and
conference papers) published between 2007 and 2011. It uses (network) data, on
which the SCImago Institutions Ranking is based (Scopus data from Elsevier). Using
this data, institutional networks have been estimated with statistical models
(Bayesian multilevel logistic regression, BMLR) for a number of Scopus subject
areas. Within single subject areas, we have investigated and visualized how
successfully overall an institution (reference institution) has collaborated
(compared to all the other institutions in a subject area), and with which other
institutions (network institutions) a reference institution has collaborated
particularly successfully. The "best paper rate" (statistically estimated) was used
as an indicator for evaluating the collaboration success of an institution. This
gives the proportion of highly cited papers from an institution, and is considered
generally as an indicator for measuring impact in bibliometrics. (C) 2016 Elsevier

AB We propose a method to measure the effectiveness of the recruitment and turnover
of professors, in terms of their research performance. The method presented is
applied to the case of Italian universities over the period 2008-2012. The work
then analyses the correlation between the indicators of effectiveness used, and
between the indicators and the universities' overall research performance. In
countries that conduct regular national assessment exercises, the evaluation of
effectiveness in recruitment and turnover could complement the overall research
assessments. In particular, monitoring such parameters could assist in deterring
favoritism, in countries exposed to such practices. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Policy-makers working at the national and regional levels could find the
territorial mapping of research productivity by field to be useful in informing
both research and industrial policy. Research-based private companies could also
use such mapping for efficient selection in localizing R&D activities and
university research collaborations. In this work we apply a bibliometric
methodology for ranking by research productivity: (i) the fields of research for
each territory (region and province); and (ii) the territories for each scientific
field. The analysis is based on the 2008-2012 scientific output indexed in the Web
of Science, by all professors on staff at Italian universities. The population is
over 36,000 professors, active in 192 fields and 9 disciplines. (C) 2015 Elsevier

AB The enormous amount of biomedicine's natural-language texts creates a daunting
challenge to discover novel and interesting patterns embedded in the text corpora
that help biomedical professionals find new drugs and treatments. These patterns
constitute entities such as genes, compounds, treatments, and side effects and
their associations that spread across publications in different biomedical
specialties. This paper proposes SemPathFinder to discover previously unknown
relations in biomedical text. SemPathFinder overcomes the problems of Swanson's ABC
model by using semantic path analysis to tell a story about plausible connections
between biological terms. Storytelling-based semantic path analysis can be viewed
as relation navigation for bio-entities that are semantically close to each other,
and reveals insight into how a series of entity pairs is organized, and how it can
be harnessed to explain seemingly unrelated connections. We apply SemPathFinder for
two well-known use cases of Swanson's ABC model, and the experimental results show
that SemPathFinder detects all intermediate terms except for one and also infers
several interesting new hypotheses. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Is the expertise of evaluation panels congruent with the research

barycenters

AB Discipline-specific research evaluation exercises are typically carried out by
panels of peers, known as expert panels. To the best of our knowledge, no methods
are available to measure overlap in expertise between an expert panel and the units
under evaluation. This paper explores bibliometric approaches to determine this
overlap, using two research evaluations of the departments of Chemistry (2009) and
Physics (2010) of the University of Antwerp as a test case. We explore the
usefulness of overlay mapping on a global map of science (with Web of Science
subject categories) to gauge overlap of expertise and introduce a set of methods to
determine an entity's barycenter according to its publication output. Barycenters
can be calculated starting from a similarity matrix of subject categories (N
dimensions) or from a visualization thereof (2 dimensions). We compare the results
of the N-dimensional method with those of two 2-dimensional ones (Kamada-Kawai maps
and VOS maps) and find that they yield very similar results. The distance between
barycenters is used as an indicator of expertise overlap. The results reveal that
there is some discrepancy between the panel's and the groups' publications in both
the Chemistry and the Physics departments. The panels were not as diverse as the
groups that were assessed. The match between the Chemistry panel and the Department
was better than that between the Physics panel and the Department. (C) 2015

rank and scientific field

AB Individual research performance needs to be addressed by means of a diverse set
of indicators capturing the multidimensional framework of science. In this context,
Biplot methods emerge as powerful and reliable visualisation tools similar to a
scatterplot but capturing the multivariate covariance structures among bibliometric
indicators. In this paper, we introduce the Canonical Biplot technique to explore
differences in the scientific performance of Spanish CSIC researchers, organised by
field (Chemistry and Materials Science) and grouped by academic rank (research
fellows and three types of full-time permanent scientists). This method enables us
to build a Biplot where the groups of individuals are sorted out by the maximum
discriminating power between the different indicators considered. Besides, as
confidence intervals are displayed in the plot, statistical differences between
groups are liable to be studied simultaneously. Since test hypotheses are sensitive
to different sample size effects, sizes for some pairwise comparisons are computed.
We have found two gradients: a primary gradient where scientists mainly differ in
terms of age, production, number of collaborators, number of highly-cited papers
and their position in the byline of the publications; and a second gradient, in
which scientists with the same academic rank differ by sort of field. (C) 2015

AB The exponential growth in the number of scientific papers makes it increasingly
difficult for researchers to keep track of all the publications relevant to their
work. Consequently, the attention that can be devoted to individual papers,
measured by their citation counts, is bound to decay rapidly. In this work we make
a thorough study of the life-cycle of papers in different disciplines. Typically,
the citation rate of a paper increases up to a few years after its publication,
reaches a peak and then decreases rapidly. This decay can be described by an
exponential or a power law behavior, as in ultradiffusive processes, with
exponential fitting better than power law for the majority of cases. The decay is
also becoming faster over the years, signaling that nowadays papers are forgotten
more quickly. However, when time is counted in terms of the number of published
papers, the rate of decay of citations is fairly independent of the period
considered. This indicates that the attention of scholars depends on the number of
published items, and not on real time. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

and impact. The aim of the current work is to test for the existence of a similar
correlation for Italian publications. We also verify if such correlation differs:
(i) by subject category and macro-area; (ii) by document type; (iii) over the
course of time. The results confirm world-level evidence, showing a consistent and
significant linear growth in the citability of a publication with number of co-
authors, in almost all subject categories. The effects are more remarkable in the
fields of Social Sciences and Art & Humanities than in the Sciences - a finding not
so obvious scrutinizing previous studies. Moreover, our results partly disavow the
positive association between number of authors and prestige of the journal, as
measured by its impact factor. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The h-index is a celebrated indicator widely used to assess the quality of
researchers and organizations. Empirical studies support the fact that the h-index
is well correlated with other simple bibliometric indicators, such as the total
number of publications Nand the total number of citations C. In this paper we
introduce a new formula (h) over tilde (w) = (h) over tilde (w) (N, C, C-MAX), as a
representative predictive formula that relates functionally h to these aggregate
indicators, N, C and the highest citation count C-MAX. The formula is based on the
'specific' assumption of geometrically distributed citations, but provides a good
estimate of the h-index for the general case. To empirically evaluate the adequacy
of the fit of the proposed formula (h) over tilde (w), an empirical study with 131
datasets (13,347 papers; 288,972 citations) was carried out. The overall fit
(defined as the capacity of (h) over tilde (w) to reproduce the true value of h,
for each single scientist) was remarkably accurate. The predicted value was within
one of the actual value h for more than 60% of the datasets. We found, in
approximately three cases out of four, an absolute error less than or equal to 2,
and an average absolute error of only 1.9, for the whole sample of datasets. (C)

AB In this paper we evaluate citation networks of authors, publications and
journals, constructed from the 151 Web of Science database (Computer Science
categories). Our aim was to find a method with which to rank authors of scientific
papers so that the most important occupy the top positions. We utilized a hand-made
list of authors, each of whom have received an ACM Fellowship or have been awarded
by an ACM SIG (Artificial Intelligence or Hardware categories). The developed
method also included the adoption of the PageRank algorithm, which can be
considered a measure of prestige, as well as other measures of significance (h-
index, publication count, citation count, publication's author count), with these
measures analyzed regarding their influence on the final rankings.
Our main objective, to determine whether a better author ranking can be obtained
using journal values, was achieved. The best of our author ranking systems was
obtained by using journal impact values in PageRank, which was applied to a
citation network of publications. The effectiveness of the ranking system was
confirmed after calculations were carried out involving authors who were awarded
after the final year used in our dataset or who were awarded in selected
categories. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Quality versus quantity in scientific impact

ID CITATION ANALYSIS; SCIENCE; INDEX; UNIVERSALITY; JOURNALS
AB Citation metrics are becoming pervasive in the quantitative evaluation of
scholars, journals, and institutions. Hiring, promotion, and funding decisions
increasingly rely on a variety of impact metrics that cannot disentangle quality
from quantity of scientific output, and are biased by factors such as discipline
and academic age. Biases affecting the evaluation of single papers are compounded
when one aggregates citation-based metrics across an entire publication record. It
is not trivial to compare the quality of two scholars that during their careers
have published at different rates, in different disciplines, and in different
periods of time. Here we evaluate a method based on the generation of a statistical
baseline specifically tailored on the academic profile of each researcher. We
demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach in decoupling the roles of quantity
and quality of publications to explain how a certain level of impact is achieved.
The method can be extended to simultaneously suppress any source of bias. As an
illustration, we use it to capture the quality of the work of Nobel laureates
irrespective of number of publications, academic age, and discipline, even when
traditional metrics indicate low impact in absolute terms. The procedure is
flexible enough to allow for the evaluation of, and fair comparison among,
arbitrary collections of papers - scholar publication records, journals, and
institutions; in fact, it extends a similar technique that was previously applied
to the ranking of research units and countries in specific disciplines (Crespo),
Ortuno-Orti, & Ruiz-Castillo, 2012). We further apply the methodology to almost a
million scholars and over six thousand journals to measure the impact that cannot
be explained by the volume of publications alone. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Scientific collaboration is one of the important drivers of research progress
that supports researchers in the generation of novel ideas. Collaboration networks
and their impact on scientific activities thus already attracted some attention in
the research community, but no work so far studied possible factors which can
influence the network positions of the researchers at the individual level. The
objective of this paper is to investigate various characteristics and roles of the
researchers occupying important positions in the collaboration network. For this
purpose, we focus on the collaboration network among Canadian researchers during
the period of 1996 to 2010 and employ multiple regression models to estimate the
impact on network structure variables. Results highlight the crucial role of past
productivity of the researchers along with their available funding in determining
and improving their position in the co-authorship network. It is shown that
researchers who have great influence on their local community do not necessarily
publish high quality works. We also find that highly productive researchers not
only have more important connections but also play a critical role in connecting
other researchers. Moreover, although mid-career scientists tend to collaborate
more in knit groups and on average have higher influence on their local community,
our results specifically highlight the important role of young researchers who
occupy mediatory positions in the network which enable them to connect different
communities and fuel information transmission through the network. (C) 2015

AB The main rationale behind career grants is helping top talent to develop into
the next generation leading scientists. Does career grant competition result in the
selection of the best young talents? In this paper we investigate whether the
selected applicants are indeed performing at the expected excellent level something
that is hardly investigated in the research literature.
We investigate the predictive validity of grant decision-making, using a sample
of 260 early career grant applications in three social science fields. We measure
output and impact of the applicants about ten years after the application to find
out whether the selected researchers perform ex post better than the non-successful
ones. Overall, we find that predictive validity is low to moderate when comparing
grantees with all non-successful applicants. Comparing grantees with the best
performing non-successful applicants, predictive validity is absent. This implies
that the common belief that peers in selection panels are good in recognizing
outstanding talents is incorrect. We also investigate the effects of the grants on
careers and show that recipients of the grants do have a better career than the
non-granted applicants. This makes the observed lack of predictive validity even
more problematic. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID HIRSCH-INDEX
AB We provide three axiomatic characterizations of Egghe's g-index, which measures
a researcher's scientific output based on the number of papers the researcher has
published and the number of citations of each of the researcher's papers. We
formulate six new axioms for indexes, namely, tail independence (TA), square
monotonicity (SM), the cap condition (CC), strong square monotonicity (SSM),
increasing marginal citations (IMC), and increasing marginal citations+ (IMC+).
Along with the two well-known axioms T1 and T2 (Woeginger, 2008a), the g-index is
characterized by (i) T1, T2, TA, SM, and CC, (ii) T1, T2, TA, SSM, and IMC, and
(iii) T1, TA, SM, and IMC+. Two out of three characterizations are obtained by
adding axioms to our new characterization of the class of indexes satisfying TI,
T2, and TA, which are defined as generalizations of the g-index. Thus, the
remaining four axioms in our first and second characterizations SM, CC, SSM, and
IMC distinguish the original g-index from other related indexes in the class.
Furthermore, the independence of our axioms and that of Woeginger's study is shown.

KNOWLEDGE FLOWS; WEB; JOURNALS; SCOPUS; PERFORMANCE; HUMANITIES
AB National research impact indicators derived from citation counts are used by
governments to help assess their national research performance and to identify the
effect of funding or policy changes. Citation counts lag research by several years,
however, and so their information is somewhat out of date. Some of this lag can be
avoided by using readership counts from the social reference sharing site Mendeley
because these accumulate more quickly than citations. This article introduces a
method to calculate national research impact indicators from Mendeley, using
citation counts from older time periods to partially compensate for international
biases in Mendeley readership. A refinement to accommodate recent national changes
in Mendeley uptake makes little difference, despite being theoretically more
accurate. The Mendeley patterns using the methods broadly reflect the results from
similar calculations with citations and seem to reflect impact trends about a year
earlier. Nevertheless, the reasons for the differences between the indicators from
the two data sources are unclear. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Although software has helped researchers conduct research, little is known of
the impact of software on science. To fill this gap, this article proposes an
improved bootstrapping method to extract software entities from full-text papers
and assess their impact on science. Evaluation results show that the proposed
entity extraction system outperforms three baseline methods on extracting software
entities from full-text papers. The proposed method is then used to learn software
entities from all papers published in PLoS ONE in 2014. More than 2000 unique
software entities are obtained which accounted for more than 20,000 mentions and
more than 7000 citations. The paper finds that software is commonly used in the
scientific community along with a substantial uncitedness. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Bibliometric studies often rely on field-normalized citation impact indicators
in order to make comparisons between scientific fields. We discuss the connection
between field normalization and the choice of a counting method for handling
publications with multiple co-authors. Our focus is on the choice between full
counting and fractional counting. Based on an extensive theoretical and empirical
analysis, we argue that properly field-normalized results cannot be obtained when
full counting is used. Fractional counting does provide results that are properly
field normalized. We therefore recommend the use of fractional counting in
bibliometric studies that require field normalization, especially in studies at the
level of countries and research organizations. We also compare different variants
of fractional counting. In general, it seems best to use either the author-level or
the address-level variant of fractional counting. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Governments sometimes need to analyse sets of research papers within a field in
order to monitor progress, assess the effect of recent policy changes, or identify
areas of excellence. They may compare the average citation impacts of the papers by
dividing them by the world average for the field and year. Since citation data is
highly skewed, however, simple averages may be too imprecise to robustly identify
differences within, rather than across, fields. In response, this article
introduces two new methods to identify national differences in average citation
impact, one based on linear modelling for normalised data and the other using the
geometric mean. Results from a sample of 26 Scopus fields between 2009 and 2015
show that geometric means are the most precise and so are recommended for smaller
sample sizes, such as for individual fields. The regression method has the
advantage of distinguishing between national contributions to internationally
collaborative articles, but has substantially wider confidence intervals than the
geometric mean, undermining its value for any except the largest sample sizes. (C)

rankings for organizations and countries by either total number of highly-cited
articles (HCAs) or by ratio of HCAs to total publications. Neither are indicators
of efficiency. In the current work we propose an indicator of efficiency, the
number of HCAs per scientist, which can complement the productivity indicators
based on impact of total output. We apply this indicator to measure excellence in
the research of Italian universities as a whole, and in each field and discipline

ID MODEL
AB Author name disambiguation (AND) creates a daunting challenge in that
disambiguation techniques often draw false conclusions when applied to incomplete
or incorrect publication data. It becomes a more critical issue in the biomedical
domain where PubMed articles are written by a wide range of researchers
internationally. To tackle this issue, we create a carefully hand-crafted training
set drawn from the entire PubMed collection by going through multiple iterations.
We assess the quality of our training set by comparing it with SCOPUS-based
training set. In addition, for the performance enhancement of the AND techniques,
we propose a new set of publication features extracted by text mining techniques.
The results of the experiments show that all four supervised learning techniques
(Random Forest, C4.5, KNN, and SVM) with the new publication features (called NER
model) achieve improved performance over the baseline and hybrid edit distance
model. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Government-funded research institutes (GRIs) have played a pivotal role in
national R&D in many countries. A prerequisite for achieving desired goals of GRIs
with the limited R&D budget is to be able to effectively measure and compare R&D
performance of GRIs. This paper proposes the bottom-up approach in which the
performance of a GRI is measured based on the efficiency of its R&D projects. Data
envelopment analysis (DEA) is employed to measure R&D efficiency of projects, and
nonparametric statistical tests are run to measure and compare the R&D performance
of GRIs. We apply the bottom-up DEA approach to the performance measurements of 10
Korean GRIs conducting a total of 1481 projects. The two alternatives for
incorporating the relative importance of the output variables - the assurance
region (AR) model and output integration - are also discussed. The proposed bottom-
up approach can be used for formulating and implementing national R&D policy by
effectively assessing the performance of GRIs. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Research performance values are not certain. Performance indexes should
therefore be accompanied by uncertainty measures, to establish whether the
performance of a unit is truly outstanding and not the result of random
fluctuations. In this work we focus on the evaluation of research institutions on
the basis of average individual performance, where uncertainty is inversely related
to the number of research staff. We utilize the funnel plot, a tool originally
developed in meta-analysis, to measure and visualize the uncertainty in the
performance values of research institutions. As an illustrative example, we apply
the funnel plot to represent the uncertainty in the assessed research performance
for Italian universities active in biochemistry. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB While the modern science is characterized by an exponential growth in scientific
literature, the increase in publication volume clearly does not reflect the
expansion of the cognitive boundaries of science. Nevertheless, most of the metrics
for assessing the vitality of science or for making funding and policy decisions
are based on productivity. Similarly, the increasing level of knowledge production
by large science teams, whose results often enjoy greater visibility, does not
necessarily mean that "big science" leads to cognitive expansion. Here we present a
novel, big-data method to quantify the extents of cognitive domains of different
bodies of scientific literature independently from publication volume, and apply it
to 20 million articles published over 60-130 years in physics, astronomy, and
biomedicine. The method is based on the lexical diversity of titles of fixed quotas
of research articles. Owing to large size of quotas, the method overcomes the
inherent stochasticity of article titles to achieve <1% precision. We show that the
periods of cognitive growth do not necessarily coincide with the trends in
publication volume. Furthermore, we show that the articles produced by larger teams
cover significantly smaller cognitive territory than (the same quota of) articles
from smaller teams. Our findings provide a new perspective on the role of small
teams and individual researchers in expanding the cognitive boundaries of science.
The proposed method of quantifying the extent of the cognitive territory can also
be applied to study many other aspects of 'science of science.' (C) 2015 Elsevier

TI Multiplicative versus fractional counting methods for co-authored
publications. The case of the 500 universities in the Leiden Ranking
LA English
DT Article
DE Co-authorship; Counting methods; Citation impact
ID IMPACT; ALLOCATION; SCIENCE; CREDIT
AB This paper studies the assignment of responsibility to the participants in the
case of coauthored scientific publications. In the conceptual part, we establish
that one shortcoming of the full counting method is its incompatibility with the
use of additively decomposable citation impact indicators. In the empirical part of
the paper, we study the consequences of adopting the address-line fractional or
multiplicative counting methods. For this purpose, we use a Web of Science dataset
consisting of 3.6 million articles published in the 2005-2008 period, and
classified into 5119 clusters. Our research units are the 500 universities in the
2013 edition of the CWTS Leiden Ranking. Citation impact is measured using the Mean
Normalized Citation Score, and the Top 10% indicators. The main findings are the
following. Firstly, although a change of counting methods alters co-authorship and
citation impact patterns, cardinal differences between co-authorship rates and
between citation impact values are generally small. Nevertheless, such small
differences generate considerable re-rankings between universities. Secondly, the
universities that are more favored by the adoption of a fractional rather than a
multiplicative approach are those with a large co-authorship rate for the citation
distribution as a whole, a small co-authorship rate in the upper tail of this
distribution, a large citation impact performance, and a large number of solo
publications. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

INDICATOR; ECONOMICS; COUNTS; PLACE
AB The article presents a large-scale comparison of journal rankings based on seven
impact measures: Impact Factor (2- and 5-year), SJR, IPP, SNIP, H index, and
Article Influence Score. Three aspects of ranking stability in the 2007-2014 period
were analyzed: temporal, cross-discipline, and cross-indicator. Impact measures
based on five-year citation windows enable more stable journal rankings over time.
Journal rankings based on the source-normalized indicator (SNIP) have the largest
cross-discipline stability. Journals in the fields of social sciences and
humanities have lower temporal and cross-discipline ranking stability compared to
those in "hard" sciences. Although correlation coefficients indicate relatively
high agreement among the rankings based on different indicators, variations in
quartile and percentile ranks suggest different conclusions. WoS journals almost
linearly improve their ranking positions in Scopus lists, while many high-impact
journals covered by Scopus are not available in WoS. An important element of the
ranking stability is the discriminability of impact measures. Beyond the
segregation between the top and bottom ranked journals, our assessment of "quality"
relies in most cases on a rather arguable assumption that a couple of citations
more or less is making a big difference. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

PERSPECTIVE
AB The aim of this study is to compare PhD students' performance with respect to
gender using a number of matching methods. The data consists of fine-grained
information about PhD-students at the Institute of Clinical Research at the
University of Southern Denmark. Men and women are matched controlling for sub-
disciplinary affiliation, education, year of enrolment and age. Publications and
citations are identified in Web of Science.
Our study shows that the average total number of publication is slightly higher
for men than for women. Excluding the "other" group of publications from the
analyses reveals that there is a negligible difference between men and women in
terms of published articles. A substantial proportion of women is on maternity
leave during the time period analysed and thus we would expect their productivity
to be considerably lower. Similarly, we have found very little difference between
the citation impact of men and women.
We find matching methods to be a promising set of methods for evaluating
productivity and impact of individuals from various sub-fields, universities and
time periods as we are able to discard some of the underlying factors determining
the results of analyses of gender differences in productivity and citation impact.

AB The assessment of research topics according to their development stage can be
used for different purposes, most importantly for decisions regarding the
(financial) support of research groups and regions. In this work, we try to
determine the influencing factors of emerging scientific topics during their early
development stage. Documents in five pre-defined fields are analyzed with regard to
the characteristics of the involved authors, their references and journals. With
the help of an assignment to emerging and established topics, the publication
behavior of documents in different development stages can be compared. Foremost,
indicators can be derived that can help to identify publications in emerging topics
in science at an early-stage after publication.
The results show that the field differences are so pronounced that they hamper
generalization. The field specific analysis, however, suggests that at least for
some fields a pre-selection of emerging topics can be made. In technical fields,
the involvement of larger groups of researchers is an apparent feature, while in
medicine a contrary observation could be made. In addition, for the field of
engineering we found that emerging topics are more often published in older but
smaller journals, which indicates a high specialization of the publications. (C)

AB Over the last decade, the relationship between interdisciplinarity and
scientific impact has been the focus of many bibliometric papers, with diverging
results. This paper aims at contributing to this body of research, by analyzing the
level of interdisciplinarity, compiled with the Simpson Index, of the top 1% most
highly cited papers and of papers with lower citation percentile ranks. Results
shows that the top 1% most cited papers exhibit higher levels of
interdisciplinarity than papers in other citation rank classes and that this
relationship is observed in more than 90% of NSF specialties. This suggests that
interdisciplinary research plays a more important role in generating high impact
knowledge. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Using (binomial) regression analysis, we run models using citation windows of
one to ten years with both annual citation and cumulative citations as dependent
variables, and with both bibliometric and quality indicators (judgments of peers)
as independent variables. The bibliometric variables are the Journal Impact Factor
(JIF) of the publication medium, the numbers of authors and pages, and the
statistical citedness of the references used within the paper. We find that the JIF
has a larger influence on the citation impact of a publication than the quality
(measured by judgments of peers). However, the number of pages and the quality of
the references are less influential. The influence of JIF peaks after three years
and then declines (in most regression analyses), but remains higher than the
influence of quality judgments even after ten years. These results call into
question a discrepancy between the algorithmically based indicators and the
qualitative judgments by experts. The latter seems less predictive for future
citation than a combination of algorithmic constructs. The results of this study
can contribute to the empirical specification of the relevance of a normative
versus a constructivist theory of citation. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB In this paper we investigate economies of scale and specialization of European
universities. The proposed approach builds on the notion that university production
is a multi-input multi-output process different than standard production activity.
The analyses are based on an interesting database which integrates the main
European universities data on inputs and outputs with bibliometric data on
publications, impact and collaborations. We pursue a cross-country perspective; we
include subject mix and introduce a robust modeling of production trade-offs.
Finally we test the statistical significance of scale and specialization and find
that they both have a significant impact on the efficiency of the Humboldt model.
Nevertheless, confirming previous findings, specialization has not a significant
impact on the efficiency of the research model. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

Year Spectroscopy

AB Reference Publication Year Spectroscopy (RPYS) is a scientometric technique that
effectively reveals punctuated peaks of historical scientific impact on a specified
research field or technology. In many cases, a seminal discovery serves as the
driving force underlying any given peak. Importantly, the results from a RPYS
analyses are represented on their own distinct scales, the bounds of which vary
considerably across analyses. This makes comparing years of punctuated impact
across multiple RPYS analyses problematic. In this paper, we propose a data
transformation and visualization technique that resolves this challenge.
Specifically, using a rank-order normalization procedure, we compress the results
of multiple RPYS analyses into a single, consistent rank scale that clearly
highlights years of punctuated impact across RPYS analyses. We suggest that rank
transformation increases the effectiveness of this scientometric technique to
reveal the scope of historical impact of seminal works by allowing researchers to
simultaneously consider results from multiple RPYS analyses. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

AB The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of five entity
extraction methods for the task of identifying entities from scientific
publications, including two vocabularybased methods (a keyword-based and a
Wikipedia-based) and three model-based methods (conditional random fields (CRF),
CRF with keyword-based dictionary, and CRF with Wikipedia-based dictionary). These
methods are applied to an annotated test set of publications in computer science.
Precision, recall, accuracy, area under the ROC curve, and area under the
precision-recall curve are employed as the evaluative indicators. Results show that
the model-based methods outperform the vocabulary-based ones, among which CRF with
keyword-based dictionary has the best performance. Between the two vocabularybased
methods, the keyword-based one has a higher recall and the Wikipedia-based one has
a higher precision. The findings of this study help inform the understanding of
informetric research at a more granular level. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The citation behavior of Nobel Prize winning articles in physics published by
selected Chinese Americans, discussed before (Liu, Y. X. & Rousseau, R. (2014).
Journal of American Society for Information Science and Technology, 65(2), 281-
289), is analyzed using a unified Avrami-Weibull equation based on concepts of
formation of citation nuclei instantaneously and progressively similar to the
concepts involved in the theories of overall crystallization of solid phase from a
closed liquid system of fixed volume. It was found that: (1) initial concave and
convex curvatures of plots of cumulative citations L(t) of individual articles
against citation time t are associated with the generation of citations by
instantaneous and progressive citation nucleation, respectively, (2) the time
constant ID and exponent q in the unified relation are indicators that distinguish
between the L(t) plots with initial concave and convex curvatures for individual
articles, (3) in cases of L(t) plots with initial convex curvature, the data may be
described by the unified relation with q >1 (i.e. when nuclei are formed
progressively) and/or by power-law relation, and (4) in some cases two citation
regions of an L(t) plots follow different nucleation mechanisms or the same
mechanism with different values of the parameters of its equation. (C) 2015

ID SOCIETAL IMPACT; ADJUSTED PREDICTIONS
AB The increased interest in an impact measurement of research on other areas of
the society than research has led in scientometrics to an investigation of
altmetrics. Particular attention is paid here to a targeted broad impact
measurement: The aim is to discover the impact which a particular publication set
has on specific user groups (outside research) by using altmetrics. This study used
the Mendeley application programming interface (API) to download the Mendeley
counts (broken down by different user types of publications in Mendeley) for a
comprehensive F1000Prime data set. F1000Prime is a post-publication peer review
system for papers from the biomedical area. As the F1000 papers are provided with
tags from experts in this area (Faculty members) which can characterise a paper
more exactly (such as "good for teaching" or "new finding"), the interest of
different user groups in specifically tagged papers could be investigated. This
study's evaluation of the variously tagged F1000 papers provided interesting
insights into the use of research papers by different user groups. The most
interesting tag for altmetrics research is "good for teaching". This applies to
papers which are well written and provide an overview of a topic. Papers with this
tag can be expected to arouse interest among people who are hardly or not at all
involved in research. The results of the regression models in this study do in fact
show that lecturers, researchers at a non-academic institution, and others (such as
librarians) have a special interest in this kind of papers. In the case of a key
article in a field, or a particularly well written article that provides a good
overview of a topic, then it will tend to be better received by people which are
not particularly related to academic research. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper analysed the citations of patents to science- and non-science-based
references as an agency of the linkage between technology and science. A review of
the literature identified a variety of techniques of measuring science linkage (SL)
with various results. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the differences
between science-based SL and nonscience-based linkage (NSL). Patent data were
collected from the United States Patent and Trademark Office database for the past
two decades. Results showed a phenomenon of rapidly growing NSL of patents at
different levels of technological fields and firms. In addition, field- and firm-
specific differences in the linkages between science and technology were
identified. This study analysed various types of SL performances of the top 20
firms in the Computers and Communications field and found that science-technology
linkages were stronger in Lucent, Mitsubishi and Microsoft. It is worth noting that
Texas Instruments (TI) was ranked thirteenth in science-based SL but third in
Relative SL Ratio. Based on the Relative SL Ratio, TI's science-based SL was much
higher than its NSL. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The purpose of the study is to compare the performance of count regression
models to those of linear and lognormal regression models in modelling count
response variables in informetric studies. Identified count response variables in
informetric studies include the number of authors, the number of references, the
number of views, the number of downloads, and the number of citations received by
an article. Also of a count nature are the number of links from and to a website.
Data were collected from the United States Patent and Trademark Office
(www.usptagov), an open access journal (wwwinformationr.netiirJ), Web of Science,
and Maclean's magazine. The datasets were then used to compare the performance of
linear and lognormal regression models with those of Poisson, negative binomial,
and generalized Poisson regression models. It was found that due to overdispersion
in most response variables, the negative binomial regression model often seems to
be more appropriate for informetric datasets than the Poisson and generalized
Poisson regression models. Also, the regression analyses showed that linear
regression model predicted some negative values for five of the nine response
variables modelled, and for all the response variables, it performed worse than
both the negative binomial and lognormal regression models when either Akaike's
Information Criterion (AIC) or Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) was used as the
measure of goodness of fit statistics. The negative binomial regression model
performed significantly better than the lognormal regression model for four of the
response variables while the lognormal regression model performed significantly
better than the negative binomial regression model for two of the response
variables but there was no significant difference in the performance of the two
models for the remaining three response variables. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Assessing the research performance of multi-disciplinary institutions, where
scientists belong to many fields, requires that the evaluators plan how to
aggregate the performance measures of the various fields. Two methods of
aggregation are possible. These are based on: (a) the performance of the individual
scientists or (b) the performance of the scientific fields present in the
institution. The appropriate choice depends on the evaluation context and the
objectives for the particular measure. The two methods bring about differences in
both the performance scores and rankings. We quantify these differences through
observation of the 2008-2012 scientific production of the entire research staff
employed in the hard sciences in Italian universities (over 35,000 professors).
Evaluators preparing an exercise must comprehend the differences illustrated, in
order to correctly select the methodologies that will achieve the evaluation
objectives. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Although various citation-based indicators are commonly used to help research
evaluations, there are ongoing controversies about their value. In response, they
are often correlated with quality ratings or with other quantitative indicators in
order to partly assess their validity. When correlations are calculated for sets of
publications from multiple disciplines or years, however, the magnitude of the
correlation coefficient may be reduced, masking the strength of the underlying
correlation. This article uses simulations to systematically investigate the extent
to which mixing years or disciplines reduces correlations. The results show that
mixing two sets of articles with different correlation strengths can reduce the
correlation for the combined set to substantially below the average of the two.
Moreover, even mixing two sets of articles with the same correlation strength but
different mean citation counts can substantially reduce the correlation for the
combined set. The extent of the reduction in correlation also depends upon whether
the articles assessed have been pre-selected for being high quality and whether the
relationship between the quality ratings and citation counts is linear or
exponential. The results underline the importance of using homogeneous data sets
but also help to interpret correlation coefficients when this is impossible. (C)

AB Dyads of journals related by citations can agglomerate into specialties through
the mechanism of triadic closure. Using the Journal Citation Reports 2011, 2012,
and 2013, we analyze triad formation as indicators of integration (specialty
growth) and disintegration (restructuring). The strongest integration is found
among the large journals that report on studies in different scientific
specialties, such as PLoS ONE, Nature Communications, Nature, and Science. This
tendency toward large-scale integration has not yet stabilized. Using the Islands
algorithm, we also distinguish 51 local maxima of integration. We zoom into the
cited articles that carry the integration for: (i) a new development within high-
energy physics and (ii) an emerging interface between the journals Applied
Mathematical Modeling and the International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing
Technology. In the first case, integration is brought about by a specific
communication reaching across specialty boundaries, whereas in the second, the dyad
of journals indicates an emerging interface between specialties. These results
suggest that integration picks up substantive developments at the specialty level.
An advantage of the bottom-up method is that no ex ante classification of journals
is assumed in the dynamic analysis. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

paper probes the patterns and dynamics of China's social science research via
bibliometric analyses. Our research indicates that despite the national orientation
of social science research and the linguistic obstacle of publishing for an
international audience, China's publications in the SSCI dataset have been rising
in terms of volume, world share, and global ranking. But China is still not yet a
major player in the arena of social sciences, as is evidenced by the number of
Chinese journals indexed in SSCI and the lack of Olympic players. Team research
features China's international publishing in social science, but the research
outputs are highly unbalanced at regional and institutional levels. (C) 2015

AB In recent years, the Web ofScience Core Collection and Scopus databases have
become primary sources for conducting studies that evaluate scientific
investigations. Such studies require that duplicate records be excluded to avoid
errors of overrepresentation. In this line, we identify duplicate records in Scopus
and examine their origins. Identifying journals with duplicate records in Scopus,
selecting and downloading bibliographic journal records, and identifying and
analyzing the duplicate records is the methodology adopted. Duplicate records are
found when articles published in a journal are incorrectly mapped by Scopus to this
journal and to a different journal from the same publisher and when there are
journal title changes, orthographic differences in the presentation of a journal
name, and journal name variants. In these last three cases, one bibliographic
record of each duplicate is mapped to Medline coverage of Scopus. Consequently, the
identified duplicates and the significant differences in the number of citations
received in duplicate articles may influence bibliometric studies. Thus, there is a
need for rigorous quality control guidelines to govern database managers and
editors to prevent the creation of duplicates. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB A frequently used measure of scientific (or research) collaboration is co-
authorship in scholarly publications. Less frequently used are joint grant
proposals and patents. Many scholars believe that the use of co-authorship as the
sole measure of research collaboration is insufficient because collaboration
between researchers might not result in co-authorship. Collaborations involve
informal communication (i.e., conversational exchange) between researchers. Using
self-reports from 100 tenured/tenure-track faculty in the College of Engineering at
the University of South Florida, researchers' networks are constructed from their
communication relationships and also from collaborations in three areas: joint
publications, joint grant proposals, and joint patents. The data collection: (1)
covers both researchers' in-progress and completed collaborative outputs, (2)
yields a rating from the researchers on the importance of a relationship to them
and (3) obtains multiple types of relationship ties between researchers allowing
for the comparison of multiple networks. Exponential random graph models (ERGMs)
results show that the more communication researchers have the more likely they
produce collaborative outputs. Furthermore, we find that joint grant proposals tend
to have mixed gender teams and that researchers of the same race are more likely to
publish together, but those demographic attributes have no additional explanatory
power regarding joint patents. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We studied the factors ( recent and older journals, publication types,
electronic or print form, open or subscription access, funding, affiliation,
language and home country of publisher) that contributed to the growth of
literature in Biomedical and Life Sciences as reflected in PubMed in the period
2004-2013. Only records indexed as journal articles were studied. 7364,633 journal
articles were added in PubMed between 2004 and 2013 (48.9% increase from 2003).
Recently launched journals showed the greater increase in published articles, but
older journals contributed the greater number of articles. The observed growth was
mainly attributed to articles to which no other PubMed publication type was
assigned. Articles available in both print and electronic form increased
substantially (61.1%). Both open (80.8%) and subscription access (54.7%) articles
increased significantly. Funding from nonUS government sources also contributed
significantly (74.5%). Asian (114%) and European (34.9%) first author affiliation
increased at a higher rate than American publications (7.9%). English remained the
predominant language of publications. USA- and England-based organizations
published a gradually increasing body of literature. Open access, non-US government
funding and Asian origin of the first author were the factors contributing to
literature growth as depicted in PubMed. A better assignment of publication types
is required. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID TECHNOLOGY
AB Decision makers relying on web search engines in concept mapping for decision
support are confronted with limitations inherent in similarity measures of
relatedness proximity between concept pairs. To cope with this challenge, this
paper presents research model for augmenting concept maps on the basis of a novel
method of co-word analysis that utilizes webometrics web counts for improving
similarity measures. Technology assessment serves as a use case to demonstrate and
validate our approach for a spectrum of information technologies. Results show that
the yielded technology assessments are highly correlated with subjective expert
assessments (n = 136; r > 0.879), suggesting that it is safe to generalize the
research model to other applications. The contribution of this work is emphasized
by the current growing attention to big data. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB An elite segment of the academic output gap between Denmark and Norway was
examined using harmonic estimates of publication credit for contributions to
Science and Nature in 2012 and 2013. Denmark still leads but the gap narrowed in
2013 as Norway's credit increased 58%, while Denmark's credit increased only 5.4%,
even though Norway had 36% fewer, and Denmark 40% more, coauthor contributions than
in 2012. Concurrently, the credit produced by the least productive half of the
contributions rose tenfold from 0.9% to 10.1% for Norway, but dropped from 7.2% to
5.7% for Denmark. Overall, contributory inequality as measured by the Gini
coefficient, fell from 0.78 to 0.51 for Norway, but rose from 0.63 to 0.68 for
Denmark. Neither gap narrowing nor the positive association between reduced
contributory inequality and increased credit were detected by conventional metrics.
Conventional metrics are confounded by equalizing bias (EqB) which favours small
contributors at the expense of large contributors, and which carries an element of
reverse meritocracy and systemic injustice into bibliometric performance
assessment. EqB was corrected by using all relevant byline information from every
coauthored publication in the source data. This approach demonstrates the
feasibility of using EqB-corrected publication credit in gap assessment at the
national level. (C) 2015 The Author. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB A fundamental problem in citation analysis is the prediction of the long-term
citation impact of recent publications. We propose a model to predict a probability
distribution for the future number of citations of a publication. Two predictors
are used: the impact factor of the journal in which a publication has appeared and
the number of citations a publication has received one year after its appearance.
The proposed model is based on quantile regression. We employ the model to predict
the future number of citations of a large set of publications in the field of
physics. Our analysis shows that both predictors (i.e., impact factor and early
citations) contribute to the accurate prediction of long-term citation impact. We
also analytically study the behavior of the quantile regression coefficients for
high quantiles of the distribution of citations. This is done by linking the
quantile regression approach to a quantile estimation technique from extreme value
theory. Our work provides insight into the influence of the impact factor and early
citations on the long-term citation impact of a publication, and it takes a step
toward a methodology that can be used to assess research institutions based on
their most recently published work. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DT Article
AB The production and impact of male and female authors in Poland over the period
1975-2014 have been studied. The method is based on a special property of Polish
last names, namely several popular last names have separate masculine (-ski, -cki)
and feminine (-ska, -cka) forms. In this respect Polish is different from most
other languages, in which the last name has only one form independent of the
gender. A set of 56 634 unique publications of authors bearing one of 26 most
popular -ski or -cki names was analyzed. The male dominance was observed over the
entire studied period, yet it became systematically less significant over the
period 1995-2014, especially in terms of production. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB This paper compares Fractional, Geometric, Arithmetic, Harmonic, and Network-
Based schemes for allocating coauthorship credits. Each scheme is operationalized
to be flexible in producing credit distribution by changing parameters, and to
incorporate a special situation where the first and corresponding authors are
assigned equal credits. For testing each scheme, empirical datasets from economics,
marketing, psychology, chemistry, and medicine, were collected and errors in how
each scheme approximates empirical data was measured. Results show that Harmonic
scheme performs best overall, contrary to some claims of preceding studies in
support of Harmonic or Network-Based models. The performance of a scheme, however,
seems to heavily depend on empirical datasets and flexibility of the scheme, not on
its innate feature. This study suggests that the comparison of coauthorship credit
allocation schemes should be taken with care. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This study aims to explore the relationship between science and technology via
analyzing cross citations between papers and patents in fuel cells. To calculate
cross citation indicators, papers were retrieved from the WOS database and patent
data from the USPTO during the period between 1991 and 2010, resulting in a total
of 20,758 papers and 8112 patents. This study shows that there is a gradually
increasing convergence between science and technology, particularly of science
linkage in recent years. Papers citing patents are more time-sensitive than patents
citing papers. Academic institutions are more likely to cite papers and patents
published by other academic institutions. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This study reveals the roles of three tie-generative mechanisms, namely,
assortative mixing, preferential attachment, and triadic closure, in forming
citation links in journals through the exponential random graph modeling approach.
The study also adopts a longitudinal design to examine how the roles of the three
mechanisms evolve over time. The data involve citation exchanges in Internet
research among 680 journals in 12 subject areas from 2000 to 2013. Assortative
mixing by discipline and publication foci is a significant tie-generative mechanism
in journal citation networks. The magnitude of as sortative mixing by discipline
remains stable over time, whereas that by publication foci declines over time.
Journals in Internet research demonstrate an increasing preference for influential
journals to form citation links over time. The indegree of journals does not exert
a significant impact on citation link formation among journals, whereas the
outdegree of journals imposes a significantly negative impact on citation link
formation among journals. Triadic closure is an important force that facilitates
the formation of citation links among journals. The findings of this study improve
our knowledge of the organizing principles that underlie journal citation networks
and advance our understanding of the production process of scientific knowledge in
Internet research. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ECONOMICS
AB Journal impact factors (JIFs) are widely used and promoted but have important
limitations. In particular, JIFs can be unduly influenced by individual highly
cited articles and hence are inherently unstable. A logical way to reduce the
impact of individual high citation counts is to use the geometric mean rather than
the standard mean in JIF calculations. Based upon journal rankings 2004-2014 in 50
sub-categories within 5 broad categories, this study shows that journal rankings
based on JIF variants tend to be more stable over time if the geometric mean is
used rather than the standard mean. The same is true for JIF variants using
Mendeley reader counts instead of citation counts. Thus, although the difference is
not large, the geometric mean is recommended instead of the arithmetic mean for
future JIF calculations. In addition, Mendeley readership-based JIF variants are as
stable as those using Scopus citations, confirming the value of Mendeley readership
as an academic impact indicator. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Classically, unsupervised machine learning techniques are applied on data sets
with fixed number of attributes ( variables). However, many problems encountered in
the field of informetrics face us with the need to extend these kinds of methods in
a way such that they may be computed over a set of nonincreasingly ordered vectors
of unequal lengths. Thus, in this paper, some new dissimilarity measures (metrics)
are introduced and studied. Owing to that we may use, e.g. hierarchical clustering
algorithms in order to determine an input data set's partition consisting of sets
of producers that are homogeneous not only with respect to the quality of
information resources, but also their quantity. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

TI Quantitative analysis of the Italian National Scientific Qualification
LA English
DT Article
DE National Scientific Qualification; ASN; Research evaluation;
ID H-INDEX
AB The Italian National Scientific Qualification (ASN) was introduced in 2010 as
part of a major reform of the national university system. Under the new regulation,
the scientific qualification for a specific role (associate or full professor) and
field of study is required to apply for a permanent professor position. The ASN is
peculiar since it makes use of bibliometric indicators with associated thresholds
as one of the parameters used to assess applicants. The first round of the ASN
received 59,149 applications, and the results have been made publicly available for
a short period of time, including the values of the quantitative indicators for
each applicant. The availability of this wealth of information provides an
opportunity to draw a fairly detailed picture of a nation-wide evaluation exercise,
and to study the impact of the bibliometric indicators on the qualification
results. In this paper, we provide a first account of the Italian National
Scientific Qualification from a quantitative point of view. We show that
significant differences exist among scientific disciplines, in particular with
respect to the fraction of qualified applicants, that cannot be easily explained.
Furthermore, we describe some issues related to the definition and use of the
bibliometric indicators and the corresponding thresholds. Our analysis aims at
drawing attention to potential problems that should be addressed by decision-makers
in future rounds of the ASN. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study investigates how scientific performance in terms of publication rate
is influenced by the gender, age and academic position of the researchers. Previous
studies have shown that these factors are important variables when analysing
scientific productivity at the individual level. What is new with our approach is
that we have been able to identify the relative importance of the different factors
based on regression analyses (OLS) of each major academic field. The study,
involving almost 12,400 Norwegian university researchers, shows that academic
position is more important than age and gender. In the fields analysed, the
regression model can explain 13.5-19 per cent of the variance in the publication
output at the levels of individuals. This also means that most of the variance in
publication rate is due to other factors. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by

AB The basic indicators of a researcher's productivity and impact are still the
number of publications and their citation counts. These metrics are clear,
straightforward, and easy to obtain. When a ranking of scholars is needed, for
instance in grant, award, or promotion procedures, their use is the fastest and
cheapest way of prioritizing some scientists over others. However, due to their
nature, there is a danger of oversimplifying scientific achievements. Therefore,
many other indicators have been proposed including the usage of the PageRank
algorithm known for the ranking of webpages and its modifications suited to
citation networks. Nevertheless, this recursive method is computationally expensive
and even if it has the advantage of favouring prestige over popularity, its
application should be well justified, particularly when compared to the standard
citation counts. In this study, we analyze three large datasets of computer science
papers in the categories of artificial intelligence, software engineering, and
theory and methods and apply 12 different ranking methods to the citation networks
of authors. We compare the resulting rankings with selfcompiled lists of
outstanding researchers selected as frequent editorial board members of prestigious
journals in the field and conclude that there is no evidence of PageRank-based
methods outperforming simple citation counts. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The first significant digit patterns arising from a mixture of uniform
distributions with a random upper bound are revisited. A closed-form formula for
its first significant digit distribution (FSD) is obtained. The one-parameter model
of Rodriguez is recovered for an extended truncated Pareto mixing distribution.
Considering additionally the truncated Erlang, gamma and Burr mixing distributions,
and the generalized Benford law, for which another probabilistic derivation is
offered, we study the fitting capabilities of the FSD's for various Benford like
data sets from scientific research. Based on the results, we propose the general
use of a fine structure index for Benford's law in case the data is well fitted by
the truncated Erlang member of the uniform random upper bound family of FSD's. (C)

AB There are two versions in the literature of counting co-author pairs. Whereas
the first version leads to a two-dimensional (2-D) power function distribution; the
other version shows three-dimensional (3-D) graphs, totally rotatable around and
their shapes are visible in space from all possible points of view. As a result,
these new 3-D computer graphs, called "Social Gestalts" deliver more comprehensive
information about social network structures than simple 2-D power function
distributions. The mathematical model of Social Gestalts and the corresponding
methods for the 3-D visualization and animation of collaboration networks are
presented in Part I of this paper. Fundamental findings in psychology/sociology and
physics are used as a basis for the development of this model.
The application of these new methods to male and to female networks is shown in
Part II. After regression analysis the visualized Social Gestalts are rather
identical with the corresponding empirical distributions (R-2 >0.99). The
structures of female co-authorship networks differ markedly from the structures of
the male co-authorship networks. For female co-author pairs' networks, accentuation
of productivity dissimilarities of the pairs is becoming visible but on the
contrary, for male co-author pairs' networks, accentuation of productivity
similarities of the pairs is expressed. (c) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier

SCIENTIFIC IMPACT; DISTRIBUTIONS; COAUTHORS
AB Nearly a decade ago, the science community was introduced to the h-index, a
proposed statistical measure of the collective impact of the publications of any
individual researcher. Of course, any method of reducing a complex data set to a
single number will necessarily have certain limitations and introduce certain
biases. However, in this paper we point out that the definition of the h-index
actually suffers from something far deeper: a hidden mathematical incompleteness
intrinsic to its definition. In particular, we point out that one critical step
within the definition of h has been missed until now, resulting in an index which
only achieves its stated objectives under certain rather limited circumstances. For
example, this incompleteness explains why the h-index ultimately has more utility
in certain scientific subfields than others. In this paper, we expose the origin of
this incompleteness and then also propose a method of completing the definition of
h in a way which remains close to its original guiding principle. As a result, our
"completed" h not only reduces to the usual h in cases where the h-index already
achieves its objectives, but also extends the validity of the h-index into
situations where it currently does not. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Journal impact factor; Citations; References; Journal distribution
ID SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS; CITATION ANALYSIS; NORMALIZATION; UNIVERSALITY;

AB In general, scientometrics studies tend to focus on citations received from
journals (incoming citations) and usually neglect references to journals (outgoing
citations). The aim of this study is to suggest a new approach to the journal
impact factor on a wider scale, i.e., from the viewpoint of citing journals. I
studied how citations (references) given by JCR journals contribute to the 2-year
and 5-year journal impact factors (JIF). To do so, data were obtained from the 2011
edition of JCR (Science Edition) available for universities in Spain, and the
citing journal matrix for each journal was used. This matrix records the number of
times articles published in other journals (cited journals) were cited in a given
journal (citing journal) in 2011. The results showed that a set of 50 journals
produced about 15% of all references that contributed to the 2-year JIF. Similarly,
a set of 50 journals produced about 13% of all references that contributed to the
5-year JIF. A Bradford-like plot was obtained by plotting the cumulative number of
references that contributed to the 2-year and 5-year JIF against the cumulative
number of citing journals. The distribution of journals according to the number and
percentage of references they contributed to the 2-year and 5-year JIF showed
peaks. A rank-order distribution of references that contributed to the 2-year and 5
year JIF was obtained with a previously described empirical two-exponent equation.
Based on the maximum contribution to the 2-year JIF of different 2-year rolling
reference windows, the second rolling window (references to articles published 2
and 3 years before 2011) made the greatest contribution to impact in 41% of
journals. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Evaluative bibliometrics compare the citation impact of researchers, research
groups and institutions with each other across time scales and disciplines. Both
factors, discipline and period - have an influence on the citation count which is
independent of the quality of the publication. Normalizing the citation impact of
papers for these two factors started in the mid-1980s. Since then, a range of
different methods have been presented for producing normalized citation impact
scores. The current study uses a data set of over 50,000 records to test which of
the methods so far presented correlate better with the assessment of papers by
peers. The peer assessments come from F1000Prime - a post-publication peer review
system of the biomedical literature. Of the normalized indicators, the current
study involves not only cited-side indicators, such as the mean normalized citation
score, but also citing-side indicators. As the results show, the correlations of
the indicators with the peer assessments all turn out to be very similar. Since
F1000 focuses on biomedicine, it is important that the results of this study are
validated by other studies based on datasets from other disciplines or (ideally)
based on multi-disciplinary datasets. (c) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper presents a database link network to measure the impact of databases
on biological research. To this end, we used the 20,861 full-text articles from
PubMed Central in the field of Bioinformatics. We then extracted databases from the
methodology sections of these articles and their references. The list of databases
was built with The 2013 Nucleic Acids Research Molecular Biology Database
Collection (available online), which includes 1512 databases. The database link
network was constructed from sets of pairs of databases mentioned in the
methodology sections of full-text PubMed Central articles. The edges of the
database link network represent the link relationships between two databases. The
weight of each edge is determined either by the link frequency of the two databases
(i.e., in the link-weighted database link network) or the topic similarity between
two databases (i.e., in the similarity-weighted database link network). With the
database link network, we analyzed the topological structure and main paths of the
database link network to trace the usage, connection, and evolution of databases.
We also conducted content analysis by comparing content similarities among the
papers citing databases. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This article examines how different factors influence the number of times
articles in the five most recognized transportation journals are cited. The effects
of most of the explanatory variables indicating the characteristics of articles,
authors and journals correspond with earlier studies of citation counts. Special
focus in this study is placed on estimating the relationship between researchers'
human capital or skills and their experience. For the purpose of this study, human
capital is defined as a scientist's ability to conduct research at the frontier of
his or her discipline and is measured by how frequently his or her research is
cited. Experience is measured by counting the number of their previous scientific
articles. Using negative binomial regression, we find that experience offers a
statistically significant positive effect on the human capital of scientists.
However, this effect diminishes rapidly with the level of experience. This suggests
that young researchers relatively quickly learn the skills and gain the knowledge
necessary to produce high-quality research. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The literature on gender differences in research performance seems to suggest a
gap between men and women, where the former outperform the latter. Whether one
agrees with the different factors proposed to explain the phenomenon, it is
worthwhile to verify if comparing the performance within each gender, rather than
without distinction, gives significantly different ranking lists. If there were
some structural factor that determined a penalty in performance of female
researchers compared to their male peers, then under conditions of equal capacities
of men and women, any comparative evaluations of individual performance that fail
to account for gender differences would lead to distortion of the judgments in
favor of men. In this work we measure the extent of differences in rank between the
two methods of comparing performance in each field of the hard sciences: for
professors in the Italian university system, we compare the distributions of
research performance for men and women and subsequently the ranking lists with and
without distinction by gender. The results are of interest for the optimization of
efficient selection in formulation of recruitment, career advancement and incentive
schemes. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study explores the connections between social and usage metrics
(altmetrics) and bibliometric indicators at the author level. It studies to what
extent these indicators, gained from academic sites, can provide a proxy for
research impact. Close to 10,000 author profiles belonging to the Spanish National
Research Council were extracted from the principal scholarly social sites:
ResearchGate, Academia.edu and Mendeley and academic search engines: Microsoft
Academic Search and Google Scholar Citations. Results describe little overlapping
between sites because most of the researchers only manage one profile (72%).
Correlations point out that there is scant relationship between altmetric and
bibliometric indicators at author level. This is due to the almetric ones are site-
dependent, while the bibliometric ones are more stable across web sites. It is
concluded that altmetrics could reflect an alternative dimension of the research
performance, close, perhaps, to science popularization and networking abilities,
but far from citation impact. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this article we study three types of uncitedness in Library and Information
Science journals: uncitedness for articles, authors and topics. One important
aspect in this study is giving accurate definitions of the indicators for measuring
uncited papers, uncited authors and uncited topics. It is found that for the period
1991-2010 ratios of uncited papers fluctuate within the interval [0,0.1]. This
ratio is relatively stable and not very high. Comparison of average number of
pages, average number of references, average number of authors per paper and
percentage of single-authored papers between cited and uncited papers shows that no
matter the journal, the first three indicators' values for uncited papers are
lower, while the values of the fourth indicator are higher, than the corresponding
values for cited papers. The fact that almost all uncited authors in a journal
published only one paper in this journal illustrates that a journal's uncited
authors are the least productive authors in this journal. Yet, productive and
highly cited authors also publish uncited papers. As to why some topics fall into
the group of uncited topics, the hypothesis is that the combination of unfamiliar
keywords forms an unfamiliar topic, a topic authors have elected not to study
further. Another assumption is that some uncited topics fall outside the field of
Library and Information Science. Retrieval results in the Web of Science for a set
of uncited keywords and keyword combinations support this assumption. (C) 2014

AB This work aims at establishing the task-force involved in scientific production
at the institutional or national level, globally or per area or sub-area of
knowledge. In the proposed system, the estimated task-force is further divided into
core (permanent members of the institution(s)) and collaborators (more mobile
members), and allows normalization of scientific production.
Research groups/institutions/countries of different sizes/scientific areas can,
thus, be directly compared and the time evolution of these groups inspected.
Results are presented for the characterization of four universities (from Portugal,
Sweden and USA) in the 2008-2012 period, for the research area of Chemistry. It is
shown that it is possible not only to estimate the task-force, but also to derive
new, relevant indicators for the set under analysis. Aspects pertaining to
collaboration fluxes are also assessed. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper analyzes the diverse scientific careers of researchers in order to
understand the key factors that could lead to a successful career. Essentially, we
intend to answer some specific questions pertaining to a researcher's scientific
career - What are the local and the global dynamics regulating a researcher's
decision to select a new field of research at different points of her entire
career? What are the suitable quantitative indicators to measure the diversity of a
researcher's scientific career? We propose two entropy-based metrics to measure a
researcher's choice of research topics. Experiments with large computer science
bibliographic dataset reveal that there is a strong correlation between the
diversity of the career of a researcher and her success in scientific research in
terms of the number of citations. We observe that while most of the researchers are
biased toward either adopting diverse research fields or concentrating on very few
fields, a majority of the prominent researchers tend to follow a typical "scatter-
gather" policy - although their entire careers are immensely diverse with different
types of fields selected at different time periods, they remain focused primarily
in at most one or two fields at any particular time point of their career. Finally,
we propose a stochastic model which, quite accurately, mimics the notion of field
selection process observed in the real publication dataset. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

DT Article
DE Gold open access ranking; Open access impact analysis; SJR; Open access
journals
ID IMPACT FACTOR; CITATION IMPACT; ARTICLES
AB Purpose: The goal is to identify the features of top-rated gold open access (OA)
journals by testing seven main variables: languages, countries, years of activity
and years in the DOAJ repository, publication fee, the field of study, whether the
journal has been launched as OA or converted, and the type of publisher.
Sample: A sample of 1910 gold OA journals has been obtained by combining Scopus
SJR 2012, the DOAJ, and data provided by previous studies (Solomon, 2013).
Method: We have divided the SJR index into quartiles for all journals' subject
areas. First, we show descriptive statistics by combining quartiles based on their
features. Then, after having converted the quartiles into a dummy variable, we test
it as a dependent variable in a binary logistic regression.
Contribute: This work contributes empirically to better understanding the gold
OA efficacy of data analysis, which may be helpful in improving journals' rankings
in the areas where this is still a struggle.
Findings: Significant results have been found for all variables, except for the
types of publishers, and for born or converted journals. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB By empirical demonstration, this study extends the assessments of BRICS
countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) in performing science and
technology in previous studies by exploring their cumulative patterns of science
and technology (proxied by publications and patents respectively). Projections of
cumulative production in science and technology are made using logistic growth
function. Our analyses show that - though having different growth trajectories in
science production - the BRICS countries exhibit similar patterns in pursuing
technology. This embodies the strong commitment of BRICS to improve their
technological capabilities in the process of industrial development. Inspired by
the Relative Impact Index (RII) proposed by Nesta and Patel, we propose the
Relative Science Impact Index (RSII) to evaluate the relative impact of science and
technology on the process of technological catching-up in emerging economies and
examine the co-evolution between science-based patents and patent citations. Our
correlation analysis between forward citation and RSII marks some distinctive
pursuits of BRICS countries in science-based patenting activities. (C) 2014

TI Field-normalized citation impact indicators using algorithmically
constructed classification systems of science

AB We study the problem of normalizing citation impact indicators for differences
in citation practices across scientific fields. Normalization of citation impact
indicators is usually done based on a field classification system. In practice, the
Web of Science journal subject categories are often used for this purpose. However,
many of these subject categories have a quite broad scope and are not sufficiently
homogeneous in terms of citation practices. As an alternative, we propose to work
with algorithmically constructed classification systems. We construct these
classification systems by performing a large-scale clustering of publications based
on their citation relations. In our analysis, 12 classification systems are
constructed, each at a different granularity level. The number of fields in these
systems ranges from 390 to 73,205 in granularity levels 1-12. This contrasts with
the 236 subject categories in the WoS classification system. Based on an
investigation of some key characteristics of the 12 classification systems, we
argue that working with a few thousand fields may be an optimal choice. We then
study the effect of the choice of a classification system on the citation impact of
the 500 universities included in the 2013 edition of the CWTS Leiden Ranking. We
consider both the MNCS and the PPtop 10% indicator. Globally, for all the
universities taken together citation impact indicators generally turn out to be
relatively insensitive to the choice of a classification system. Nevertheless, for
individual universities, we sometimes observe substantial differences between
indicators normalized based on the journal subject categories and indicators
normalized based on an appropriately chosen algorithmically constructed
classification system. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB CiteSpace is a visual document analysis software, by which performances and
trends of certain disciplines can be displayed for a given period. Moreover, the
evolution of a frontier research can be explored by such software as well. This
research focuses on the visualization and quantitative study in bibliographic
databases by taking the university-industry collaboration studies as an example.
Using the Web of Science (WOS), 587 publications and over 30,000 references were
selected for analysis, which produced the following results: (1) Our method can
clearly reveal the key elements of certain disciplines, such as the largest share
of publications, the most frequently cited authors and journals in the university-
industry cooperation research field; (2) The relationships among the frequently
cited authors, references, journals and keywords can be explained visually in the
university-industry cooperation research field; (3) Of special note is that the
potential problems and evolutionary trends of certain research fields such as
university-industry cooperation can also be ascertained via our method; (4) In
general, according to the case study, our visualization and quantitative method
evolved a new research framework to evaluate the performance of some research
areas. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Research networks play a crucial role in the production of new knowledge since
collaboration contributes to determine the cognitive and social structure of
scientific fields and has a positive influence on research. This paper analyses the
structure of co-authorship networks in three different fields (Nanoscience,
Pharmacology and Statistics) in Spain over a three-year period (2006-2008) and
explores the relationship between the research performance of scientists and their
position in co-authorship networks. A denser co-authorship network is found in the
two experimental fields than in Statistics, where the network is of a less
connected and more fragmented nature. Using the g-index as a proxy for individual
research performance, a Poisson regression model is used to explore how performance
is related to different co-authorship network measures and to disclose interfield
differences. The number of co-authors (degree centrality) and the strength of links
show a positive relationship with the g-index in the three fields. Local cohesion
presents a negative relationship with the g-index in the two experimental fields,
where open networks and the diversity of co-authors seem to be beneficial. No clear
advantages from intermediary positions (high betweenness) or from being linked to
well-connected authors (high eigenvector) can be inferred from this analysis. In
terms of g-index, the benefits derived by authors from their position in co-
authorship networks are larger in the two experimental fields than in the
theoretical one. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Lotkaian informetrics is the framework most often used to study statistical
distributions in the production and usage of information. Although Lotkaian
distributions are traditionally used to characterize the Information Production
Process (IPP), we have shown in a previous article that the IPP can successfully be
studied using the effort function - the latter having been initially introduced to
define the Exponential Informetric Process (EIP). These themes continue to be
developed in this article, in which we present a necessary and sufficient condition
for the existence of the EIP. Our current approach is similar to the one used to
study IPPs. Inverse power and exponential distributions serve to illustrate the
results obtained in the context of an EIP. Numerical examples are discussed. (C)

AB In this paper, we analyze the adequacy and applicability of readership
statistics recorded in social reference management systems for creating knowledge
domain visualizations. First, we investigate the distribution of subject areas in
user libraries of educational technology researchers on Mendeley. The results show
that around 69% of the publications in an average user library can be attributed to
a single subject area. Then, we use co-readership patterns to map the field of
educational technology. The resulting visualization prototype, based on the most
read publications in this field on Mendeley, reveals 13 topic areas of educational
technology research. The visualization is a recent representation of the field: 80%
of the publications included were published within ten years of data collection.
The characteristics of the readers, however, introduce certain biases to the
visualization. Knowledge domain visualizations based on readership statistics are
therefore multifaceted and timely, but it is important that the characteristics of
the underlying sample are made transparent. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Distributing scientific funding to the suitable universities and research fields
is very important to the innovation acceleration in science and technology. Using a
longitudinal panel dataset of the National Natural Science Foundation of China
(NSFC), the total 224,087 sponsored projects is utilized to investigate the
distributions of scientific funding across universities and research disciplines.
The inequality of funding distribution is studied through the investigation of Gini
coefficient, and its fundamental rules are discovered through the technique of
distribution fitting. It is found that the inequality of distributions of NSFC
funding across 1971 universities is decreasing, and the distribution of funding and
supported universities of 971 research fields follow Generalized Pareto
distribution and Geometric distribution function, respectively. This study is
dedicated to give an entire landscape to help make policy of distributing
scientific funding. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Science is increasingly produced in collaborative teams, but collaborative teams
in science are self-assembled and fluid. Such characteristics call for a network
approach to account for external activities responsible for team product but taking
place beyond closed team boundaries in the open network. Given such characteristics
of collaborative teams in science, we empirically test the interdependence between
collaborative teams in the same network. Specifically, using fixed effects Poisson
models and panel data of 1310 American scientists' life-time publication histories,
we demonstrate knowledge spillovers from new collaborators to other teams not
involving these new collaborators. Our findings have important implications for
studying the organization of science. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Author direct citation analysis (ADCA, also called inter-citation or cross
citation) is a new feasible and applicable technique for exploring knowledge
communication and discovering scientific structure. This study explored ADCA among
prolific, highly cited, and core authors in information science in China and around
the world. The results revealed the following. (1) The datasets in China and around
the world cover overlapping, but also unique topics. Research subjects on
information science around the world can be divided into three categories and 10
clusters; meanwhile, that in China can be divided into three categories and 9
clusters. Chinese scholars who are mostly involved in cross subjects and multi-
fields are not as specialized and profound as foreign scholars. An obvious
imbalance exists in the evolution of discipline structure around the world,
indicating the necessity of a synchronous promotion of research specialty and cross
comprehensiveness. Chinese scholars concentrate more on topics such as competitive
intelligence, information resource management, and information retrieval, and they
focus less on information security and user analysis. (2) Knowledge communication
between active authors is stronger than the knowledge flow from highly influential
authors to active authors around the world; meanwhile, Chinese researchers tend to
adopt the knowledge of authoritative literature. The knowledge flow through
bidirectional direct citation is related to mutual knowledge communication.
Authoritative scholars are produced when prolific authors cite highly cited
authors. The level of mutual recognition among Chinese scholars has not reached
that among foreign scholars; in the former, less bidirectional flow of knowledge is
involved, and unidirectional flow is limited to geographical proximity,
cooperation, or teacher-student relationship. (3) In contrast to traditional author
co-citation analysis (ACA), ADCA pays more attention to the mutual interaction
among currently active scholars and to mainly showing the current research focus.

ID AUTHOR NAME DISAMBIGUATION; SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATION; SCIENCE
AB This paper shows empirically how the choice of certain data pre-processing
methods for disambiguating author names affects our understanding of the structure
and evolution of co-publication networks. Thirty years of publication records from
125 Information Systems journals were obtained from DBLP. Author names in the data
were pre-processed via algorithmic disambiguation. We applied the commonly used
all-initials and first-initial based disambiguation methods to the data, generated
over-time networks with a yearly resolution, and calculated standard network
metrics on these graphs. Our results show that initial-based methods underestimate
the number of unique authors, average distance, and clustering coefficient, while
overestimating the number of edges, average degree, and ratios of the largest
components. These self-reinforcing growth and shrinkage mechanisms amplify over
time. This can lead to false findings about fundamental network characteristics
such as topology and reasoning about underlying social processes. It can also cause
erroneous predictions of trends in future network evolution and suggest unjustified
policies, interventions and funding decisions. The findings from this study suggest
that scholars need to be more attentive to data pre-processing when analyzing or
reusing bibliometric data. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We present CitNetExplorer, a new software tool for analyzing and visualizing
citation networks of scientific publications. CitNetExplorer can for instance be
used to study the development of a research field, to delineate the literature on a
research topic, and to support literature reviewing. We first introduce the main
concepts that need to be understood when working with CitNetExplorer. We then
demonstrate CitNetExplorer by using the tool to analyze the scientometric
literature and the literature on community detection in networks. Finally, we
discuss some technical details on the construction, visualization, and analysis of
citation networks in CitNetExplorer. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID CITATION DISTRIBUTIONS; UNIVERSALITY; NETWORKS; SCORES; IMPACT; WEB
AB The citations to a set of academic articles are typically unevenly shared, with
many articles attracting few citations and few attracting many. It is important to
know more precisely how citations are distributed in order to help statistical
analyses of citations, especially for sets of articles from a single discipline and
a small range of years, as normally used for research evaluation. This article fits
discrete versions of the power law, the lognormal distribution and the hooked power
law to 20 different Scopus categories, using citations to articles published in
2004 and ignoring uncited articles. The results show that, despite its popularity,
the power law is not a suitable model for collections of articles from a single
subject and year, even for the purpose of estimating the slope of the tail of the
citation data. Both the hooked power law and the lognormal distributions fit best
for some subjects but neither is a universal optimal choice and parameter estimates
for both seem to be unreliable. Hence only the hooked power law and discrete
lognormal distributions should be considered for subject-and-year-based citation
analysis in future and parameter estimates should always be interpreted cautiously.

AB A similarity comparison is made between 120 journals from five allied Web of
Science disciplines (Communication, Computer Science-Information Systems, Education
& Educational Research, Information Science & Library Science, Management) and a
more distant discipline (Geology) across three time periods using a novel method
called citing discipline analysis that relies on the frequency distribution of Web
of Science Research Areas for citing articles. Similarities among journals are
evaluated using multidimensional scaling with hierarchical cluster analysis and
Principal Component Analysis. The resulting visualizations and groupings reveal
clusters that align with the discipline assignments for the journals for four of
the six disciplines, but also greater overlaps among some journals for two of the
disciplines or categorizations that do not necessarily align with their assigned
disciplines. Some journals categorized into a single given discipline were found to
be more closely aligned with other disciplines and some journals assigned to
multiple disciplines more closely aligned with only one of the assigned
disciplines. The proposed method offers a complementary way to more traditional
methods such as journal co-citation analysis to compare journal similarity using
data that are readily available through Web of Science. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB International scientific collaboration has been the dominant driving force for
promoting scientific and technological advancement. However, current international
scientific collaboration analysis and evaluation mainly concentrate on the
exploration of international collaboration network; hence, an evaluation method of
international scientific collaboration is yet to be formed. In this paper, we take
the dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) as an empirical object and combine the
international collaboration network with geographic information, which we call the
International Collaboration Map, to display the international collaboration
situations among countries or regions worldwide (inter-country collaboration), the
collaborations among countries or regions within each continent (intra-continent
collaboration), and the collaborations among continents (inter-continent
collaboration) from different angles. Based on the thought of fractional count,
this study introduces the indicators of collaborative country rank, international
collaboration width, and international collaboration activity; the study employs
the International Collaboration Activity Index (ICAI) to comprehensively measure
the degree of countries or regions international collaboration at the country or
region level. It systematically evaluates the differences between the active degree
of relevant countries or regions in collaborative research. We use correlation
analysis among the five sub-criterions and verify the rationality of index
construction. K-means clustering analysis is undertaken among 84 countries or
regions in the DSSCs field. The results show the formation of three groups, each
with their unique international collaboration features. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All

HUMANITIES
AB Delayed recognition is a concept applied to articles that receive very few to no
citations for a certain period of time following publication, before becoming
actively cited. To determine whether such a time spent in relative obscurity had an
effect on subsequent citation patterns, we selected articles that received no
citations before the passage of ten full years since publication, investigated the
subsequent yearly citations received over a period of 37 years and compared them
with the citations received by a group of papers without such a latency period. Our
study finds that papers with delayed recognition do not exhibit the typical early
peak, then slow decline in citations, but that the vast majority enter decline
immediately after their first - and often only - citation. Middling papers'
citations remain stable over their lifetime, whereas the more highly cited papers,
some of which fall into the "sleeping beauty" subtype, show non-stop growth in
citations received. Finally, papers published in different disciplines exhibit
similar behavior and did not differ significantly. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All

LA English
DT Article
DE Matthew effect; Gibrat's law; Kolmogorov-Smirnov
ID CITIES; LAW
AB We apply the test of Ijiri and Simon (1974) to a large data set of authors in
economics. This test has been used by Tol (2009, 2013a) to identify a (within-
author) Matthew effect for authors based on citations. We show that the test is
quite sensitive to its underlying assumptions and identifies too often a potential
Matthew effect. We propose an alternative test based on the pure form of Gibrat's
law. It states that stochastic proportionate citation growth, i.e. independent of
its size, leads to a lognormal distribution. By using a one-sided Kolmogorov-
Smirnov test we test for deviations from the lognormal distribution which we
interpret as an indication of the Matthew effect. Using our large data set we also
explore potential empirical characteristics of economists with a Matthew effect.

AB Today, it is not clear how the impact of research on other areas of society than
science should be measured. While peer review and bibliometrics have become
standard methods for measuring the impact of research in science, there is not yet
an accepted framework within which to measure societal impact. Alternative metrics
(called altmetrics to distinguish them from bibliometrics) are considered an
interesting option for assessing the societal impact of research, as they offer new
ways to measure (public) engagement with research output. Altmetrics is a term to
describe web-based metrics for the impact of publications and other scholarly
material by using data from social media platforms (e. g. Twitter or Mendeley).
This overview of studies explores the potential of altmetrics for measuring
societal impact. It deals with the definition and classification of altmetrics.
Furthermore, their benefits and disadvantages for measuring impact are discussed.

AB It is well-known that the distribution of citations to articles in a journal is
skewed. We ask whether journal rankings based on the impact factor are robust with
respect to this fact. We exclude the most cited paper, the top 5 and 10 cited
papers for 100 economics journals and recalculate the impact factor. Afterwards we
compare the resulting rankings with the original ones from 2012. Our results show
that the rankings are relatively robust. This holds both for the 2-year and the 5-
year impact factor. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper examined the citation impact of Chinese- and English-language
articles in Chinese-English bilingual journals indexed by Scopus and Web of Science
(WoS). Two findings were obtained from comparative analysis: (1) Chinese-language
articles were not biased in citations compared with English-language articles,
since they received a large number of citations from Chinese scientists; (2) a
Chinese-language community was found in Scopus, in which Chinese-language articles
mainly received citations from Chinese-language articles, but it was not found in
WoS whose coverage of Chinese-language articles is only one-tenth of Scopus. The
findings suggest some implications for academic evaluation of journals including
Chinese-language articles in Scopus and WoS. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper exploits a unique 2003-2011 large dataset, indexed by Thomson
Reuters, consisting of 17.2 million disambiguated authors classified into 30 broad
scientific fields, as well as the 48.2 million articles resulting from a
multiplying strategy in which any article coauthored by two or more persons is
wholly assigned as many times as necessary to each of them. The dataset is
characterized by a large proportion of authors who have their oeuvre in several
fields. We measure individual productivity in two ways that are uncorrelated: as
the number of articles per person and as the mean citation per article per person
in the 2003-2011 period. We analyze the shape of the two types of individual
productivity distributions in each field using size-and scale-independent
indicators. To assess the skewness of productivity distributions we use a robust
index of skewness, as well as the Characteristic Scores and Scales approach. For
productivity inequality, we use the coefficient of variation. In each field, we
study two samples: the entire population, and what we call "successful authors",
namely, the subset of scientists whose productivity is above their field average.
The main result is that, in spite of wide differences in production and citation
practices across fields, the shape of field productivity distributions is very
similar across fields. The parallelism of the results for the population as a whole
and for the subset of successful authors, when productivity is measured as mean
citation per article per person, reveals the fractal nature of the skewness of
scientific productivity in this case. These results are essentially maintained when
any article co-authored by two or more persons is fractionally assigned to each of
them. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID ADJUSTED PREDICTIONS
AB Can altmetric data be validly used for the measurement of societal impact? The
current study seeks to answer this question with a comprehensive dataset (about
100,000 records) from very disparate sources (F1000, Altmetric, and an in-house
database based on Web of Science). In the F1000 peer review system, experts attach
particular tags to scientific papers which indicate whether a paper could be of
interest for science or rather for other segments of society. The results show that
papers with the tag "good for teaching" do achieve higher altmetric counts than
papers without this tag - if the quality of the papers is controlled. At the same
time, a higher citation count is shown especially by papers with a tag that is
specifically scientifically oriented ("new finding"). The findings indicate that
papers tailored for a readership outside the area of research should lead to
societal impact.
If altmetric data is to be used for the measurement of societal impact, the
question arises of its normalization. In bibliometrics, citations are normalized
for the papers' subject area and publication year. This study has taken a second
analytic step involving a possible normalization of altmetric data. As the results
show there are particular scientific topics which are of especial interest for a
wide audience. Since these more or less interesting topics are not completely
reflected in Thomson Reuters' journal sets, a normalization of altmetric data
should not be based on the level of subject categories, but on the level of topics.

AB In this study, we identified and analyzed characteristics of top-cited single-
author articles published in the Science Citation Index Expanded from 1991 to 2010.
A top-cited single-author article was defined as an article that had been cited at
least 1000 times from the time of its publication to 2012. Results showed that 1760
top-cited single-author articles were published in 539 journals listed in 130 Web
of Science categories between 1901 and 2010. The top productive journal was Science
and the most productive category was multidisciplinary physics. Most of the
articles were not published in high-impact journals. Harvard University led all
other institutions in publishing top-cited single-author articles. Nobel Prize
winners contributed 7.0% of articles. In total, 72 Nobel Prize winners published
124 single-author articles. Single-authored papers published in different periods
exhibited different patterns of citation trends. However, top-cited articles
consistently showed repetitive peaks regardless of the time period of publication.
"Theory (or theories)" was the most frequently appeared title word of all time.
Leading title words varied at different time periods, and only five title words,
method(s), protein(s), structure(s), molecular, and quantum consistently remained
in the top 20 in different time periods. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Citations are increasingly used for research evaluations. It is therefore
important to identify factors affecting citation scores that are unrelated to
scholarly quality or usefulness so that these can be taken into account. Regression
is the most powerful statistical technique to identify these factors and hence it
is important to identify the best regression strategy for citation data. Citation
counts tend to follow a discrete lognormal distribution and, in the absence of
alternatives, have been investigated with negative binomial regression. Using
simulated discrete lognormal data (continuous lognormal data rounded to the nearest
integer) this article shows that a better strategy is to add one to the citations,
take their log and then use the general linear (ordinary least squares) model for
regression (e. g., multiple linear regression, ANOVA), or to use the generalised
linear model without the log. Reasonable results can also be obtained if all the
zero citations are discarded, the log is taken of the remaining citation counts and
then the general linear model is used, or if the generalised linear model is used
with the continuous lognormal distribution. Similar approaches are recommended for
altmetric data, if it proves to be lognormally distributed. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

AB The distribution of cumulative citations L and contributed citations L-f to
individual multi-authored papers published by selected authors working in different
scientific disciplinesis analyzed and discussed using Langmuir-type function:
y(n)=y(0)[1-alpha Kn/(1 + Kn)], where y(n)-denotes the total number of normalized
cumulative citations l(n)* and normalized contributed citations l(nf)* received by
individual papers of rank n, y(0) is the maximum value of y(n) when n = 0, alpha >=
1 is an effectiveness parameter, and K is the Langmuir constant related to the
dimensionless differential energy Q = ln(KNc), with N-c as the number of papers
receiving citations. Relationships between the values of the Langmuir constant K of
the distribution function, the number N-c of papers of an individual author
receiving citations and the effectiveness parameter alpha of this function,
obtained from analysis of the data of rank size distributions of the authors, are
investigated. It was found that: (1) the quantity KNc obtained from the real
citation distribution of papers of various authors working in different disciplines
is inversely proportional to (alpha-1) with a proportional constant (KNc)(0)< 1,
(2) the relation KNc=(KNc)(0)/(alpha-1) also holds for the citation distribution of
journals published in countries of two different groups, investigated earlier
(Sangwal, K. (2013). Journal of Informetrics, 7, 487-504), and (3) deviations of
the real citation distribution from curves predicted by the Langmuir-type function
are associated with changing activity of sources of generation of items
(citations). (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We study the correlation between citation-based and expert-based assessments of
journals and series, which we collectively refer to as sources. The source
normalized impact per paper (SNIP), the Scimago Journal Rank 2 (SJR2) and the raw
impact per paper (RIP) indicators are used to assess sources based on their
citations, while the Norwegian model is used to obtain expert-based source
assessments. We first analyze - within different subject area categories and across
such categories - the degree to which RIP, SNIP and SJR2 values correlate with the
quality levels in the Norwegian model. We find that sources at higher quality
levels on average have substantially higher RIP, SNIP, and SJR2 values. Regarding
subject area categories, SNIP seems to perform substantially better than SJR2 from
the field normalization point of view. We then compare the ability of RIP, SNIP and
SJR2 to predict whether a source is classified at the highest quality level in the
Norwegian model or not. SNIP and SJR2 turn out to give more accurate predictions
than RIP, which provides evidence that normalizing for differences in citation
practices between scientific fields indeed improves the accuracy of citation
indicators. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The percentile-based rating scale P100 describes the citation impact in terms of
the distribution of unique citation values. This approach has recently been refined
by considering also the frequency of papers with the same citation counts. Here I
compare the resulting P100' with P100 for an empirical dataset and a simple

standard percentile-based ratings in terms of citation frequencies. A new indicator

AB This paper analyzes several well-known bibliometric indices using an axiomatic
approach. We concentrate on indices aiming at capturing the global impact of a
scientific output and do not investigate indices aiming at capturing an average
impact. Hence, the indices that we study are designed to evaluate authors or groups
of authors but not journals. The bibliometric indices that are studied include
classic ones such as the number of highly cited papers as well as more recent ones
such as the h-index and the g-index. We give conditions that characterize these
indices, up to the multiplication by a positive constant. We also study the
bibliometric rankings that are induced by these indices. Hence, we provide a
general framework for the comparison of bibliometric rankings and indices. (C) 2014

time. We empirically study the basic h-index sequence for cumulative publications
with consideration of the yearly citation performance (for convenience, referred as
L-Sequence). L-Sequence consists of a series of L factors. Based on the citations
received in the corresponding individual year, every factor along a scientist's
career span is calculated by using the h index formula. Thus L-Sequence shows the
scientist's dynamic research trajectory and provides insight into his/her
scientific performance at different periods. Furthermore, L proportional to,
summing up all factors of L-Sequence, is for the evaluation of the whole research
career as alternative to other h-index variants. Importantly, the partial factors
of the L-Sequence can be adapted for different evaluation tasks. Moreover, L-
Sequence could be used to highlight outstanding scientists in a specific period
whose research interests can be used to study the history and trends of a specific
discipline. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We clarify the content of the article "Impact coverage of the success-index" by
Leo Egghe and show that its real contribution is showing that for a Lotkaian system
it is possible to determine a threshold value as a function of the system's
parameters such that the value of the success-index corresponding to this threshold
value is equal to the h-index and similar indices. It is observed that these
results do not strictly hold in discrete systems. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB We first introduced interesting definitions of "heartbeat" and "heartbeat
spectrum" for "sleeping beauties", based on van Raan's variables. Then, we
investigated 58,963 papers of Nobel laureates during 1900-2000 and found 758
sleeping beauties. By proposing and using G(s) index, an adjustment of Gini
coefficient, to measure the inequality of "heartbeat spectrum", we observed that
publications which possess "late heartbeats" (most citations were received in the
second half of sleeping period) have higher awakening probability than those have
"early heartbeats" (most citations were received in the first half of sleeping
period). The awakening probability appears the highest if an article's G(s) index
exists in the interval [0.2, 0.6). (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI On standardization of the Activity Index
LA English
DT Article
DE Relative Specialization Index; Activity Index
AB Relative Specialization Index (RSI) was introduced as a simple transformation of
the Activity Index (AI), the aim of this transformation being standardization of
AI, and therefore more straightforward interpretation. RSI is believed to have
values between -1 and 1, with -1 meaning no activity of the country (institution)
in a certain scientific field, and 1 meaning that the country is only active in the
given field. While it is obvious from the definition of RSI that it can never be 1,
it is less obvious, and essentially unknown, that its upper limit can be quite far
from 1, depending on the scientific field. This is a consequence of the fact that
AI has different upper limits for different scientific fields. This means that
comparisons of RSIs, or AIs, across fields can be misleading. We therefore believe
that RSI should not be used at all. We also show how an appropriate standardization
of AI can be achieved. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Sub-field normalization of the IEEE scientific journals based on their
connection with Technical Societies
LA English
DT Article
DE Journal ranking; IEEE journal; Propensity to cite; Sub-field
normalization; IEEE Society
ID RESEARCH PERFORMANCE; IMPACT FACTOR; CITATIONS; INDICATORS
AB A recent paper (Canavero et al., 2014. Journal of the American Society for
Information Science and Technology, doi:10.1109/TPC.2013.2255935) performed a
bibliometric analysis of an extensive set of scientific journals within the
Engineering field, published by IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers). The analysis was based on (i) the citation impact of journal articles
and (ii) the reputation of journal authors in terms of total scientific production
and relevant citation impact.
The goal of this paper is to complement the prior analysis, investigating on the
different citation cultures of these journals, depending on the sub-field/specialty
of interest. To perform this evaluation, it is suggested a novel technique, which
takes into account the connections between journals and some highly specialized
communities of scientists, known as IEEE Technical Societies and Councils.
After showing significant differences in terms of propensity to cite, probably
attributable to the large variety of sub-fields and specialties covered by IEEE
journals, it is presented a simplified technique for the sub-field normalization of
the results of the prior study.
The main contribution of this work is (1) providing an empirical confirmation of
the complexity of the problem of normalization, even for journals within the same
field but different sub-fields/specialties, and (2) showing how the use of highly
specialized information on a journal reference sub-field(s) may be helpful for
improving the estimation of the journal propensity to cite. Description is
supported by a large amount of empirical data. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The aim of this study is to analyze some properties of the distribution of
journals that are cited in the h-core of citing journals listed in the Journal
Citation Reports. Data were obtained from the 2011 edition of JCR available for
universities in Spain. The citing journal matrix available in JCR was used to
identify the cited journals that appear most frequently in the h-core. The results
show that about 70% of citing journals occupy positions other than the first one in
the set of journals cited by them. Some properties of the distribution of cited
journals that appear in the h-core are also studied, such as the cost, in terms of
citations, of occupying a given position, and the spectrum of positions
(distribution of frequencies with which a given cited journal appears in different
positions). The measures calculated here could be used to define new scientometric
indicators. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A new link-based document ranking framework is devised with at its heart, a
contents and time sensitive random literature explorer designed to more accurately
model the behaviour of readers of scientific documents. In particular, our ranking
framework dynamically adjusts its random walk parameters according to both contents
and age of encountered documents, thus incorporating the diversity of topics and
how they evolve over time into the score of a scientific publication. Our random
walk framework results in a ranking of scientific documents which is shown to be
more effective in facilitating literature exploration than PageRank measured
against a proxy gold standard based on papers' potential usefulness in facilitating
later research. One of its many strengths lies in its practical value in reliably
retrieving and placing promisingly useful papers at the top of its ranking. (C)

AB How does the published scientific literature used by scientific community? Many
previous studies make analysis on the static usage data. In this research, we
propose the concept of dynamic usage data. Based on the platform of
realtime.springer.com, we have been monitoring and recording the dynamic usage data
of Scientometrics articles round the clock. Our analysis find that papers published
in recent four years have many more downloads than papers published four years ago.
According to our quantitative calculation, papers downloaded on one day have an
average lifetime of 4.1 years approximately. Classic papers are still being
downloaded frequently even long after their publication. Additionally, we find that
social media may reboot the attention of old scientific literature in a short time.

AB Cited non-source documents such as articles from regional journals, conference
papers, books and book chapters, working papers and reports have begun to attract
more attention in the literature. Most of this attention has been directed at
understanding the effects of including non-source items in research evaluation. In
contrast, little work has been done to examine the effects of including non-source
items on science maps and on the structure of science as reflected by those maps.
In this study we compare two direct citation maps of a 16-year set of Scopus
documents - one that includes only source documents, and one that includes non-
source documents along with the source documents. In addition to more than doubling
the contents of the map, from 19 M to 43 M documents, the inclusion of non-source
items strongly augments the social sciences relative to the natural sciences and
medicine and makes their position in the map more central. Books are also found to
play a significant role in the map, and are much more highly cited on average than
articles. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Bornmann, Stefaner, de Moya Anegon, and Mutz (2014) have introduced a web
application (www,excellencemappingmet) which is linked to both academic ranking
lists published hitherto (e.g. the Academic Ranking of World Universities) as well
as spatial visualization approaches. The web application visualizes institutional
performance within specific subject areas as ranking lists and on custom tile-based
maps. The new, substantially enhanced version of the web application and the
generalized linear mixed model for binomial data on which it is based are described
in this paper. Scopus data are used which have been collected for the SCImago
Institutions Ranking. Only those universities and research-focused institutions are
considered that have published at least 500 articles, reviews and conference papers
in the period 2006-2010 in a certain Scopus subject area. In the enhanced version,
the effect of single covariates (such as the per capita GDP of a country in which
an institution is located) on two performance metrics (best paper rate and best
journal rate) is examined and visualized. A covariate-adjusted ranking and mapping
of the institutions is produced in which the single covariates are held constant.
The results on the performance of institutions can then be interpreted as if the
institutions all had the same value (reference point) for the covariate in
question. For example, those institutions can be identified worldwide showing a
very good performance despite a bad financial situation in the corresponding
country. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study presents a unique approach in investigating the knowledge diffusion
structure for the field of data quality through an analysis of the main paths. We
study a dataset of 1880 papers to explore the knowledge diffusion path, using
citation data to build the citation network. The main paths are then investigated
and visualized via social network analysis. This paper takes three different main
path analyses, namely local, global, and key-route, to depict the knowledge
diffusion path and additionally implements the g-index and h-index to evaluate the
most important journals and researchers in the data quality domain. (C) 2014

AB The percentages of shares of world publications of the European Union and its
member states, China, and the United States have been represented differently as a
result of using different databases. An analytical variant of the Web-of-Science
(of Thomson Reuters) enables us to study the dynamics in the world publication
system in terms of the field-normalized top-1% and top-10% most-frequently cited
publications. Comparing the EU28, USA, and China at the global level shows a top-
level dynamic that is different from the analysis in terms of shares of
publications: the United States remains far more productive in the top-1% of all
papers; China drops out of the competition for elite status; and the EU28 increased
its share among the top-cited papers from 2000 to 2010. Some of the EU28 member
states overtook the United States during this decade; but a clear divide remains
between EU15 (Western Europe) and the Accession Countries. Network analysis shows
that China was embedded in this top-layer of internationally co-authored
publications. These publications often involve more than a single European nation.

TI Reversing the byline hierarchy: The effect of equalizing bias on the
accreditation of primary, secondary and senior authors
LA English
DT Article
DE Coauthor credit; Harmonic formula; Equalizing bias; Bibliometric
counting; Senior authorship
ID H-INDEX; CREDIT; PUBLICATION; CITATION; 1ST
AB Equalizing bias (EqB) is a systematic inaccuracy which arises when authorship
credit is divided equally among coauthors who have not contributed equally. As the
number of coauthors increases, the diminishing amount of credit allocated to each
additional coauthor is increasingly composed of equalizing bias such that when the
total number of coauthors exceeds 12, the credit score of most coauthors is
composed mostly of EqB. In general, EqB reverses the byline hierarchy and skews
bibliometric assessments by underestimating the contribution of primary authors,
i.e. those adversely affected by negative EqB, and overestimating the contribution
of secondary authors, those benefitting from positive EqB. The positive and
negative effects of EqB are balanced and sum to zero, but are not symmetrical. The
lack of symmetry exacerbates the relative effects of EqB, and explains why primary
authors are increasingly outnumbered by secondary authors as the number of
coauthors increases. Specifically, for a paper with 50 coauthors, the benefit of
positive EqB goes to 39 secondary authors while the burden of negative EqB befalls
11 primary authors. Relative to harmonic estimates of their actual contribution,
the EqB of the 50 coauthors ranged from < -90% to > 350%. Senior authorship, when
it occurs, is conventionally indicated by a corresponding last author and
recognized as being on a par with a first author. If senior authorship is not
recognized, then the credit lost by an unrecognized senior author is distributed
among the other coauthors as part of their EqB. The powerful distortional effect of
EqB is compounded in bibliometric indices and performance rankings derived from
biased equal credit. Equalizing bias must therefore be corrected at the source by
ensuring accurate accreditation of all coauthors prior to the calculation of
aggregate publication metrics. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This paper investigates directional returns to scale (RTS) and illustrates this
approach by studying biological institutes of the Chinese Academy of Sciences
(CAS). Using the following input-output indicators are proposed: senior
professional and technical staffs, middle level and junior professional and
technical staffs, research expenditure on personnel salaries and other
expenditures, SCI papers, high-quality papers, graduates training and intellectual
properties, the paper uses the methods recently proposed by Yang to analyze the
directional returns to scale and the effect of directional congestion of biological
institutes in Chinese Academy of Sciences. Based on our analysis we come to the
following findings: (1) we detect the regime of directional returns to scale
(increasing, constant, decreasing) for each biological institute. This information
can be used as the basis for decision-making about organizational adjustment; (2)
congestion and directional congestion occurs in several biological institutes. In
such cases the outputs of these institutes decrease when the inputs increase. Such
institutes should analyze the underlying reason for the occurrence of congestion so
that S&T resources can be used more efficiently. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

TI Visualization of ranking data: Geographical signatures in international
collaboration, leadership and research impact

DE Institutional rankings; International collaboration; Research impact
ID UNIVERSITY; QUALITY
AB In this work we address the comprehensive Scimago Institutions Ranking 2012,
proposing a data visualization of the listed bibliometric indicators for the 509
Higher Education Institutions among the 600 largest research institutions ranked
according to their outputs. We focus on research impact, internationalization and
leadership indicators, which became important benchmarks in a worldwide discussion
about research quality and impact policies for universities. Our data visualization
reveals a qualitative difference between the behavior of Northern American and
Western European Higher Education Institutions concerning International
collaboration levels. Chinese universities show still a systematic low
international collaboration levels which are positively linked to the low research
impact. The data suggests that research impact can be related directly to
internationalization only to rather low values for both indicators. Above world
average, other determinants may become relevant in fostering further impact. The
leadership indicator provides further insights to the collaborative environment of
universities in different geographical regions, as well as the optimized
collaboration portfolio for enhancing research impact. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All

STATISTICS; EMERGENCE; EVOLUTION; TOPOLOGY; MODELS; AGE
AB Preferential Attachment (PA) models the scientific citation process. In the PA
model, a new paper attaches itself to the citation network based only on the
popularity of the currently existing papers. This invariably leads to a network
whose degree distribution satisfies the Power Law. Yet, empirical results show that
paper age should also play a role in the citation process. In other words, when
references are chosen for a new paper, the age of an existing paper may also affect
the choice for citing. In this paper, we derive a generalized PA model that
includes the effect of aging, with analytical solution. Such a model can be used to
analyze the competing influence of preferential attachment and aging effect
quantitatively in citation process and explain differences in various research
domains by the extent of aging. It may also serve as a general model of network
formation. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In a recent paper, Chambers and Miller introduced two fundamental axioms for
scientific research indices. We perform a detailed analysis of these two axioms,
thereby providing clean combinatorial characterizations of the research indices
that satisfy these axioms and of the so-called step-based indices. We single out
the staircase indices as a particularly simple subfamily of the step-based indices,
and we provide a simple axiomatic characterization for them. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Previous research shows that researchers' social network metrics obtained from a
collaborative output network (e.g., joint publications or co-authorship network)
impact their performance determined by g-index. We use a richer dataset to show
that a scholar's performance should be considered with respect to position in
multiple networks. Previous research using only the network of researchers' joint
publications shows that a researcher's distinct connections to other researchers, a
researcher's number of repeated collaborative outputs, and a researchers' redundant
connections to a group of researchers who are themselves well-connected has a
positive impact on the researchers' performance, while a researcher's tendency to
connect with other researchers who are themselves well-connected (i.e., eigenvector
centrality) had a negative impact on the researchers' performance. Our findings are
similar except that we find that eigenvector centrality has a positive impact on
the performance of scholars. Moreover, our results demonstrate that a researcher's
tendency toward dense local neighborhoods and the researchers' demographic
attributes such as gender should also be considered when investigating the impact
of the social network metrics on the performance of researchers. (C) 2014 Elsevier

AB This paper explores a possible approach to a research evaluation, by calculating
the renown of authors of scientific papers. The evaluation is based on the citation
analysis and its results should be close to a human viewpoint. The PageRank
algorithm and its modifications were used for the evaluation of various types of
citation networks. Our main research question was whether better evaluation results
were based directly on an author network or on a publication network. Other issues
concerned, for example, the determination of weights in the author network and the
distribution of publication scores among their authors. The citation networks were
extracted from the computer science domain in the ISI Web of Science database. The
influence of self-citations was also explored. To find the best network for a
research evaluation, the outputs of PageRank were compared with lists of
prestigious awards in computer science such as the Turing and Codd award, ISI
Highly Cited and ACM Fellows. Our experiments proved that the best ranking of
authors was obtained by using a publication citation network from which self-
citations were eliminated, and by distributing the same proportional parts of the
publications' values to their authors. The ranking can be used as a criterion for
the financial support of research teams, for identifying leaders of such teams,
etc. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Genre is considered to be an important element in scholarly communication and in
the practice of scientific disciplines. However, scientometric studies have
typically focused on a single genre, the journal article. The goal of this study is
to understand the role that handbooks play in knowledge creation and diffusion and
their relationship with the genre of journal articles, particularly in highly
interdisciplinary and emergent social science and humanities disciplines. To shed
light on these questions we focused on handbooks and journal articles published
over the last four decades belonging to the research area of science and technology
studies (STS), broadly defined. To get a detailed picture we used the full-text of
five handbooks (500,000 words) and a well-defined set of 11,700 STS articles. We
confirmed the methodological split of STS into qualitative and quantitative
(scientometric) approaches. Even when the two traditions explore similar topics
(e.g., science and gender) they approach them from different starting points. The
change in cognitive foci in both handbooks and articles partially reflects the
changing trends in STS research, often driven by technology. Using text similarity
measures we found that, in the case of STS, handbooks play no special role in
either focusing the research efforts or marking their decline. In general, they do
not represent the summaries of research directions that have emerged since the
previous edition of the handbook. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID SPIN-GLASS PHASE; SCIENCE
AB By modeling research systems as complex systems we generalize similarity
measures used in the literature during the last two decades. We propose to use the
mathematical tools developed within the spin-glasses literature to evaluate
similarity within systems and between systems in a unified manner. Our measure is
based on the 'overlap' of disciplinary profiles of a set of research systems and
can readily be integrated in the framework of traditional bibliometric profile
analysis. The investigation of the distribution of the overlaps provides useful
insights on the dynamics of the general system, that is whether it converges toward
a unique disciplinary structure or to a differentiated pattern.
We illustrate the usefulness of the approach by investigating the dynamics of
disciplinary profiles of European countries from 1996 to 2011. We analyze several
bibliometric indicators (including publications and citations) of European
countries in the 27 Scopus subject categories. We compare the disciplinary profiles
of European countries (i) among them; (ii) with respect to the European standard;
and (iii) to the World reference.
We find that there is a convergence toward a unique European disciplinary
profile of the scientific production even if large differences in the scientific
profiles still remain. The investigation of the dynamics by year shows that
developing countries are converging toward the European model while some developed
countries are departing from it. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The main objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between research
impact and the structural properties of co-author networks. A new bibliographic
source, Microsoft Academic Search, is introduced to test its suitability for
bibliometric analyses. Citation counts and 500 one-step ego networks were extracted
from this engine. Results show that tiny and sparse networks - characterized by a
high Betweenness centrality and a high Average path length - achieved more
citations per document than dense and compact networks described by a high
Clustering coefficient and a high Average degree. According to disciplinary
differences, Mathematics, Social Sciences and Economics & Business are the
disciplines with more sparse and tiny networks; while Physics, Engineering and
Geosciences are characterized by dense and crowded networks. This suggests that in
sparse ego networks, the central author have more control on their collaborators
being more selective in their recruitment and concluding that this behaviour has
positive implications in the research impact. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB A new percentile-based rating scale P100 has recently been proposed to describe
the citation impact in terms of the distribution of the unique citation values.
Here I investigate P100 for 5 example datasets, two simple fictitious models and
three larger empirical samples. Counterintuitive behavior is demonstrated in the
model datasets, pointing to difficulties when the evolution with time of the
indicator is analyzed or when different fields or publication years are compared.
It is shown that similar problems can occur for the three larger datasets of
empirical citation values. Further, it is observed that the performance evaluation
result in terms of percentiles can be influenced by selecting different journals
for publication of a manuscript. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

LA English
DT Article
DE Bibliometric database; Database errors; Omitted citations; Scientific
journal publisher; Error correction; Manufacturing Engineering
AB Omitted citations - i.e., missing links between a cited paper and the
corresponding citing papers - are the main consequence of several bibliometric
database errors.
This paper investigates the possible relationship between omitted citations and
publishers of the relevant citing papers. This relationship is potentially
meaningful because: (i) publishers generally impose editorial styles, which could
affect database errors, and (ii) some publishers may be more efficient than others
in detecting and correcting pre-existing errors in the manuscripts to be published,
reducing the risk of database errors.
Based on an extensive sample of scientific papers in the Manufacturing
Engineering field, this study examines the citations omitted by the Scopus and WoS
databases, using a recent automated algorithm. Major results are that: (i) there
are significant differences in terms of omitted-citation rate between publishers
and (ii) the omitted-citation rates of publishers may vary depending on the
database in use. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB National policies aimed at fostering the effectiveness of scientific systems
should be based on reliable strategic analysis identifying strengths and weaknesses
at field level. Approaches and indicators thus far proposed in the literature have
not been completely satisfactory, since they fail to distinguish the effect of the
size of production factors from that of their quality, particularly the quality of
labor. The current work proposes an innovative "input-oriented" approach, which
permits: (i) estimation of national research performance in a field and comparison
to that of other nations, independent of the size of their respective research
staffs; and, for fields of comparable intensity of publication, (ii) identification
of the strong and weak research fields within a national research system on the
basis of international comparison. In reference to the second objective, the
proposed approach is applied to the Italian case, through the analysis of the 2006-
2010 scientific production of the Italian academic system, in the 200 research
fields where bibliometric analysis is meaningful. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This study proposes a temporal analysis method to utilize heterogeneous
resources such as papers, patents, and web news articles in an integrated manner.
We analyzed the time gap phenomena between three resources and two academic areas
by conducting text mining-based content analysis. To this end, a topic modeling
technique, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) was used to estimate the optimal time
gaps among three resources (papers, patents, and web news articles) in two research
domains. The contributions of this study are summarized as follows: firstly, we
propose a new temporal analysis method to understand the content characteristics
and trends of heterogeneous multiple resources in an integrated manner. We applied
it to measure the exact time intervals between academic areas by understanding the
time gap phenomena. The results of temporal analysis showed that the resources of
the medical field had more up-to-date property than those of the computer field,
and thus prompter disclosure to the public. Secondly, we adopted a power-law
exponent measurement and content analysis to evaluate the proposed method. With the
proposed method, we demonstrate how to analyze heterogeneous resources more
precisely and comprehensively. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study proposes a network-based model with two parameters to find
influential authors based on the idea that the prestige of a whole network changes
when a node is removed. We apply the Katz-Bonacich centrality to define network
prestige, which agrees with the idea behind the PageRank algorithm. We further
deduce a concise mathematical formula to calculate each author's influence score to
find the influential ones. Furthermore, the functions of two parameters are
revealed by the analysis of simulation and the test on the real-world data.
Parameter alpha provides useful information exogenous to the established network,
and parameter beta measures the robustness of the result for cases in which the
incompleteness of the network is considered. On the basis of the coauthor network
of Paul Erdos, a comprehensive application of this new model is also provided. (C)

AB This study examines collaboration dynamics with the goal to predict and
recommend collaborations starting from the current topology. Author-, institution-,
and country-level collaboration networks are constructed using a ten-year data set
on library and information science publications. Different statistical approaches
are applied to these collaboration networks. The study shows that, for the employed
data set in particular, higher-level collaboration networks (i.e., country-level
collaboration networks) tend to yield more accurate prediction outcomes than lower-
level ones (i.e., institution- and author-level collaboration networks). Based on
the recommended collaborations of the data set, this study finds that neighbor-
information-based approaches are more clustered on a 2-D multidimensional scaling
map than topology-based ones. Limitations of the applied approaches on sparse
collaboration networks are also discussed. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper examines the effects of inflationary and equalizing bias on
publication output rankings. Any identifiable amount of bias in authorship
accreditation was detrimental to accuracy when ranking a select group of leading
Canadian aquaculture researchers. Bias arose when publication scores were
calculated without taking into account information about multiple authorship and
differential coauthor contributions. The ensuing biased equal credit scores,
whether fractional or inflated, produced rankings that were fundamentally different
from the ranking of harmonic estimates of actual credit calculated by using all
relevant byline information in the source data. In conclusion, the results indicate
that both fractional and inflated rankings are misleading, and suggest that
accurate accreditation of coauthors is the key to reliable publication performance
rankings. (C) 2014 The Author. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Citation based approaches, such as the impact factor and h-index, have been used
to measure the influence or impact of journals for journal rankings. A survey of
the related literature for different disciplines shows that the level of
correlation between these citation based approaches is domain dependent. We analyze
the correlation between the impact factors and h-indices of the top ranked computer
science journals for five different subjects. Our results show that the correlation
between these citation based approaches is very low. Since using a different
approach can result in different journal rankings, we further combine the different
results and then re-rank the journals using a combination method. These new ranking
results can be used as a reference for researchers to choose their publication
outlets. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB One problem confronting the use of citation-based metrics in science studies and
research evaluations is the Matthew effect. This paper reviews the role of
citations in science and decomposes the Matthew effect in citations into three
components: networking, prestige, and appropriateness. The networking and prestige
effects challenge the validity of citation-based metrics, but the appropriateness
effect does not. Using panel data of 1279 solo-authored papers' citation histories
and fixed effects models, we test these three effects controlling for unobserved
paper characteristics. We find no evidence of retroactive networking effect and
only weak evidence of prestige effect (very small and not always significant),
which provides some support for the use of citation-based metrics in science
studies and evaluation practices. In addition, adding the appropriateness effect
reduces the size of the prestige effect considerably, suggesting that previous
studies controlling for paper quality but not appropriateness may have
overestimated the prestige effect. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID IMPACT INDICATOR
AB In the present paper the Percentage Rank Position (PRP) index concluding from
the principle of Similar Distribution of Information Impact in different fields of
science (Vinkler, 2013), is suggested to assess journals in different research
fields comparatively. The publications in the journals dedicated to a field are
ranked by citation frequency, and the PRP-index of the papers in the elite set of
the field is calculated. The PRP-index relates the citation rank number of the
paper to the total number of papers in the corresponding set. The sum of the PRP-
index of the elite papers in a journal, PRP(j,F) may represent the eminence of the
journal in the field. The non-parametric and non-dimensional PRP(j,F) index of
journals is believed to be comparable across fields. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB The objective of the study is to examine the empirical relationship between
educational indicators and research outcomes in top twenty nations of the World in
terms of number of publications, citations and patents. The literature on higher
education is useful in expressing the general and visible characteristics of a
research domain, but cannot reveal the possible interaction between educational
reforms and research outcomes. In order to overcome this limitation, the current
study employed a panel cointegration technique to evaluate the long-run
relationship between educational indicators and research productivity over a period
of 1980-2011. The results reveal that educational indicators act as an important
driver to increase research productivity in the panel of selected countries. The
most promising educational factors i.e., higher education enrolment increases GDP
and number of publications by 0.898% and 1.425%, respectively. Similarly, higher
education expenditures per student increases research and development (R&D)
expenditures, number of citations and number of patents by 1.128%, 0.968% and
0.714%, respectively. Finally, increasing school-life expectancy contributed to
researchers in R&D by 0.401%. The study concludes that there is a window of
opportunity to equip the youth with necessary skills to ensure a sustainable future
for the nations. Higher education empowers and enables students to compete in a
highly competitive and interconnected world through research and innovations, which
are the drivers of new ideas, businesses and economic growth. (C) 2014 Elsevier

ID MADDALA INCOME DISTRIBUTIONS; SIZE DISTRIBUTION
AB The distribution of impact factors has been modeled in the recent informetric
literature using two-exponent law proposed by Mansilla, Koppen, Cocho, and
Miramontes (2007). This paper shows that two distributions widely-used in
economics, namely the Dagum and Singh-Maddala models, possess several advantages
over the two-exponent model. Compared to the latter, the former models give as good
as or slightly better fit to data on impact factors in eight important scientific
fields. In contrast to the two-exponent model, both proposed distributions have
closed-from probability density functions and cumulative distribution functions,
which facilitates fitting these distributions to data and deriving their
statistical properties. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID SUBJECT CLASSIFICATION; SCIENCE; CITATION; INFORMATION; TEXT
AB Subject classification arises as an important topic for bibliometrics and
scientometrics, searching to develop reliable and consistent tools and outputs.
Such objectives also call for a well delimited underlying subject classification
scheme that adequately reflects scientific fields. Within the broad ensemble of
classification techniques, clustering analysis is one of the most successful.
Two clustering algorithms based on modularity the VOS and Louvain methods are
presented here for the purpose of updating and optimizing the journal
classification of the SCImago Journal & Country Rank (SJR) platform. We used
network analysis and Pajek visualization software to run both algorithms on a
network of more than 18,000 SJR journals combining three citation-based measures of
direct citation, co-citation and bibliographic coupling. The set of clusters
obtained was termed through category labels assigned to SJR journals and
significant words from journal titles.
Despite the fact that both algorithms exhibited slight differences in
performance, the results show a similar behaviour in grouping journals.
Consequently, they are deemed to be appropriate solutions for classification
purposes. The two newly generated algorithm-based classifications were compared to
other bibliometric classification systems, including the original SJR and WoS
Subject Categories, in order to validate their consistency, adequacy and accuracy.
In addition to some noteworthy differences, we found a certain coherence and
homogeneity among the four classification systems analysed. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

AB This paper shows how bibliometric models can be used to assist peers in
selecting candidates for academic openings.
Several studies have demonstrated that a relationship exists between results
from peer-review evaluations and results obtained with certain bibliometric
indicators. However, very little has been done to analyse the predictive power of
models based on bibliometric indicators. Indicators with high predictive power will
be seen as good instruments to support peer evaluations. The goal of this study is
to assess the predictive power of a model based on bibliometric indicators for the
results of academic openings at the level of Associado and Catedratico at
Portuguese universities. Our results suggest that the model can predict the results
of peer-review at this level with a reasonable degree of accuracy. This predictive
power is better when only the scientific performance is assessed by peers. (C) 2014

AB The journal impact factor is not comparable among fields of science and social
science because of systematic differences in publication and citation behavior
across disciplines. In this work, a source normalization of the journal impact
factor is proposed. We use the aggregate impact factor of the citing journals as a
measure of the citation potential in the journal topic, and we employ this citation
potential in the normalization of the journal impact factor to make it comparable
between scientific fields. An empirical application comparing some impact
indicators with our topic normalized impact factor in a set of 224 journals from
four different fields shows that our normalization, using the citation potential in
the journal topic, reduces the betwen-group variance with respect to the within-
group variance in a higher proportion than the rest of indicators analyzed. The
effect of journal self-citations over the normalization process is also studied.

AB Unlike Impact Factors (IF), Article Influence (AI) scores assign greater weight
to citations that appear in highly cited journals. The natural sciences tend to
have higher citation rates than the social sciences. We might therefore expect that
relative to IF, AI overestimates the citation impact of social science journals in
subfields that are related to (and presumably cited in) higher-impact natural
science disciplines. This study evaluates that assertion through a set of simple
and multiple regressions covering seven social science disciplines: anthropology,
communication, economics, education, library and information science, psychology,
and sociology. Contrary to expectations. AI underestimates 5IF (five-year Impact
Factor) for journals in science-related subfields such as scientific communication,
science education, scientometrics, biopsychology, and medical sociology. journals
in these subfields have low AI scores relative to their 5IF values. Moreover, the
effect of science-related status is considerable typically 0.60 5IF units or 0.50
SD. This effect is independent of the more general finding that AI scores
underestimate 5IF for higher-impact journals. It is also independent of the very
modest curvilinearity in the relationship between AI and 5IF. (C) 2014 Elsevier

ID SCIENCE; COOPERATION; PERSONALITY; PUNISHMENT; EVOLUTION; EMPATHY
AB A great deal of work has been done to understand how science contributes to
technological innovation and medicine. This is no surprise given the amount of
money invested annually in R&D. However, what is not well known is that US science
(R&D) investment is only one-sixth that of the annual revenue received by non-
profit organizations (NPOs) in the US. The large majority of NPO revenues are
devoted to the remaining landscape of altruistic causes - those not relying as
heavily on scientific inquiry. Given this broader context, one might reasonably
expect the non-profit world to have been as well characterized as that of
scientific research. The unfortunate truth is that no map of altruistic missions
and causes exists; the landscape of altruistic activity is virtually unknown. In
this paper, we present the first maps of altruistic mission space. These maps were
created using the text from websites of 125,000 non-profit organizations (NPOs) in
the US. The maps consist of 357 topics covering areas such as religion, education,
sports, culture, human services, public policy and medical care. The role of
science in this altruistic landscape is examined. Possible applications are
discussed.

ID BIOMEDICAL-RESEARCH; JOURNALS
AB A system of four research levels, designed to classify scientific journals from
most applied to most basic, was introduced by Francis Narin and colleagues in the
1970s. Research levels have been used since that time to characterize research at
institutional and departmental levels. Currently, less than half of all articles
published are in journals that been classified by research level. There is thus a
need for the notion of research level to be extended in a way that all articles can
be so classified. This article reports on a new model - trained from title and
abstract words and cited references - that classifies individual articles by
research level. The model covers all of science, and has been used to classify over
25 million articles from Scopus by research level. The final model and set of
classified articles are further characterized. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

ID JOURNAL IMPACT FACTOR; PUBLICATIONS; SCIENCE; INDEX; MODEL
AB The time evolution of mean received citations is calculated on a sample of
journals from two ISI subject categories ("Chemistry, multidisciplinary", ISI
Science Edition, and "Management", ISI Social Science edition) with the use of an
original methodology. Mean received citations are plotted against the time gap in
years existing between publication of the cited article and received citations. For
most Chemistry journals in the sample the maximum number of average received
citations occurs two years after publication, and then a decrease is experimented.
Some peculiar cases present a different trend. Management journals, conversely, do
not present in most cases a peak of citations: average received citations instead
grow from year of publication to the age of 10 years (maximum time gap studied). A
sub-sample of journals show similar results for longer time series (up to 23
years). Medians of average received citations per year partly show a similar
behavior. Results suggest that citedness follows very different trends in very
different fields, and partly suggest why differences in journal Impact Factor exist
between different categories. At the end of the work conclusions are drawn,
together with suggestions for future research. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Within the field of bibliometrics, there is sustained interest in how nations
"compete" in terms of academic disciplines, and what determinants explain why
countries may have a specific advantage in one discipline over another. However,
this literature has not, to date, presented a comprehensive structured model that
could be used in the interpretation of a country's research profile and academic
output. In this paper, we use frameworks from international business and economics
to present such a model.
Our study makes four major contributions. First, we include a very wide range of
countries and disciplines, explicitly including the Social Sciences, which
unfortunately are excluded in most bibliometrics studies. Second, we apply theories
of revealed comparative advantage and the competitive advantage of nations to
academic disciplines. Third, we cluster our 34 countries into five different groups
that have distinct combinations of revealed comparative advantage in five major
disciplines. Finally, based on our empirical work and prior literature, we present
an academic diamond that details factors likely to explain a country's research
profile and competitiveness in certain disciplines. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB This paper contributes to the longitudinal study and representation of the
diffusion of scholarly knowledge through bibliometrics. The case of systems biology
is used to illustrate a means for considering the structure and different roles of
journals in the diffusion of a relatively new field to diverse subject areas. Using
a bipartite network analysis of journals and subject categories, a core-
intermediary-periphery diffusion structure is detected through comparative analysis
of betweenness centrality over time. Systems biology diffuses from a core of
foundational, theoretical areas to more specific, applied, practical fields, most
of which relate to human health. Next, cluster analysis is applied to subject
category co-occurrence networks to longitudinally trace the movement of fields
within the core-intermediary-periphery structure. The results of these analyses
reveal patterns of systems biology's diffusion across both theoretical and applied
fields, and are also used to suggest how the dynamics of a field's
interdisciplinary evolution can be realized. The author concludes by presenting a
typology for considering how journals may function to support attributes of the
core-intermediary-periphery structure and diffusion patterns more broadly. (C) 2013

AB Interdisciplinary teams are assembled in scientific research and are aimed at
solving complex problems. Given their increasing importance, it is not surprising
that considerable attention has been focused on processes of collaboration in
interdisciplinary teams. Despite such efforts, we know less about the factors
affecting the assembly of such teams in the first place. In this paper, we
investigate the structure and the success of interdisciplinary scientific research
teams. We examine the assembly factors using a sample of 1103 grant proposals
submitted to two National Science Foundation interdisciplinary initiatives during a
3-year period, including both awarded and non-awarded proposals. The results
indicate that individuals' likelihood of collaboration on a proposal is higher
among those with longer tenure, lower institutional tier, lower H-index, and with
higher levels of prior co-authorship and citation relationships. However,
successful proposals have a little bit different relational patterns: individuals'
likelihood of collaboration is higher among those with lower institutional tier,
lower H-index, (female) gender, higher levels of prior co-authorship, but with
lower levels of prior citation relationships. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB One of the flaws of the journal impact factor (IF) is that it cannot be used to
compare journals from different fields or multidisciplinary journals because the IF
differs significantly across research fields. This study proposes a new measure of
journal performance that captures field-different citation characteristics. We view
journal performance from the perspective of the efficiency of a journal's citation
generation process. Together with the conventional variables used in calculating
the IF, the number of articles as an input and the number of total citations as an
output, we additionally consider the two field-different factors, citation density
and citation dynamics, as inputs. We also separately capture the contribution of
external citations and self-citations and incorporate their relative importance in
measuring journal performance. To accommodate multiple inputs and outputs whose
relationships are unknown, this study employs data envelopment analysis (DEA), a
multi-factor productivity model for measuring the relative efficiency of decision-
making units without any assumption of a production function. The resulting
efficiency score, called DEA-IF, can then be used for the comparative evaluation of
multidisciplinary journals' performance. A case study example of industrial
engineering journals is provided to illustrate how to measure DEA-IF and its
usefulness. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Ever more frequently, governments have decided to implement policy measures
intended to foster and reward excellence in scientific research. This is in fact
the intended purpose of national research assessment exercises. These are typically
based on the analysis of the quality of the best research products; however, a
different approach to analysis and intervention is based on the measure of
productivity of the individual scientists, meaning the. overall impact of their
entire scientific production over the period under observation. This work analyzes
the convergence of the two approaches, asking if and to what measure the most
productive scientists achieve highly cited articles; or vice versa, what share of
highly cited articles is achieved by scientists that are "non-top" for
productivity. To do this we use bibliometric indicators, applied to the 2004-2008
publications authored by academics of Italian universities and indexed in the Web
of Science. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Dynamic development is an intrinsic characteristic of research topics. To study
this, this paper proposes two sets of topic attributes to examine topic dynamic
characteristics: topic continuity and topic popularity. Topic continuity comprises
six attributes: steady, concentrating, diluting, sporadic, transforming, and
emerging topics; topic popularity comprises three attributes: rising, declining,
and fluctuating topics. These attributes are applied to a data set on library and
information science publications during the past 11 years (2001-2011). Results show
that topics on "web information retrieval", "citation and bibliometrics", "system
and technology", and "health science" have the highest average popularity; topics
on "h-index", "online communities", "data preservation", "social media", and "web
analysis" are increasingly becoming popular in library and information science. (C)

AB The increasing costs of research and the decreasing lifetime of products and
processes make the decisions on allocation of R&D funds strategically important.
Therefore, ability to predict research trends is crucial in minimizing risks of R&D
expenditure planning. The purpose of this paper is to propose a model for efficient
prediction of research trends in a chosen branch of science. The approach is based
on population dynamics with Burgers' type global interaction and selective
neighborhood. The model is estimated based on a training set. Then, an out-of-
sample forecast is performed. The research trends of filtration and rectification
processes were analyzed in this paper. The simulation results show that the model
is able to predict the trends with a considerable accuracy and should, therefore,
be tested on a wider range of research fields. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

TI Classification method for detecting coercive self-citation in journals
LA English

DE Scientific journal; Coercive self-citation; Classification
ID IMPACT FACTOR
AB Journal self-citations strongly affect journal evaluation indicators (such as
impact factors) at the mesa- and micro-levels, and therefore they are often
increased artificially to inflate the evaluation indicators in journal evaluation
systems. This coercive self-citation is a form of scientific misconduct that
severely undermines the objective authenticity of these indicators. In this study,
we developed the feature space for describing journal citation behavior and
conducted feature selection by combining GA-Wrapper with RelifF. We also
constructed a journal classification model using the logistic regression method to
identify normal and abnormal journals. We evaluated the performance of the
classification model using journals in three subject areas (BIOLOGY, MATHEMATICS
and CHEMISTRY, APPLIED) during 2002-2011 as the test samples and good results were
achieved in our experiments. Thus, we developed an effective method for the
accurate identification of coercive self-citations. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB The non-citation rate refers to the proportion of papers that do not attract any
citation over a period of time following their publication. After reviewing all the
related papers in Web of Science, Google Scholar and Scopus database, we find the
current literature on citation distribution gives more focus on the distribution of
the percentages and citations of papers receiving at least one citation, while
there are fewer studies on the time-dependent patterns of the percentage of never-
cited papers, on what distribution model can fit their time-dependent patterns, as
well as on the factors influencing the non-citation rate. Here, we perform an
empirical pilot analysis to the time-dependent distribution of the percentages of
never-cited papers in a series of different, consecutive citation time windows
following their publication in our selected six sample journals, and study the
influence of paper length on the chance of papers' getting cited. Through the above
analysis, the following general conclusions are drawn: (1) a three-parameter
negative exponential model can well fit timedependent distribution curve of the
percentages of never-cited papers; (2) in the initial citation time window, the
percentage of never-cited papers in each journal is very high. However, as the
citation time window becomes wider and wider, the percentage of never-cited papers
begins to drop rapidly at first, and then drop more slowly, and the total degree of
decline for most of journals is very large; (3) when applying the wider citation
time windows, the percentage of never-cited papers for each journal begins to
approach a stable value, and after that value, there will be very few changes in
these stable percentages, unless we meet a large amount of "Sleeping Beauties" type
papers; (4) the length of an paper has a great influence on whether it will be
cited or not. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI A comparative study of cross-domain research output and citations:
Research impact cubes and binary citation frequencies

AB Across the various scientific domains, significant differences occur with
respect to research publishing formats, frequencies and citing practices, the
nature and organisation of research and the number and impact of a given domain's
academic journals. Consequently, differences occur in the citations and h-indices
of the researchers. This paper attempts to identify cross-domain differences using
quantitative and qualitative measures. The study focuses on the relationships among
citations, most-cited papers and h-indices across domains and for research group
sizes. The analysis is based on the research output of approximately 10,000
researchers in Slovenia, of which we focus on 6536 researchers working in 284
research group programmes in 2008-2012.
As comparative measures of cross-domain research output, we propose the research
impact cube (RIC) representation and the analysis of most-cited papers, highest
impact factors and citation distribution graphs (Lorenz curves). The analysis of
Lotka's model resulted in the proposal of a binary citation frequencies (BCF)
distribution model that describes well publishing frequencies. The results may be
used as a model to measure, compare and evaluate fields of science on the global,
national and research community level to streamline research policies and evaluate
progress over a definite time period. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We have developed a (freeware) routine for "Referenced Publication Years
Spectroscopy" (RPYS) and apply this method to the historiography of "iMetrics,"
that is, the junction of the journals Scientometrics, Informetrics, and the
relevant subset of JASIST (approx. 20%) that shapes the intellectual space for the
development of information metrics (bibliometrics, scientometrics, informetrics,
and webometrics). The application to information metrics (our own field of
research) provides us with the opportunity to validate this methodology, and to add
a reflection about using citations for the historical reconstruction. The results
show that the field is rooted in individual contributions of the 1920s to 1950s
(e.g., Alfred J. Lotka), and was then shaped intellectually in the early 1960s by a
confluence of the history of science (Derek de Solla Price), documentation (e.g.,
Michael M. Kessler's "bibliographic coupling"), and "citation indexing" (Eugene
Garfield). Institutional development at the interfaces between science studies and
information science has been reinforced by the new journal Inforrnetrics since
2007. In a concluding reflection, we return to the question of how the
historiography of science using algorithmic means in terms of citation practices
can be different from an intellectual history of the field based, for example, on
reading source materials. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI How to improve the prediction based on citation impact percentiles for
years shortly after the publication date?
LA English
DT Article

ID ASSESSMENTS; INDICATOR
AB The findings of Bornmann, Leydesdorff, and Wang (2013b) revealed that the
consideration of journal impact improves the prediction of long-term citation
impact. This paper further explores the possibility of improving citation impact
measurements on the base of a short citation window by the consideration of journal
impact and other variables, such as the number of authors, the number of cited
references, and the number of pages. The dataset contains 475,391 journal papers
published in 1980 and indexed in Web of Science (WoS, Thomson Reuters), and all
annual citation counts (from 1980 to 2010) for these papers. As an indicator of
citation impact, we used percentiles of citations calculated using the approach of
Hazen (1914). Our results show that citation impact measurement can really be
improved: If factors generally influencing citation impact are considered in the
statistical analysis, the explained variance in the long-term citation impact can
be much increased. However, this increase is only visible when using the years
shortly after publication but not when using later years. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

RELIABILITY
AB The journal impact factor (JIF) reported in journal citation reports has been
used to represent the influence and prestige of a journal. Whereas the
consideration of the stochastic nature of a statistic is a prerequisite for
statistical inference, the estimation of JIF uncertainty is necessary yet
unavailable for comparing the impact among journals. Using journals in the Database
of Research in Science Education (DoRISE), the current study proposes bootstrap
methods to estimate the JIF variability. The paper also provides a comprehensive
exposition of the sources of JIF variability. The collections of articles in the
year of interest and in the preceding years both contribute to JIF variability. In
addition, the variability estimate differs depending on the way a database selects
its journals for inclusion. In the bootstrap process, the nested structure of
articles in a journal was accounted for to ensure that each bootstrap replication
reflects the actual citation characteristics of articles in the journal. In
conclusion, the proposed point and interval estimates of the JIF statistic are
obtained and more informative inferences on the impact of journals can be drawn.

AB Author co-citation analysis (ACA) has long been used as an effective method for
identifying the intellectual structure of a research domain, but it relies on
simple co-citation counting, which does not take the citation content into
consideration. The present study proposes a new method for measuring the similarity
between co-cited authors by considering author's citation content. We collected the
full-text journal articles in the information science domain and extracted the
citing sentences to calculate their similarity distances. We compared our method
with traditional ACA and found out that our approach, while displaying a similar
intellectual structure for the information science domain as the other baseline
methods, also provides more details about the sub-disciplines in the domain than
with traditional ACA. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID INDEX
AB this contribution we show how results obtained in a series of papers by Egghe
can be refined in the sense that we need fewer additional conditions. In these
articles Egghe considered a general h-type index which has a value n if n is the
largest natural number such that the first n publications (ranked according to the
number of received citations) have received at least f(n) citations, with f(n) any
increasing function defined on the strictly positive numbers. His results deal with
increments I-2 and I-1 defined by: I-2(n)-I-1 (n + 1)-I-1 (n) where I-1 (n) = (n +
1)f(n + 1) - nf(n). Our results differ from Egghe's because we also consider I-
k(0), k= 1,2. We, moreover, provide a non-recursive definition of the increment
functions I-k(n) (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Research institutions play an important role in scientific research and
technical innovation. The topical analysis of research institutions in different
countries can facilitate mutual learning and promote potential collaboration. In
this study, we illustrate how an unsupervised artificial neural network technique
Self-Organizing Map (SOM) can be used to visually analyze the research fields of
research institutions. A novel SOM display named Compound Component Plane (CCP) was
presented and applied to determine the institutions which made significant
contributions to the salient research fields. Eighty-seven Chinese and American LIS
institutions and the technical LIS fields were taken as examples. Potential
international and domestic collaborators were identified based upon their research
similarities. An approach of dividing research institutions into clusters was
proposed based on their geometric distances in the SOM display, the U-matrix values
and the most salient research topics they involved. The concepts of swarm
institutions, pivots and landmarks were also defined and their instances were
identified. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Barycenter representation of book publishing internationalization in the
Social Sciences and Humanities
LA English
DT Article
DE Barycenter method; Monographs; Edited books; Social sciences;
Humanities; Internationalization
ID PUBLICATION PATTERNS; COLLABORATION; QUALITY
AB This paper introduces a novel application in bibliometrics of the barycenter
method. Using places of publication barycenters, we measure internationalization of
book publishing in the Social Sciences and Humanities. Based on 2002-2011 data for
Flanders, Belgium, we demonstrate how the geographic center of weight of book
publishing is different for the Social Sciences than for the Humanities. Whereas
the latter still rely predominantly on domestic Flemish and continental European
publishers, the former are firmly Anglo-Saxon oriented. The Humanities, however,
show a more pronounced evolution toward further internationalization. For the
already largely internationally oriented Social Sciences, in most recent years, the
share of British publishers has grown. The barycenter method proves to be a
valuable tool in the representation of research internationalization of book
publications. This is especially the case when applied non-Anglophone countries.

AB This study established a technological impact factor (TIF) derived from journal
impact factor (JlF), which is proposed to evaluate journals from the aspect of
practical innovation. This impact factor mainly examines the influence of journal
articles on patents by calculating the number of patents cited to a journal divided
by the number of articles published in that particular journal. The values of TIF
for five-year (TIF5) and ten-year (TIF10) periods at the journal level and
aggregated TIF values (TIFAGG-3 and TIFAGG-10) at the category level were provided
and compared to the JIF. The results reveal that journals with higher TIF values
showed varied performances in the JCR, while the top ten journals on JIF(5) showed
consistent good performance in TIFs. Journals in three selected categories -
Electrical & Electronic Engineering, Research & Experimental Medicine, and Organic
Chemistry - showed that TIF5 and TIF10, values are not strongly correlated with
JIF5. Thus, TIFs can provide a new indicator for evaluating journals from the
aspect of practical innovation. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We axiomatize the well-known Hirsch index (h-index), which evaluates researcher
productivity and impact on a field, and formalize a new axiom called head-
independence. Under head-independence, a decrease, to some extent, in the number of
citations of "frequently cited papers" has no effect on the index. Together with
symmetry and axiom D, head-independence uniquely characterizes the h-index on a
certain domain of indices. Some relationships between our axiomatization and those
in the literature are also investigated. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Knowledge transfer between science and technology has been studied at micro- and
macro-levels of analysis. This has contributed to the understanding of the
mechanisms and drivers, but actual transfer mechanism and process, be they through
codified or tacit sources, have very rarely been mapped and measured to
completeness and remain, to a large extent, a black box. We develop a novel method
for mapping science-technology flows and introduce 'concept clusters' as an
instrument to do so. Using patent and publication data, we quantitatively and
visually demonstrate the flows of knowledge between academia and industry. We
examine the roles of exogenous and endogenous knowledge sources, and of co-
inventors and co-authors in the application of university-generated knowledge. When
applied to a stylised case, we show that the method is able to trace the linkages
between base knowledge and skill sets and their application to a technology, which
in some instances span over twenty-five years. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB It is widely believed that collaboration is advantageous in science, for
example, with collaboratively written articles tending to attract more citations
than solo articles and strong arguments for the value of interdisciplinary
collaboration. Nevertheless, it is not known whether the same is true for research
that produces books. This article tests whether coauthored scholarly monographs
attract more citations than solo monographs using books published before 2011 from
30 categories in the Web of Science. The results show that solo monographs
numerically dominate collaborative monographs, but give no evidence of a citation
advantage for collaboration on monographs. In contrast, for nearly all these
subjects (28 out of 30) there was a citation advantage for collaboratively produced
journal articles. As a result, research managers and funders should not incentivise
collaborative research in book-based subjects or in research that aims to produce
monographs, but should allow the researchers themselves to freely decide whether to
collaborate or not. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID INTERACTION INFORMATION; MATHEMATICAL-THEORY; COMMUNICATION; MODEL
AB In this paper, we show that an information source composed with n random
variables may be split into 2(n) or 2(n) -1 "states"; therefore, one could compute
the maximum entropy of the source. We derive the efficiency and the unused capacity
of an information source. We demonstrate that in more than two dimensions, the
transmission's variability depends on the system configuration; thus, we determine
the upper and the lower bounds to the mutual information and propose the
transmission power as an indicator of the Triple Helix of university-industry-
government relationships. The transmission power is defined as the fraction of the
total 'configurational information' produced in a system; it appears like the
efficiency of the transmission and may be interpreted as the strength of the
variables dependency, the strength of the synergy between the system's variable or
the strength of information flow within the system. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All

TI Accuracy of simple, initials-based methods for author name
disambiguation
LA English
DT Article
DE Author name disambiguation; Simulation
ID NETWORKS; SCIENCE; MEDLINE
AB There are a number of solutions that perform unsupervised name disambiguation
based on the similarity of bibliographic records or common coauthorship patterns.
Whether the use of these advanced methods, which are often difficult to implement,
is warranted depends on whether the accuracy of the most basic disambiguation
methods, which only use the author's last name and initials, is sufficient for a
particular purpose. We derive realistic estimates for the accuracy of simple,
initials-based methods using simulated bibliographic datasets in which the true
identities of authors are known. Based on the simulations in five diverse
disciplines we find that the first initial method already correctly identifies 97%
of authors. An alternative simple method, which takes all initials into account, is
typically two times less accurate, except in certain datasets that can be
identified by applying a simple criterion. Finally, we introduce a new name-based
method that combines the features of first initial and all initials methods by
implicitly taking into account the last name frequency and the size of the dataset.
This hybrid method reduces the fraction of incorrectly identified authors by 10-30%
over the first initial method. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

LA English

DE Citation distribution; Publication-citation process; Geometric
distribution; Non-linear equations; Quasi h-index; h-Index profile
ID HIRSCH-INDEX
AB From the way that it was initially defined (Hirsch, 2005), the h-index naturally
encourages focus on the most highly cited publications of an. author and this in
turn has led to (predominantly) a rank-based approach to its investigation.
However, Hirsch (2005) and Burrell (2007a) both adopted a frequency-based approach
leading to general conjectures regarding the relationship between the h-index and
the author's publication and citation rates as well as his/her career length. Here
we apply the distributional results of Burrell (2007a, 2013b) to three published
data sets to show that a good estimate of the h-index can often be obtained knowing
only the number of publications and the number of citations. (Exceptions can occur
when an author has one or more "outliers" in the upper tail of the citation
distribution.) In other words, maybe the main body of the distribution determines
the h-index, not the wild wagging of the tail. Furthermore, the simple geometric
distribution turns out to be the key. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Byline hierarchy; Coauthor credit; Harmonic formula; Bibliometric bias;
Parsimony
ID MULTI-AUTHORED PAPERS; H-INDEX; PUBLICATION; CITATION; TEAMS; MODEL
AB In this paper the accuracy of five current approaches to quantifying the byline
hierarchy of a scientific paper is assessed by measuring the ability of each to
explain the variation in a composite empirical dataset Harmonic credit explained
97% of the variation by including information about the number of coauthors and
their position in the byline. In contrast, fractional credit, which ignored the
byline hierarchy by allocating equal credit to all coauthors, explained less than
40% of the variation in the empirical dataset. The nearly 60% discrepancy in
explanatory power between fractional and harmonic credit was accounted for by
equalizing bias associated with the omission of relevant information about
differential coauthor contribution. Including an additional parameter to describe a
continuum of intermediate formulas between fractional and harmonic provided a
negligible or negative gain in predictive accuracy. By comparison, two parametric
models from the bibliometric literature both had an explanatory capacity of
approximately 80%. In conclusion, the results indicate that the harmonic formula
provides a parsimonious solution to the problem of quantifying the byline
hierarchy. Harmonic credit allocation also accommodates specific indications of
departures from the basic byline hierarchy, such as footnoted information stating
that some or all coauthors have contributed equally or indicating the presence of a
senior author. (C) 2013 The Author. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Hirsch's h-index; Scientometrics; Bibliometrics
ID H-INDEX; AXIOMATIC ANALYSIS; HIRSCH-INDEX; OUTPUT
AB In this paper we deal with the problem of aggregating numeric sequences of
arbitrary length that represent e.g. citation records of scientists. Impact
functions are the aggregation operators that express as a single number not only
the quality of individual publications, but also their author's productivity.
We examine some fundamental properties of these aggregation tools. It turns out
that each impact function which always gives indisputable valuations must
necessarily be trivial. Moreover, it is shown that for any set of citation records
in which none is dominated by the other, we may construct an impact function that
gives any a priori-established authors' ordering. Theoretically then, there is
considerable room for manipulation in the hands of decision makers.
We also discuss the differences between the impact function-based and the
multicriteria decision making-based approach to scientific quality management, and
study how the introduction of new properties of impact functions affects the
assessment process. We argue that simple mathematical tools like the h- or g-index
(as well as other bibliometric impact indices) may not necessarily be a good choice
when it comes to assess scientific achievements. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The debate on the role of women in the academic world has focused on various
phenomena that could be at the root of the gender gap seen in many nations.
However, in spite of the ever more collaborative character of scientific research,
the issue of gender aspects in research collaborations has been treated in a
marginal manner. In this article we apply an innovative bibliometric approach based
on the propensity for collaboration by individual academics, which permits
measurement of gender differences in the propensity to collaborate by fields,
disciplines and forms of collaboration: intramural, extramural domestic and
international. The analysis of the scientific production of Italian academics shows
that women researchers register a greater capacity to collaborate in all the forms
analyzed, with the exception of international collaboration, where there is still a
gap in comparison to male colleagues. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

accounts for information in the entire rank-citation profile

ID H-INDEX; DISTRIBUTIONS; UNIVERSALITY; INDICATORS; SCIENTISTS; CAREER
AB We present a simple generalization of Hirsch's h-index, Z = root h(2) + C/root
5, where C is the total number of citations. Z is aimed at correcting the
potentially excessive penalty made by h on a scientist's highly cited papers,
because for the majority of scientists analyzed, we find the excess citation
fraction (C - h(2))/C to be distributed closely around the value 0.75, meaning that
75% of the author's impact is neglected. Additionally, Z is less sensitive to local
changes in a scientist's citation profile, namely perturbations which increase h
while only marginally affecting C. Using real career data for 476 physicists
careers and 488 biologist careers, we analyze both the distribution of Z and the
rank stability of Z with respect to the Hirsch index h and the Egghe index g. We
analyze careers distributed across a wide range of total impact, including top-
cited physicists and biologists for benchmark comparison. In practice, the Z-index
requires the same information needed to calculate h and could be effortlessly
incorporated within career profile databases, such as Google Scholar and
ResearcherID. Because Z incorporates information from the entire publication
profile while being more robust than h and g to local perturbations, we argue that
Z is better suited for ranking comparisons in academic decision-making scenarios
comprising a large number of scientists. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB We address the question how citation-based bibliometric indicators can best be
normalized to ensure fair comparisons between publications from different
scientific fields and different years. In a systematic large-scale empirical
analysis, we compare a traditional normalization approach based on a field
classification system with three source normalization approaches. We pay special
attention to the selection of the publications included in the analysis.
Publications in national scientific journals, popular scientific magazines, and
trade magazines are not included. Unlike earlier studies, we use algorithmically
constructed classification systems to evaluate the different normalization
approaches. Our analysis shows that a source normalization approach based on the
recently introduced idea of fractional citation counting does not perform well. Two
other source normalization approaches generally outperform the classification-
system-based normalization approach that we study. Our analysis therefore offers
considerable support for the use of source-normalized bibliometric indicators. (C)

CITATION; IMPACT
AB The objective of this work was to examine the relationship between attitudes
about publishing across disciplines and the scientific impact of authors. We
conducted a web survey of 1066 authors randomly selected from four disciplines in
the Web of Knowledge: economics, anthropology, water resources and biochemistry
(approximately 250 from each discipline). Authors were asked questions about
publishing norms within their discipline. The h-index of authors was subsequently
calculated from data available from the Web of Knowledge. Authors in biochemistry
had on average twice the h-index of those in economics, anthropology and water
resources. Biochemists had higher expectations about the number of articles
published for hire and promotion, more strongly valued interdisciplinary
publishing, felt the cutting edge of their science was clearer, and had more
defined patterns of author credit assignment than the other disciplines.
Anthropologists exhibited a lower relationship between h-index and the number of
years since their first publication. We conclude that attitudinal differences
between disciplines may lead to differences in the recognition of scientific
findings and the therefore the establishment of normal science. (C) 2013 Elsevier

AB This study assesses whether eleven factors associate with higher impact
research: individual, institutional and international collaboration; journal and
reference impacts; abstract readability; reference and keyword totals; paper,
abstract and title lengths. Authors may have some control over these factors and
hence this information may help them to conduct and publish higher impact research.
These factors have been previously researched but with partially conflicting
findings. A simultaneous assessment of these eleven factors for Biology and
Biochemistry, Chemistry and Social Sciences used a single negative binomial-logit
hurdle model estimating the percentage change in the mean citation counts per unit
of increase or decrease in the predictor variables. The journal Impact Factor was
found to significantly associate with increased citations in all three areas. The
impact and the number of cited references and their average citation impact also
significantly associate with higher article citation impact. Individual and
international teamwork give a citation advantage in Biology and Biochemistry and
Chemistry but inter-institutional teamwork is not important in any of the three
subject areas. Abstract readability is also not significant or of no practical
significance. Among the article size features, abstract length significantly
associates with increased citations but the number of keywords, title length and
paper length are insignificant or of no practical significance. In summary, at
least some aspects of collaboration, journal and document properties significantly
associate with higher citations. The results provide new and particularly strong
statistical evidence that the authors should consider publishing in high impact
journals, ensure that they do not omit relevant references, engage in the widest
possible team working, when appropriate, and write extensive abstracts. A new
finding is that whilst is seems to be useful to collaborate and to collaborate
internationally, there seems to be no particular need to collaborate with other
institutions within the same country. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We address issues concerning what one may learn from how citation instances are
distributed in scientific articles. We visualize and analyze patterns of citation
distributions in the full text of 350 articles published in the Journal of
Informetrics. In particular, we visualize and analyze the distributions of
citations in articles that are organized in a commonly seen four-section structure,
namely, introduction, method, results, and conclusions (IMRC). We examine the
locations of citations to the groundbreaking h-index paper by Hirsch in 2005 and
how patterns associated with citation locations evolve over time. The results show
that citations are highly concentrated in the first section of an article. The
density of citations in the first section is about three times higher than that in
subsequent sections. The distributions of citations to highly cited papers are even
more uneven. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB There are many indicators of journal quality and prestige. Although acceptance
rates are discussed anecdotally, there has been little systematic exploration of
the relationship between acceptance rates and other journal measures. This study
examines the variability of acceptance rates for a set of 5094 journals in five
disciplines and the relationship between acceptance rates and JCR measures for 1301
journals. The results show statistically significant differences in acceptance
rates by discipline, country affiliation of the editor, and number of reviewers per
article. Negative correlations are found between acceptance rates and citation-
based indicators. Positive correlations are found with journal age. These
relationships are most pronounced in the most selective journals and vary by
discipline. Open access journals were found to have statistically significantly
higher acceptance rates than non-open access journals. Implications in light of
changes in the scholarly communication system are discussed. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Publishing in scholarly peer reviewed journals usually entails long delays from
submission to publication. In part this is due to the length of the peer review
process and in part because of the dominating tradition of publication in issues,
earlier a necessity of paper-based publishing, which creates backlogs of
manuscripts waiting in line. The delays slow the dissemination of scholarship and
can provide a significant burden on the academic careers of authors.
Using a stratified random sample we studied average publishing delays in 2700
papers published in 135 journals sampled from the Scopus citation index. The
shortest overall delays occur in science technology and medical (STM) fields and
the longest in social science, arts/humanities and business/economics.
Business/economics with a delay of 18 months took twice as long as chemistry with a
9 month average delay. Analysis of the variance indicated that by far the largest
amount of variance in the time between submission and acceptance was among articles
within a journal as compared with journals, disciplines or the size of the journal.
For the time between acceptance and publication most of the variation in delay can
be accounted for by differences between specific journals. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Given the growing use of impact metrics in the evaluation of scholars, journals,
academic institutions, and even countries, there is a critical need for means to
compare scientific impact across disciplinary boundaries. Unfortunately, citation-
based metrics are strongly biased by diverse field sizes and publication and
citation practices. As a result, we have witnessed an explosion in the number of
newly proposed metrics that claim to be "universal." However, there is currently no
way to objectively assess whether a normalized metric can actually compensate for
disciplinary bias. We introduce a new method to assess the universality of any
scholarly impact metric, and apply it to evaluate a number of established metrics.
We also define a very simple new metric h(s), which proves to be universal, thus
allowing to compare the impact of scholars across scientific disciplines. These
results move us closer to a formal methodology in the measure of scholarly impact.

AB For comparisons of citation impacts across fields and overtime, bibliometricians
normalize the observed citation counts with reference to an expected citation
value. Percentile-based approaches have been proposed as a non-parametric
alternative to parametric central-tendency statistics. Percentiles are based on an
ordered set of citation counts in a reference set, whereby the fraction of papers
at or below the citation counts of a focal paper is used as an indicator for its
relative citation impact in the set. In this study, we pursue two related
objectives: (I) although different percentile-based approaches have been developed,
an approach is hitherto missing that satisfies a number of criteria such as scaling
of the percentile ranks from zero (all other papers perform better) to 100 (all
other papers perform worse), and solving the problem with tied citation ranks
unambiguously. We introduce a new citation-rank approach having these properties,
namely P100; (2) we compare the reliability of P100 empirically with other
percentile-based approaches, such as the approaches developed by the SCImago group,
the Centre for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS), and Thomson Reuters
(InCites), using all papers published in 1980 in Thomson Reuters Web of Science
(WoS). How accurately can the different approaches predict the long-term citation
impact in 2010 (in year 31) using citation impact measured in previous time windows
(years 1-30)? The comparison of the approaches shows that the method used by
InCites overestimates citation impact (because of using the highest percentile rank
when papers are assigned to more than a single subject category) whereas the
SCImago indicator shows higher power in predicting the long-term citation impact on
the basis of citation rates in early years. Since the results show a disadvantage
in this predictive ability for P100 against the other approaches, there is still
room for further improvements. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this paper, we develop a novel methodology within the IDCP measuring
framework for comparing normalization procedures based on different classification
systems of articles into scientific disciplines. Firstly, we discuss the properties
of two rankings, based on a graphical and a numerical approach, for the comparison
of any pair of normalization procedures using a single classification system for
evaluation purposes. Secondly, when the normalization procedures are based on two
different classification systems, we introduce two new rankings following the
graphical and the numerical approaches. Each ranking is based on a double test that
assesses the two normalization procedures in terms of the two classification
systems on which they depend. Thirdly, we also compare the two normalization
procedures using a third, independent classification system for evaluation
purposes. In the empirical part of the paper we use: (i) a classification system
consisting of 219 sub-fields identified with the Web of Science subject-categories;
an aggregate classification system consisting of 19 broad fields, as well as a
systematic and a random assignment of articles to sub-fields with the aim of
maximizing or minimizing differences across sub-fields; (ii) four normalization
procedures that use the field or sub-field mean citations of the above four
classification systems as normalization factors; and (iii) a large dataset, indexed
by Thomson Reuters, in which 4.4 million articles published in 1998-2003 with a
five-year citation window are assigned to sub-fields using a fractional approach.
The substantive results concerning the comparison of the four normalization
procedures indicate that the methodology can be useful in practice. (C) 2013

AB The importance of a scientific journal is usually established by considering the
number of citations received by the papers that the journal publishes. In this way,
the number of citations received by a scientific journal can be considered as a
measure of the total production of the journal. In this paper, in order to obtain
measures of the efficiency in the production process, the approach provided by
stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) is considered, and econometric models are
proposed. These models estimate a frontier production, which is the maximum
achievable number of citations to the journal based on its resources. The
efficiency can then be measured by considering the difference between the actual
production and the estimated frontier. This approach is applied to the measurement
of the productive efficiency of the journals of the JCR social sciences edition
database, which belong simultaneously to the areas of "economics" and "social
sciences, mathematical methods". (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Internationally co-authored papers are known to have more citation impact than
nationally co-authored paper, on average. However, the question of whether there
are systematic differences between pairs of collaborating countries in terms of the
citation impact of their joint output, has remained unanswered. On the basis of all
scientific papers published in 2000 and co-authored by two or more European
countries, we show that citation impact increases with the geographical distance
between the collaborating counties. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Alphabetization and the skewing of first authorship towards last names
early in the alphabet
LA English
DT Article
DE Scientometrics; Research evaluation; Collaboration
ID ORDER; PUBLICATION; ECONOMICS; QUALITY; SURNAME; CREDIT
AB The practice of listing co-author surnames in alphabetical order, irrespective
of their contribution, can make it difficult to effectively allocate research
credit to authors. This article compares the percentages of articles with co-
authors in alphabetical order (alphabetization) for two-author, three-author and
four-author articles in eighteen social sciences in 1995 and 2010 to assess how
widespread this practice is. There is some degree of alphabetization in all
disciplines except one but the level varies substantially between disciplines. This
level is increasing slightly over time, on average, but it has increased
substantially in a few disciplines and decreased in others, showing that the
practice of alphabetization is not fading away. A high correlation between
alphabetical order and the proportion of first authors near the beginning of the
alphabet confirms that high percentages of alphabetical order could affect the
appropriate allocation of research credit. Similar patterns were found for science
and the humanities. Finally, since some degree of alphabetization is almost
universal in social science disciplines, this practice may be affecting careers
throughout the social sciences and hence seems indefensible. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

TI The distribution of references across texts: Some implications for
citation analysis
LA English
DT Article
DE Content-based citation analysis; Citation; Mentioning; Citation analysis
ID SCIENCE; CLASSIFICATION; INFORMATION; INDEXES
AB In citation network analysis, complex behavior is reduced to a simple edge,
namely, node A cites node B. The implicit assumption is that A is giving credit to,
or acknowledging, B. It is also the case that the contributions of all citations
are treated equally, even though some citations appear multiply in a text and
others appear only once. In this study, we apply text-mining algorithms to a
relatively large dataset (866 information science articles containing 32,496
bibliographic references) to demonstrate the differential contributions made by
references. We (1) look at the placement of citations across the different sections
of a journal article, and (2) identify highly cited works using two different
counting methods (CountOne and CountX). We find that (1) the most highly cited
works appear in the Introduction and Literature Review sections of citing papers,
and (2) the citation rankings produced by CountOne and CountX differ. That is to
say, counting the number of times a bibliographic reference is cited in a paper
rather than treating all references the same no matter how many times they are
invoked in the citing article reveals the differential contributions made by the
cited works to the citing paper. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

journal impact factor

ID H-INDEX; INDICATORS; SCIENCE; FIELDS; TERMS; TOOL
AB Journal metrics are employed for the assessment of scientific scholar journals
from a general bibliometric perspective. In this context, the Thomson Reuters
journal impact factors (JIFs) are the citation-based indicators most used. The 2-
year journal impact factor (2-JIF) counts citations to one and two year old
articles, while the 5-year journal impact factor (5-JIF) counts citations from one
to five year old articles. Nevertheless, these indicators are not comparable among
fields of science for two reasons: (i) each field has a different impact maturity
time, and (ii) because of systematic differences in publication and citation
behavior across disciplines. In fact, the 5-JIF firstly appeared in the journal
Citation Reports OCR) in 2007 with the purpose of making more comparable impacts in
fields in which impact matures slowly. However, there is not an optimal fixed
impact maturity time valid for all the fields. In some of them two years provides a
good performance whereas in others three or more years are necessary. Therefore,
there is a problem when comparing a journal from a field in which impact matures
slowly with a journal from a field in which impact matures rapidly. In this work,
we propose the 2-year maximum journal impact factor (2M-JIF), a new impact
indicator that considers the 2-year rolling citation time window of maximum impact
instead of the previous 2-year time window. Finally, an empirical application
comparing 2-JIF, 5-JIF, and 2M-JIF shows that the maximum rolling target window
reduces the between-group variance with respect to the within-group variance in a
random sample of about six hundred journals from eight different fields. (C) 2013

AB Introducing and studying two types of time series, referred to as R1 and R2, we
try to enrich the set of time series available for time dependent informetric
studies. In a first part we focus on mathematical properties, while in a second
part we check if these properties are visible in real data. This practical
application uses data in the social sciences related to top Chinese universities.
R1 sequences always increase over time, tending relatively fast to one, while R2
sequences have a decreasing tendency tending to zero in practical cases. They can
best be used over relatively short periods of time. R1 sequences can be used to
detect the rate with which cumulative data increase, while R2 sequences detect the
relative rate of development.
The article ends by pointing out that these time series can be used to compare
innovative activities in firms. Clearly, this investigation is just a first
attempt. More studies are needed, including comparisons with other related
sequences. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Counting method; University ranking; Research evaluation; Paper count;
Citation count
ID PUBLICATION; PRODUCTIVITY
AB In an age of intensifying scientific collaboration, the counting of papers by
multiple authors has become an important methodological issue in scientometric
based research evaluation. Especially, how counting methods influence institutional
level research evaluation has not been studied in existing literatures. In this
study, we selected the top 300 universities in physics in the 2011 HEEACT Ranking
as our study subjects. We compared the university rankings generated from four
different counting methods (i.e. whole counting, straight counting using first
author, straight counting using corresponding author, and fractional counting) to
show how paper counts and citation counts and the subsequent university ranks were
affected by counting method selection. The counting was based on the 1988-2008
physics papers records indexed in ISI WoS. We also observed how paper and citation
counts were inflated by whole counting. The results show that counting methods
affected the universities in the middle range more than those in the upper or lower
ranges. Citation counts were also more affected than paper counts. The correlation
between the rankings generated from whole counting and those from the other methods
were low or negative in the middle ranges. Based on the findings, this study
concluded that straight counting and fractional counting were better choices for
paper count and citation count in the institutional level research evaluation. (C)

AB This paper presents a comparative analysis of the structure of national higher
education networks in six European countries using interlinking data. We show that
national HE systems display a common core-periphery structure, which we explain by
the lasting reputational differences in science, as well as the process of
expansion and integration of HE systems. Furthermore, we demonstrate that
centrality in national networks (coreness) is associated with organizational
characteristics, reflecting that interlinking is motivated by access to resources
and the status of the organizations concerned, and that national policies impact
network structures by influencing the level of inequality in the distribution of
resources and status. Finally, we show that, as an outcome of the core-periphery
structure, the strength of ties between two HEIs is largely determined by their
individual coreness, while the impact of distance is too small-scale to alter the
network structure generated by organizational attributes. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

ID HIGHLY CITED PAPERS; INDICATORS; INDEX
AB Is more always better? We address this question in the context of bibliometric
indices that aim to assess the scientific impact of individual researchers by
counting their number of highly cited publications. We propose a simple model in
which the number of citations of a publication depends not only on the scientific
impact of the publication but also on other 'random' factors. Our model indicates
that more need not always be better. It turns out that the most influential
researchers may have a systematically lower performance, in terms of highly cited
publications, than some of their less influential colleagues. The model also
suggests an improved way of counting highly cited publications. (C) 2013 Elsevier

TI A longitudinal comparison of citation rates and growth among open access
journals

ID SCOPUS
AB The study documents the growth in the number of journals and articles along with
the increase in normalized citation rates of open access (OA) journals listed in
the Scopus bibliographic database between 1999 and 2010. Longitudinal statistics on
growth in journals/articles and citation rates are broken down by funding model,
discipline, and whether the journal was launched or had converted to OA. The data
were retrieved from the websites of SCIMago Journal and Country Rank
(journal/article counts), JournalM3trics (SNIP2 values), Scopus (journal
discipline) and Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) (OA and funding status).
OA journals/articles have grown much faster than subscription journals but still
make up less that 12% of the journals in Scopus. Two-year citation averages for
journals funded by Article Processing Charges (APCs) have reached the same level as
subscription journals. Citation averages of OA journals funded by other means
continue to lag well behind OA journals funded by APCs and subscription journals.
We hypothesize this is less an issue of quality than due to the fact that such
journals are commonly published in languages other than English and tend to be
located outside the four major publishing countries. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All

ID JOURNAL DIFFUSION
AB Collaboration can be described using layered systems such as the article-author-
institute-country structure. These structures can be considered 'cascades' or
'chains' of bipartite networks. We introduce a framework for characterizing and
studying the intensity of collaboration between entities at a given level (e.g.,
between institutions). Specifically, we define the notions of significant,
essential and vital nodes, and significant, essential and vital sub paths to
describe the spread of knowledge through collaboration in such systems. Based on
these notions, we introduce relative and absolute proper essential node (PEN)
centrality as indicators of a node's importance for diffusion of knowledge through
collaboration.
We illustrate these concepts in an illustrative example and show how they can be
applied using a small real-world example. Since collaboration implies knowledge
sharing, it can be considered a special form of knowledge diffusion. (C) 2013

AB In our previous study (Wang et al., 2012), we analyzed scientists' working
timetable of 3 countries, using realtime downloading data of scientific
literatures. In this paper, we make a through analysis about global scientists'
working habits. Top 30 countries/territories from Europe, Asia, Australia, North
America, Latin America and Africa are selected as representatives and analyzed in
detail. Regional differences for scientists' working habits exists in different
countries. Besides different working cultures, social factors could affect
scientists' research activities and working patterns. Nevertheless, a common
conclusion is that scientists today are often working overtime. Although scientists
may feel engaged and fulfilled about their hard working, working too much still
warns us to reconsider the work life balance. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

ID LIBRARY CIRCULATION MODEL; CITATION DISTRIBUTION; H-INDEX
AB Empirical analysis of the relationship between the impact factor - as measured
by the average number of citations - and the proportion of uncited material in a
collection dates back at least to van Leeuwen and Moed (2005) where graphical
presentations revealed striking patterns. Recently Hsu and Huang (2012) have
proposed a simple functional relationship. Here it is shown that the general
features of these observed regularities are predicted by a well-established
informetric model which enables us to derive a theoretical van Leeuwen Moed lower
bound. We also question some of the arguments of Hsu and Huang (2012) and Egghe
(2013) while various issues raised by Egghe (2008, 2013) are also addressed. (C)

AB In recent years there has been a sharp increase in collaborations among scholars
and there are studies on the effects of scientific collaboration on scholars'
performance. This study examines the hypothesis that geographically diverse
scientific collaboration is associated with research impact. Here, the approach is
differentiated from other studies by: (a) focusing on publications rather than
researchers or institutes; (b) considering the geographical diversity of authors of
each publication; (c) considering the average number of citations a publication
receives per year (time-based normalization of citations) as a surrogate for its
impact; and (d) not focusing on a specific country (developed or developing) or
region. Analysis of the collected bibliometric data shows that a publication impact
is significantly and positively associated with all related geographical
collaboration indicators. But publication impact has a stronger association with
the numbers of external collaborations at department and institution levels (inter-
departmental and inter-institutional collaborations) compared to internal
collaborations. Conversely, national collaboration correlates better with impact
than international collaboration. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A new method of assessment of scientific papers, scientists, and scientific
institutions was defined. The significance of a paper was assessed by the
definition of the largest (the most prestigious) set, including that paper in its
h-core. The sets of papers were defined by affiliation (country, city, university,
department) or by subject (branches and sub-branches of science, journal). The
inclusion of a paper in the h-core of certain set(s) was used as an indicator of
the significance of that paper, and of the scientific output of its author(s), of
their scientific institution(s), etc. An analogous procedure was used to assess the
contribution of an individual to the scientific output of his/her scientific
institution, branch of science, etc. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Unlike Web hyperlink data, Web traffic data have not yet been the focus of
considerable study in Webometrics research. The relationships between Web traffic
data and academic/business performance measures have not been as firmly established
as the relationships between Web hyperlink data and such performance measures.
Although various traffic data sources exist, few studies have examined and compared
their relative merits. We carried out a study that aimed to address this lack. We
selected groups of universities and businesses from the U.S. and China and
collected their Web traffic data from three sources: Alexa Internet, Google Trends
for Websites, and Compete. We found significant correlations between Web traffic
data and organizational performance measures, specifically academic quality for
universities and financial variables for businesses. We also examined the
characteristics of the three data sources and compared their usefulness. We found
that Alexa Internet outperformed the others. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB To take into account the impact of the different bibliometric features of
scientific fields and different size of both the publication set evaluated and the
set used as reference standard, two new impact indicators are introduced. The
Percentage Rank Position (PRP) indicator relates the ordinal rank position of the
article assessed to the total number of papers in the publishing journal. The
publications in the publishing journal are ranked by the decreasing citation
frequency. The Relative Elite Rate (RER) indicator relates the number of citations
obtained by the article assessed to the mean citation rate of the papers in the
elite set of the publishing journal. The indices can be preferably calculated from
the data of the publications in the elite set of journal papers of individuals,
teams, institutes or countries. The number of papers in the elite set is calculated
by the equation: P(pi(nu))=(10 log P) - 10, where P is the total number of papers.
The mean of the PRP and RER indicators of the journal papers assessed may be
applied for comparing the eminence of publication sets across fields. (C) 2013

DE h-Index; Social impact
AB A variety of bibliometric measures have been proposed to quantify the impact of
researchers and their work The h-index is a notable and widely used example which
aims to improve over simple metrics such as raw counts of papers or citations.
However, a limitation of this measure is that it considers authors in isolation and
does not account for contributions through a collaborative team. To address this,
we propose a natural variant that we dub the Social h-index. The idea is to
redistribute the h-index score to reflect an individual's impact on the research
community. In addition to describing this new measure, we provide examples, discuss
its properties, and contrast with other measures. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

ID PERCENTILE RANK CLASSES; BIBLIOMETRICS; COUNTS
AB Bibliometrics has become an indispensable tool in the evaluation of institutions
(in the natural and life sciences). An evaluation report without bibliometric data
has become a rarity. However, evaluations are often required to measure the
citation impact of publications in very recent years in particular. As a citation
analysis is only meaningful for publications for which a citation window of at
least three years is guaranteed, very recent years cannot (should not) be included
in the analysis. This study presents various options for dealing with this problem
in statistical analysis. The publications from two universities from 2000 to 2011
are used as a sample dataset (n = 2652, univ 1 = 1484 and univ 2 = 1168). One
option is to show the citation impact data (percentiles) in a graphic and to use a
line for percentiles regressed on 'distant' publication years (with confidence
interval) showing the trend for the 'very recent' publication years. Another way of
dealing with the problem is to work with the concept of samples and populations.
The third option (very related to the second) is the application of the
counterfactual concept of causality. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Scientific collaboration commonly takes place in a global and competitive
environment. Coalitions and consortia are formed among universities, companies and
research institutes to apply for research grants and to perform joint projects. In
such a competitive environment, individual institutes may be strategic partners or
competitors. Measures to determine partner importance have practical applications
such as comparison and rating of competitors, reputation evaluation or performance
evaluation of companies and institutes. Many network-centric metrics exist to
measure the important of individuals or companies in social and collaborative
networks. Here we present a novel context-based metric to measure the importance of
partners in scientific collaboration networks. Well-established graph models such
as the notion of hubs and authorities provide the basis for this work and are
systematically extended to a flexible, context-aware network importance measure.

ID BETWEENNESS CENTRALITY; NETWORK ANALYSIS; DIFFUSION
AB Q-measures are network indicators that gauge a node's brokerage role between
different groups in the network. Previous studies have focused on their definition
for different network types and their practical application. Little attention has,
however, been paid to their theoretical and mathematical characterization. In this
article we contribute to a better understanding of Q-measures by studying some of
their mathematical properties in the context of unweighted, undirected networks. An
external Q-measure complementing the previously defined local and global Q-measure
is introduced. We prove a number of relations between the values of the global, the
local and the external Q-measure and betweenness centrality, and show how the
global Q-measure can be rewritten as a convex decomposition of the local and
external Q-measures. Furthermore, we formally characterize when Q-measures obtain
their maximal value. It turns out that this is only possible in a limited number of
very specific circumstances. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Wide differences in publication and citation practices make impossible the
direct comparison of raw citation counts across scientific disciplines. Recent
research has studied new and traditional normalization procedures aimed at
suppressing as much as possible these disproportions in citation numbers among
scientific domains. Using the recently introduced IDCP (Inequality due to
Differences in Citation Practices) method, this paper rigorously tests the
performance of six cited-side normalization procedures based on the Thomson Reuters
classification system consisting of 172 sub-fields. We use six yearly datasets from
1980 to 2004, with widely varying citation windows from the publication year to May
2011. The main findings are the following three. Firstly, as observed in previous
research, within each year the shapes of sub-field citation distributions are
strikingly similar. This paves the way for several normalization procedures to
perform reasonably well in reducing the effect on citation inequality of
differences in citation practices. Secondly, independently of the year of
publication and the length of the citation window, the effect of such differences
represents about 13% of total citation inequality. Thirdly, a recently introduced
two-parameter normalization scheme outperforms the other normalization procedures
over the entire period, reducing citation disproportions to a level very close to
the minimum achievable given the data and the classification system. However, the
traditional procedure of using sub-field mean citations as normalization factors
yields also good results. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper examines the structural patterns of networks of internationally co-
authored SCI papers in the domain of research driven by big data and provides an
empirical analysis of semantic patterns of paper titles. The results based on data
collected from the DVD version of the 2011 SCI database identify the U.S. as the
most central country, followed by the U.K., Germany, France, Italy, Australia, the
Netherlands, Canada, and Spain, in that order. However, some countries (e.g.,
Portugal) with low degree centrality occupied relatively central positions in terms
of betweenness centrality. The results of the semantic network analysis suggest
that internationally co-authored papers tend to focus on primary technologies,
particularly in terms of programming and related database issues. The results show
that a combination of words and locations can provide a richer representation of an
emerging field of science than the sum of the two separate representations. (C)

AB We use a trading metaphor to study knowledge transfer in the sciences as well as
the social sciences. The metaphor comprises four dimensions: (a) Discipline Self-
dependence, (b) Knowledge Exports/Imports, (c) Scientific Trading Dynamics, and (d)
Scientific Trading Impact. This framework is applied to a dataset of 221 Web of
Science subject categories. We find that: (i) the Scientific Trading Impact and
Dynamics of materials science and transportation science have increased; (ii)
biomedical disciplines, physics, and mathematics are significant knowledge
exporters, as is statistics and probability; (iii) in the social sciences,
economics, business, psychology, management, and sociology are important knowledge
exporters; and (iv) Discipline Self-dependence is associated with specialized
domains which have ties to professional practice (e.g., law, ophthalmology,
dentistry, oral surgery and medicine, psychology, psychoanalysis, veterinary
sciences, and nursing). (c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

PUBLICATIONS; FREQUENCY; QUALITY; SUCCESS
AB Analysis of 131 publications during 2006-2007 by staff of the School of
Environmental Science and Management at Southern Cross University reveals that the
journal impact factor, article length and type (i.e., article or review), and
journal self-citations affect the citations accrued to 2012. Authors seeking to be
well cited should aim to write comprehensive and substantial review articles, and
submit them to journals with a high impact factor which has previously carried
articles on the topic. Nonetheless, strategic placement of articles is
complementary to, and no substitute for careful crafting of good quality research.
Evidence remains equivocal regarding the contribution of an author's prior
publication success (h-index) and of open-access journals. Crown Copyright (c) 2012

CITATIONS; SCIENCE; PAPER
AB The SNIP (source normalized impact per paper) indicator is an indicator of the
citation impact of scientific journals. The indicator, introduced by Henk Moed in
2010, is included in Elsevier's Scopus database. The SNIP indicator uses a source
normalized approach to correct for differences in citation practices between
scientific fields. The strength of this approach is that it does not require a
field classification system in which the boundaries of fields are explicitly
defined.
In this paper, a number of modifications that were recently made to the SNIP
indicator are explained, and the advantages of the resulting revised SNIP indicator
are pointed out. It is argued that the original SNIP indicator has some
counterintuitive properties, and it is shown mathematically that the revised SNIP
indicator does not have these properties. Empirically, the differences between the
original SNIP indicator and the revised one turn out to be relatively small,
although some systematic differences can be observed. Relations with other source
normalized indicators proposed in the literature are discussed as well. (c) 2012

ID PUBLICATION; IMPACT; QUALITY
AB The data of F1000 and InCites provide us with the unique opportunity to
investigate the relationship between peers' ratings and bibliometric metrics on a
broad and comprehensive data set with high-quality ratings. F1000 is a post-
publication peer review system of the biomedical literature. The comparison of
metrics with peer evaluation has been widely acknowledged as a way of validating
metrics. Based on the seven indicators offered by InCites, we analyzed the validity
of raw citation counts (Times Cited, 2nd Generation Citations, and 2nd Generation
Citations per Citing Document), normalized indicators (journal Actual/Expected
Citations, Category Actual/Expected Citations, and Percentile in Subject Area), and
a journal based indicator (Journal Impact Factor). The data set consists of 125
papers published in 2008 and belonging to the subject category cell biology or
immunology. As the results show, Percentile in Subject Area achieves the highest
correlation with F1000 ratings; we can assert that for further three other
indicators (Times Cited, 2nd Generation Citations, and Category Actual/Expected
Citations) the "true" correlation with the ratings reaches at least a medium effect
size. (c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Hypes occur in every domain of human behavior, including scientific research. We
show in this contribution that journals and authors who studied the h-index
benefited in terms of short-term citations. As, moreover, the introduction of the
h-index is more a 'clever find' than a first rate intellectual achievement, its
rise can be compared to a stock market bubble. (c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

TI Low-cost evaluation techniques for information retrieval systems: A
review
LA English
DT Review
DE Retrieval evaluation; Effectiveness metrics; Relevance judgment; Test
collection; Pooling
AB For a system-based information retrieval evaluation, test collection model still
remains as a costly task. Producing relevance judgments is an expensive, time
consuming task which has to be performed by human assessors. It is not viable to
assess the relevancy of every single document in a corpus against each topic for a
large collection. In an experimental-based environment, partial judgment on the
basis of a pooling method is created to substitute a complete assessment of
documents for relevancy. Due to the increasing number of documents, topics, and
retrieval systems, the need to perform low-cost evaluations while obtaining
reliable results is essential. Researchers are seeking techniques to reduce the
costs of experimental IR evaluation process by the means of reducing the number of
relevance judgments to be performed or even eliminating them while still obtaining
reliable results. In this paper, various state-of-the-art approaches in performing
low-cost retrieval evaluation are discussed under each of the following categories;
selecting the best sets of documents to be judged; calculating evaluation measures,
both, robust to incomplete judgments; statistical inference of evaluation metrics;
inference of judgments on relevance, query selection; techniques to test the
reliability of the evaluation and reusability of the constructed collections; and
other alternative methods to pooling. This paper is intended to link the reader to
the corpus of 'must read' papers in the area of low-cost evaluation of IR systems.

AB Academic productivity and research funding have been hot topics in biomedical
research. While publications and their citations are popular indicators of academic
productivity, there has been no rigorous way to quantify co-authors' relative
contributions. This has seriously compromised quantitative studies on the
relationship between academic productivity and research funding. Here we apply an
axiomatic approach and associated bibliometric measures to revisit a recent study
by Ginther et al. (Ginther et al., 2011a,b) in which the probability of receiving a
U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) R01 award was analyzed with respect to the
applicant's race/ethnicity. Our results provide new insight and suggest that there
is no significant racial bias in the NIH review process, in contrast to the
conclusion from the study by D. K. Ginther et al. Our axiomatic approach has a
potential to be widely used for scientific assessment and management. (c) 2012

AB China's status as a scientific power, particularly in the emerging area of
nanotechnology, has become widely accepted in the global scientific community. The
role of knowledge spillover in China's nanotechnology development is generally
assumed, albeit without much convincing evidence. Very little has been investigated
on the different mechanisms of knowledge spillover. Utilizing both cross-sectional
data and longitudinal data of 77 Chinese nanoscientists' publications, this study
aims to differentiate individual effects from the effect of international
collaboration on the research performance of Chinese researchers. The study finds
evidence in support of the "birds of a feather flock together" argument - that
China's best scientists collaborate at international level. It also finds that
collaboration across national boundaries has a consistently positive effect on
China's nano research quality with a time-decaying pattern. Language turns out to
be the most influential factor impacting the quality or visibility of Chinese nano
research. Policy implications on research evaluation, human capital management, and
public research and development allocation are also discussed in the end. (c) 2012

AB We introduce archetypal analysis as a tool to describe and categorize
scientists. This approach identifies typical characteristics of extreme
('archetypal') values in a multivariate data set. These positive or negative
contextual attributes can be allocated to each scientist under investigation. In
our application, we use a sample of seven bibliometric indicators for 29,083
economists obtained from the RePEc database and identify six archetypes. These are
mainly characterized by ratios of published work and citations. We discuss
applications and limitations of this approach. Finally, we assign relative shares
of the identified archetypes to each economist in our sample. (c) 2012 Elsevier

AB Since its introduction, the Journal Impact Factor has probably been the most
extensively adopted bibliometric indicator. Notwithstanding its well-known
strengths and limits, it is still widely misused as a tool for evaluation, well
beyond the purposes it was intended for. In order to shed further light on its
nature, the present work studies how the correlation between the Journal Impact
Factor and the (time-weighed) article Mean Received Citations (intended as a
measure of journal performance) has evolved through time. It focuses on a sample of
hard sciences and social sciences journals from the 1999 to 2010 time period.
Correlation coefficients (Pearson's Coefficients as well as Spearman's Coefficients
and Kendall's tau(alpha)) are calculated and then tested against several null
hypotheses. The results show that in most cases Journal Impact Factors and their
yearly variations do not display a strong correlation with citedness. Differences
also exist among scientific areas. (c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The patterns of scientific collaboration have been frequently investigated in
terms of complex networks without reference to time evolution. In the present work,
we derive collaborative networks (from the arXiv repository) parameterized along
time. By defining the concept of affine group, we identify several interesting
trends in scientific collaboration, including the fact that the average size of the
affine groups grows exponentially, while the number of authors increases as a power
law. We were therefore able to identify, through extrapolation, the possible date
when a single affine group is expected to emerge. Characteristic collaboration
patterns were identified for each researcher, and their analysis revealed that
larger affine groups tend to be less stable. (c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

LA English
DT Article
DE Citation analysis; Hirsch index; Highly-cited-publications
ID SCIENTIFIC IMPACT; CITATIONS
AB The arbitrariness of the h-index becomes evident, when one requires q x h
instead of h citations as the threshold for the definition of the index, thus
changing the size of the core of the most influential publications of a dataset. I
analyze the citation records of 26 physicists in order to determine how much the
prefactor q influences the ranking. Likewise, the arbitrariness of the highly-
cited-publications indicator is due to the threshold value, given either as an
absolute number of citations or as a percentage of highly cited papers. The
analysis of the 26 citation records shows that the changes in the rankings in
dependence on these thresholds are rather large and comparable with the respective
changes for the h-index. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI A mathematical characterization of the Hirsch-index by means of minimal
increments
LA English
DT Article
DE Hirsch-index; h-Index; Characterization; Increment
AB The minimum configuration to have a h-index equal to h is h papers each having h
citations, hence h(2) citations in total. To increase the h-index to h + 1 we
minimally need (h + 1)(2) citations, an increment of I-1(h) = 2h + 1. The latter
number increases with 2 per unit increase of h. This increment of the second order
is denoted I-2(h) =2.
If we define I-1 and I-2 for a general Hirsch configuration (say n papers each
having f(n) citations) we calculate I-1(f) and I-2(f) similarly as for the h-index.
We characterize all functions f for which I-2(f) = 2 and show that this can be
obtained for functions f(n) different from the h-index. We show that f(n) = n (i.e.
the h-index) if and only if I-2(f) = 2, f(1) = 1 and f(2) = 2.
We give a similar characterization for the threshold index (where n papers have
a constant number C of citations). Here we deal with second order increments I-2(f)
= 0. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The purpose of this paper is to analyse and describe the topological properties
of the institutional and national collaboration network from the profiles extracted
from Google Scholar Citations (GSC). 19,912 unique profiles with "co-authors" were
obtained from a web crawl performed in March 2012. Several statistical and network
analysis techniques were used to map and analyse these collaboration relationships
at the country and institution level. Results show that The United States dominates
the world scientific map and that every research institution is grouped by
national, geographical and cultural criteria. A clustering phenomenon based on the
self-similarity and fractal properties of scale-free networks is also observed. We
conclude that GSC is a suitable tool for collaboration studies only at macro level
between countries and institutions. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study describes the meaning of and the formula for S-index, which is a
novel evaluation index based on the number of citations of each article in a
particular journal and the rank of the article according to the number of
citations. This study compares S-index with Impact Factor (IF), which is the most
well-known evaluation index, using the Korea Citation Index data. It is shown that
S-index is positively correlated with the number of articles published in a
journal. Tapered h-index (h(T)-index), which is based on all articles of a journal
like S-index, is compared with S-index. It is shown that there is a very strong
positive correlation between S-index and h(T)-index. Although S-index is similar to
h(T-)index, S-index has a slightly better differentiating power and ranks the
journal with evenly cited articles higher. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB In this paper we provide the reader with a visual representation of
relationships among the impact of book chapters indexed in the Book Citation Index
using information gain values and published by different academic publishers in
specific disciplines. The impact of book chapters can be characterized
statistically by citations histograms. For instance, we can compute the probability
of occurrence of book chapters with a number of citations in different intervals
for each academic publisher. We predict the similarity between two citation
histograms based on the amount of relative information between such
characterizations. We observe that the citation patterns of book chapters follow a
Lotkaian distribution. This paper describes the structure of the Book Citation
Index using 'heliocentric clockwise maps' which allow the reader not only to
determine the grade of similarity of a given academic publisher indexed in the Book
Citation Index with a specific discipline according to their citation distribution,
but also to easily observe the general structure of a discipline, identifying the
publishers with higher impact and output. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper addresses emerging trends in the collective dynamics found in
knowledge networks, those networks composed of the relationships among knowledge
sources, such as citation networks and keyword networks. In studying the formation
and detection of new trends in the process of knowledge evolution, we use the
collective dynamics approach to construct a network of knowledge clusters based on
citation clustering. This approach explores the processes and rules of new trends
emerging in knowledge clusters by examining the continuous changes in keyword
vectors found in the interaction and coordination between evolving knowledge
clusters. In direct citation networks, the collective dynamics approach is found to
be superior to the baseline method, especially in predicting small knowledge fields
with less data and more uncertainties. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The analysis of research collaboration by field is traditionally conducted
beginning with the classification of the publications from the context of interest.
In this work we propose an alternative approach based on the classification of the
authors by field. The proposed method is more precise if the intended use is to
provide a benchmark for the evaluation of individual propensity to collaborate. In
the current study we apply the new methodology to all Italian university
researchers in the hard sciences, measuring the propensity to collaborate for the
various fields: in general, and specifically with intramural colleagues, extramural
domestic and extramural foreign organizations. Using a simulation, we show that the
results present substantial differences from those obtained through application of
traditional approaches. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We propose a cross-field evaluation method for the publications of research
institutes. With this approach, we first determine a set of the most visible
publications (MVPs) for each field from the publications of all assessed institutes
according to the field's h-index. Then, we measure an institute's production in
each field by its percentage share (i.e., contribution) to the field's MVPs.
Finally, we obtain an institute's cross-field production measure as the average of
its contributions to all fields. The proposed approach is proven empirically to be
reasonable, intuitive to understand, and uniformly applicable to various sets of
institutes and fields of different publication and citation patterns. The field and
cross-field production measures obtained by the proposed approach not only allow
linear ranking of institutes, but also reveal the degree of their production
difference. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB There is an overall perception of increased interdisciplinarity in science, but
this is difficult to confirm quantitatively owing to the lack of adequate methods
to evaluate subjective phenomena. This is no different from the difficulties in
establishing quantitative relationships in human and social sciences. In this paper
we quantified the interdisciplinarity of scientific journals and science fields by
using an entropy measurement based on the diversity of the subject categories of
journals citing a specific journal. The methodology consisted in building citation
networks using the Journal Citation Reports (R) database, in which the nodes were
journals and edges were established based on citations among journals. The overall
network for the 11-year period (1999-2009) studied was small-world and followed a
power-law with exponential cutoff distribution with regard to the in-strength. Upon
visualizing the network topology an overall structure of the various science fields
could be inferred, especially their interconnections. We confirmed quantitatively
that science fields are becoming increasingly interdisciplinary, with the degree of
interdisplinarity (i.e. entropy) correlating strongly with the in-strength of
journals and with the impact factor. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Meta-analysis refers to the statistical methods used in research synthesis for
combining and integrating results from individual studies. In this regard meta-
analytical studies share with narrative reviews the goal of synthesizing the
scientific literature on a particular topic, while as in the case of standard
articles they present new results. This study aims to identify the potential
similarities and differences between meta-analytical studies, reviews and standard
articles as regards their impact and structural features in the field of
psychology. To this end a random sample of 335 examples of each type of document
were selected from the Thomson Reuters Web of Science database. The results showed
that meta-analytical studies receive more citations than do both reviews and
standard articles. All three types of documents showed a similar pattern in terms
of institutional collaboration, while reviews and meta-analytical studies had a
similar number of authors per document. However, reviews had a greater number of
references and pages than did meta-analytical studies. The implications of these
results for the scientific community are discussed. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB The distributions of citations L, two- (IF2) and five-year impact factors (IF5),
and citation half-lives lambda of journals published in different selected
countries are analyzed using Langmuir-type relation: y(n) = y(0) {1 - alpha Kn/(1 +
Kn)}, where y(n) denotes L-n, IF2(n) or IF5(n) of n-ranked journal, y(0) is the
value of y(n) when journal rank n = 0, alpha is an empirical effectiveness
parameter, and K is the Langmuir constant. It was found that: (1) the general
features of the distribution of L-n, IF2(n) or IF5(n) of the journals published in
different individual countries are similar to the results obtained before by the
author from the analysis of the citation distribution data of papers of individual
authors (K. Sangwal,Journal of Informetrics 7 (2013) 36-49), (2) in contrast to the
theoretically expected value of the effectiveness parameter alpha = 1, the
calculated values of alpha > 1 for journals published in different countries, (3)
the trends of the distribution of cited half-lives lambda(n) of journals differ
from those of L-n, IF2(n) and IF5(n) data for different countries, and show one,
two or three linear regions, the longest linear regions with low slopes are
observed in the case of countries publishing relatively high number of journals,
and (4) the product of the Langmuir constant K and the number N of journals for the
processes of citations and two- and five-year impact factors of journals published
in different countries is constant for a process. The results suggest that: (1) the
values of alpha > 1 are associated with a process that retards the generation of
items (i.e. citations or impact factors), the difference (alpha - 1) being related
to the dissemination of contents of the journals published by a country, and (2)
the constancy of KN is related to the publication potential of a country. (c) 2013

AB In this paper we attempt to assess the impact of journals in the field of
forestry, in terms of bibliometric data, by providing an evaluation of forestry
journals based on data envelopment analysis (DEA). In addition, based on the
results of the conducted analysis, we provide suggestions for improving the impact
of the journals in terms of widely accepted measures of journal citation impact,
such as the journal impact factor (IF) and the journal h-index. More specifically,
by modifying certain inputs associated with the productivity of forestry journals,
we have illustrated how this method could be utilized to raise their efficiency,
which in terms of research impact can then be translated into an increase of their
bibliometric indices, such as the h-index, IF or eigenfactor score. (c) 2013

AB The evaluation of performance at the individual level is of fundamental
importance in informing management decisions. The literature provides various
indicators and types of measures, however a problem that is still unresolved and
little addressed is how to compare the performance of researchers working in
different fields (apples to oranges). In this work we propose a solution, testing
various scaling factors for the distributions of research productivity in 174
scientific fields. The analysis is based on the observation of scientific
production by all Italian university researchers active in the hard sciences over
the period 2004-2008, as indexed by the Web of Science. The most effective scaling
factor is the average of the productivity distribution of researchers with
productivity above zero. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Variables subject to an order restriction, for instance Y <= X, have a bivariate
distribution over a non-rectangular joint domain that entails a non-null and
potentially large structural relation even if the variables show no association (in
the sense that particular ranges of values of X do not co-occur with particular
ranges of values of Y). Order restrictions affect a number of scientometric indices
(including the h index and its variants) that are routinely subjected to
correlational analyses to assess whether they provide redundant information, but
these correlations are contaminated by the structural relation. This paper proposes
an alternative definition of association between variables subject to an order
restriction that eliminates their structural relation and reverts to the
conventional definition when applied to variables that are not subject to order
restrictions. This alternative definition is illustrated in a number of theoretical

LA English

DE g-index; Generalized g-index; h-index; Citation analysis; Evaluation
ID PHYSICISTS; CITATIONS
AB The definition of the g-index is as arbitrary as that of the h-index, because
the threshold number g(2) of citations to the g most cited papers can be modified
by a prefactor at one's discretion, thus taking into account more or less of the
highly cited publications within a dataset. In a case study I investigate the
citation records of 26 physicists and show that the prefactor influences the
ranking in terms of the generalized g-index less than for the generalized h-index.
I propose specifically a prefactor of 2 for the g-index, because then the resulting
values are of the same order of magnitude as for the common h-index. In this way
one can avoid the disadvantage of the original g-index, namely that the values are
usually substantially larger than for the h-index and thus the precision problem is
substantially larger; while the advantages of the g-index over the h-index are
kept. Like for the generalized h-index, also for the generalized g-index different
prefactors might be more useful for investigations which concentrate only on top
scientists with high citation frequencies or on junior researchers with small
numbers of citations. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID JOURNAL IMPACT; PUBLICATION; INDICATORS
AB Evaluative bibliometrics is concerned with comparing research units by using
statistical procedures. According to Williams (2012) an empirical study should be
concerned with the substantive and practical significance of the findings as well
as the sign and statistical significance of effects. In this study we will explain
what adjusted predictions and marginal effects are and how useful they are for
institutional evaluative bibliometrics. As an illustration, we will calculate a
regression model using publications (and citation data) produced by four
universities in German-speaking countries from 1980 to 2010. We will show how these
predictions and effects can be estimated and plotted, and how this makes it far
easier to get a practical feel for the substantive meaning of results in evaluative
bibliometric studies. An added benefit of this approach is that it makes it far
easier to explain results obtained via sophisticated statistical techniques to a
broader and sometimes non-technical audience. We will focus particularly on Average
Adjusted Predictions (AAPs), Average Marginal Effects (AMEs), Adjusted Predictions
at Representative Values (APRVs) and Marginal Effects at Representative Values
(MERVs). (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

formulas

ID CITATION ANALYSIS; SCIENCE; INDICATORS
AB Our aim deals with appraising the annual impact calculation of journals
belonging to the JCR, in terms of the expected citation (with or without
selfcitations) by published paper in a range of k-years. A Bayesian approach to the
problem, should reflect not only the current prestige of a journal, but also taking
into account its recent trajectory. In this wide context, credibility theory
becomes an adequate mechanism deciding whether journal's impact factor calculation
to be more or less plausible. Under prior belief that journal quality is determined
by its impact factor, we model the citation-quality process by choosing a
conjugated family of the exponential class in order to obtain a net impact
credibility formula. Proposed weighting schema produces the effect of smoothing out
any sudden increases or decreases in the year-by-year impact factor. (C) 2012

TI Axiomatizing the Hirsch index: Quantity and quality disjoined
LA English
DT Article
DE Scientific impact index; Hirsch index; Axiomatization; Monotonicity
AB Scientific impact indexes like h are responsive to two parameters: the
researcher's productivity given by the number of her published papers (an aspect of
quantity) and citations (an aspect of quality). In this paper I prove that the two
parameters can be treated separately: the index h can be axiomatized by appealing
(1) only to axioms that allow for productivity changes, but do not require taking
into account distinct situations in which a researcher's papers received different
numbers of citations or (2) only to axioms that allow for changes in the number of
citations received by the researcher's papers, but do not require changes in
scientific productivity. The axioms used are weak. Specifically, monotonicity is
avoided. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Communication network is a personal or professional set of relationships between
individuals or organizations. In other words, it is a pattern of contacts which are
created due to the flow of information among the participating actors. The flow of
information establishes various types of relationships among the participating
entities. These relationships eventually form an overall pattern that could form a
gestalt of the total structure within organizational context. In this paper, we
analyze the changing communications structure in order to investigate the patterns
associated with the final stages of organizational crisis. Organizational crisis
has been defined as organizational mortality, organizational death, organizational
exit, bankruptcy, decline, retrenchment and failure to characterize various forms
of organizational crisis. We draw on theoretical perspectives on organizational
crisis proposed by social network analysts and other sociologists to test 5 key
propositions on the changes in the network communication structure associated with
organizational crisis: (1) a few actors, who are prominent or more active, will
become central during the organizational crisis period; (2) reciprocity within the
organizational communication network will increase during crisis period; (3)
organizational communication network becomes less transitive as organizations
experience crisis; (4) number of cliques increases in a communication network as
organizations are going through crisis; and (5) communication network becomes
increasingly centralized as organizations go through crisis. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

AB The citation distribution of papers of selected individual authors was analyzed
using five mathematical functions: power-law, stretched exponential, logarithmic,
binomial and Langmuir-type. The former two functions have previously been proposed
in the literature whereas the remaining three are novel and are derived following
the concepts of growth kinetics of crystals in the presence of additives which act
as inhibitors of growth. Analysis of the data of citation distribution of papers of
the authors revealed that the value of the goodness-of-the-fit parameter R-2 was
the highest for the empirical binomial relation, it was high and comparable for
stretched exponential and Langmuir-type functions, relatively low for power law but
it was the lowest for the logarithmic function. In the Langmuir-type function a
parameter K, defined as Langmuir constant, characterizing the citation behavior of
the authors has been identified. Based on the Langmuir-type function an expression
for cumulative citations L relating the extrapolated value of citations l(0)
corresponding to rank n = 0 for an author and his/her constant K and the number N
of paper receiving citation l >= 1 is also proposed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB This article raises concerns about the advantages of using statistical
significance tests in research assessments as has recently been suggested in the
debate about proper normalization procedures for citation indicators by Opthof and
Leydesdorff (2010). Statistical significance tests are highly controversial and
numerous criticisms have been leveled against their use. Based on examples from
articles by proponents of the use statistical significance tests in research
assessments, we address some of the numerous problems with such tests. The issues
specifically discussed are the ritual practice of such tests, their dichotomous
application in decision making, the difference between statistical and substantive
significance, the implausibility of most null hypotheses, the crucial assumption of
randomness, as well as the utility of standard errors and confidence intervals for
inferential purposes. We argue that applying statistical significance tests and
mechanically adhering to their results are highly problematic and detrimental to
critical thinking. We claim that the use of such tests do not provide any
advantages in relation to deciding whether differences between citation indicators
are important or not. On the contrary their use may be harmful. Like many other
critics, we generally believe that statistical significance tests are over- and
misused in the empirical sciences including scientometrics and we encourage a
reform on these matters. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Using the dataset based on Thomson Reuters Scientific "Web of Science" the
distributions of some well-known indicators, such as h-index and g-index, were
investigated, and different citation behaviors across different scientific fields
resulting from their field dependences were found. To develop a field-independent
index, two scaling methods, based on average citation of subject category and
journal, were used to normalize the citation received by each paper of a certain
author. The distributions of the generalized h-indices in different fields were
found to follow a lognormal function with mean and standard deviation of
approximately -0.8 and 0.8, respectively. A field-independent index fi-index was
then proposed, and its distribution was found to satisfy a universal power-law
function with scaling exponent alpha approaching 3.0. Both the power-law and the
lognormal universality of the distributions verified the field independence of
these indicators. However, deciding which of the scaling methods is the better one
is necessary for the validation of the field-independent index. (C) 2012 Elsevier

AB The aim of the study is to explore the effects of the increase in the number of
publications or citations on several impact indicators by a single journal paper or
citation. The possible change of the h-index, A-index, R-index, pi-index, pi-rate,
Journal Paper Citedness ( JPC), and Citation Distribution Score (CDS) is followed
by models. Particular attention is given to the increase of the indices by a single

show that with increasing number of citations or self-citations the indices may
increase substantially. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A proposal is made in this paper for a broadening of perspective in evaluative
bibliometrics by complementing the (standard) times cited with a cited reference
analysis for a fieldspecific citation impact measurement. The times cited approach
counts the citations of a given publication set. In contrast, we change the
perspective and start by selecting all papers dealing with a specific research
topic or field (the example in this study is research on Aspirin). Then we extract
all cited references from the papers of this field-specific publication set and
analyse which papers, scientists, and journals have been cited most often. In this
study, we use the Chemical Abstracts registry number to select the publications for
a specific field. However, the cited reference approach can be used with any other
field classification system proposed up to now. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

ID AUTHOR COCITATION ANALYSIS; NETWORKS; RETRIEVAL; VISUALIZATION;
PAGERANK; SCIENCE
AB One of the main applications of citation is to find articles that are relevant
to a particular article. However, not all citations are equally relevant to the
target article. This paper presents an approach to identify the most relevant
citation(s). To this end, the Normalized Similarity Index (NSI) is proposed to
quantify the similarity between the source and target of a citation base on the co-
citations and references shared by them. To validate the method, NSI was calculated
for five citation networks and was compared with the peer review grades for the
relevancy between the source and the target articles. The results showed a
significant correlation between the NSI ranks and those of peer review. Also,
combined linkage (CL) and weighted direct citation (WDC) were calculated from the
same data. According to the results of comparison between the NSI with other
similarity measures, in most cases, NSI did better than others at reproducing the
peer rankings. Our principal conclusion is that the NSI can be used to prioritize
the citations of given highly cited article, and represent knowledge flow from the
target article. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Using an application of scientometric methodology to the analysis of scientific
communication, relationships between number of submissions of scientific articles
and calendar events (e.g., festive seasons, weekend vacations, national public
holidays, Chinese New Year, Christmas) are examined quantitatively. With regard to
the aim of understanding the complexities of these relationships, the time series
include weekly, monthly, and seasonal variations on the basis of Received Date as
reported on the Article History of the Elsevier paper format. Data records are
collected during twenty-year ( 1990-2010) and one-year periods - as case study -
ended 31 December 2008. The analysis shows that the overall submission rates are
strongly influenced by calendar events. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI An informetric model for the success-index
LA English

DE Lotka's law; h-Index; success-Index; Information production processes
ID SOCIAL NETWORKS; CROWN INDICATOR; CITATIONS; JOURNALS
AB Based on an idea by Kosmulski, Franceschini et al. (2012, Scientometrics 92( 3),
621-641) propose to classify a publication as "successful" when it receives more
citations than a specific comparison term (CT). In the intention of the authors CT
should be a suitable estimate of the number of citations that a publication - in a
certain scientific context and period of time - should potentially achieve.
According to this definition, the success-index is defined as the number of
successful papers, among a group of publications examined, such as those associated
to a scientist or a journal. In the first part of the paper, the success-index is
recalled, discussing its properties and limitations. Next, relying on the theory of
Information Production Processes (IPPs), an informetric model of the index is
formulated, for a better comprehension of the index and its properties. Particular
emphasis is given to a theoretical sensitivity analysis of the index. (C) 2012

TI Mining diversity subgraph in multidisciplinary scientific collaboration
networks: A meso perspective
LA English
DT Article
DE Scientific collaboration; Network analysis; Subgraph detection
ID INFORMATION-SCIENCE; COMMUNITY; LIBRARY; IMPACT
AB This paper proposes a framework to analyze the interdisciplinary collaboration
in a coauthorship network from a meso perspective using topic modeling: (1) a
customized topic model is developed to capture and formalize the interdisciplinary
feature; and (2) the two algorithms Diversity Subgraph Extraction (DSE) and
Constraint-based Diversity Subgraph Extraction (CDSE) are designed and implemented
to extract a meso view, i.e. a diversity subgraph of the interdisciplinary
collaboration. The proposed framework is demonstrated using a coauthorship network
in the field of computer science. A comparison between DSE and Breadth First Search
(BSF)- based subgraph extraction favors DSE in capturing the diversity in
interdisciplinary collaboration. Potential possibilities for studying various
research topics based on the proposed framework of analysis are discussed. (C) 2012

AB Using the concepts of h- core and h- tail, shape descriptors and shape
centroids, k-index and k ' - index, dynamic measures are probed, with practical
data in the fields of Physics and sociology. It is revealed that there are obvious
differences between natural sciences ( Physics, particles & fields) and social
sciences ( sociology) when c-descriptor, h- core centroid and index are applied as
dynamic measures, while few differences exist when using t-descriptor, h- tail
centroid and k ' - index, following a time span from 1 to 10 years. (C) 2012

ID MANAGEMENT; IMPACT; PERCEPTIONS; DISCOURSE; SCHOLARS; QUALITY; FORUMS
AB The purpose of this study is to test for the presence of order-effect bias in
journal ranking surveys. Data were obtained from 379 active knowledge management
and intellectual capital researchers who rated 25 journals on a 7-point scale. Five
different versions of the survey instrument were utilized. Consistent with the
cognitive elaboration model, the satisficing theory, and the Gricean maxim of
orderliness, order-effect bias was observed in journal ranking surveys. Journals
that appear in the beginning of the ranking list delivered to survey respondents
consistently receive higher scores than journals at the end of the list. Overall,
the position of the journal in the list explains over 10% of its score. Therefore,
authors of journal ranking studies are recommended to use multiple versions of the
survey instrument with randomized journal orders. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Study investigates the availability, persistence and half life of URL citations
cited in two Indian LIS journals articles published between 2002 and 2010. This
study also investigates how researchers can resurrect lapsed URL citations cited in
research articles, using Wayback machine. A total of 1290 URLs cited in 472
research articles published in Indian LIS journals spanning a period of 9 years
(2002-2010) were extracted. Study found that only 18.91% (1290 out of 6820) of URLs
cited in these journal articles. 39.84% of URL citations were not accessible and
remaining 60.15% of URL citations were still accessible. The HTTP 404 error
message-" page not found" was the overwhelming message encountered and represented
54.86% of all HTTP error messages. However 51.06% URLs were recovered from HTTP 404
error message. Study also noticed that the half-life of URL citations was increased
from 6.33 years to 13.85 years after recovering missing URLs from Wayback machine.

PUBLICATION; EXCELLENCE; CHARTS; IMPACT
AB Percentiles have been established in bibliometrics as an important alternative
to mean-based indicators for obtaining a normalized citation impact of
publications. Percentiles have a number of advantages over standard bibliometric
indicators used frequently: for example, their calculation is not based on the
arithmetic mean which should not be used for skewed bibliometric data. This study
describes the opportunities and limits and the advantages and disadvantages of
using percentiles in bibliometrics. We also address problems in the calculation of
percentiles and percentile rank classes for which there is not (yet) a satisfactory
solution. It will be hard to compare the results of different percentile-based
studies with each other unless it is clear that the studies were done with the same
choices for percentile calculation and rank assignment. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Unlike competitive higher education systems, non-competitive systems show
relatively uniform distributions of top researchers and low performers among
universities. In this study, we examine the impact of unproductive and top faculty
members on overall research performance of the university they belong to.
Furthermore, we analyze the potential relationship between research productivity of
a university and the indexes of concentration of unproductive and top researchers.
Research performance is evaluated using a bibliometric approach, through
publications indexed on the Web of Science between 2004 and 2008. The set analyzed
consists of all Italian universities active in the hard sciences. (C) 2012 Elsevier

TI On the time dependence of the h-index
LA English
DT Article
DE h-index; Time dependence; Time scaled h-index; Contemporary h-index
AB The time dependence of the h-index is analyzed by considering the average
behavior of h as a function of the academic age AA for about 1400 Italian
physicists, with career lengths spanning from 3 to 46 years. The individual h-index
is strongly correlated with the square root of the total citations Nc: h
approximate to 0.53 NC. For academic ages ranging from 12 to 24 years, the
distribution of the time scaled index h/ sic AA is approximately time-independent
and it is well described by the Gompertz function. The time scaled index h/ sic AA
has an average approximately equal to 3.8 and a standard deviation approximately
equal to 1.6. Finally, the time scaled index h/ sic AA appears to be strongly
correlated with the contemporary h-index hc. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

ID HIRSCH-INDEX; DISTRIBUTIONS
AB Five ratios RH, RT, SH, ST and SZ derived from the three-part division of a set
of sources in h-core, h-tail and uncited sources are defined. Dynamic changes in
the three independent ratios RH, SH and SZ are studied for six selected topics.
Data about these topics are obtained from the Web of Science for scientific papers
and Derwent Innovations Index for technical patents. It is observed that all RH-and
SH-values decrease when the time span widens, while SZ stays the same or increases;
and that all RH- and SH-values for papers are larger than the corresponding values
for patents. The shifted Lotka distribution is used in a theoretical interpretation
of these empirical phenomena. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Accurate measurement of research productivity should take account of both the
number of co-authors of every scientific work and of the different contributions of
the individuals. For researchers in the life sciences, common practice is to
indicate such contributions through position in the authors list. In this work, we
measure the distortion introduced to bibliometric ranking lists for scientific
productivity when the number of co-authors or their position in the list is
ignored. The field of observation consists of all Italian university professors
working in the life sciences, with scientific production examined over the period
2004-2008. The outcomes of the study lead to a recommendation against using
indicators or evaluation methods that ignore the different authors' contributions
to the research results. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The study explores the characteristics of China's independent research articles
published from 1980 to 2011, based on the database of Science Citation Index
Expanded. The publication outputs of seven major industrialized countries including
Canada, France, Japan, Germany, Italy, the UK, and the USA were compared with
China. Annual production, field performance, research emphases and trends, top
articles, as well as main institutional and individual contributors by its top
cited articles were analyzed. Some newly developed indicators related to words in
title, author keywords, KeyWords Plus, first author, corresponding author, and Y-
index were employed to provide in-depth information on topic and author
contributions. Results showed that China has been closing the gap with the USA with
the greatest growth, and has stood the second since 2006. Most top cited articles
were published in 2000s, made up approximately seven tenths of total articles.
Pronounced activities were found in chemistry and physics related categories. The
core categories included multidisciplinary chemistry, physical chemistry,
multidisciplinary materials science, and applied physics. Moreover, China's
performance of nanotechnology and science, especially carbon nanotubes,
nanoparticles, nanowires, and nanostructures showed dramatic growth. Six top
articles with at least 1000 citations were examined, and were observed to concern
medicine, nanotube, and adsorption. In addition, main contributing institutions and
authors were also revealed and evaluated. Chinese Academy of Sciences played a
dominant role, and Tsinghua University, Peking University and five universities in
Hong Kong showed good scientific performance. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper proposes a new node centrality measurement index (c-index) and its
derivative indexes (iterative c-index and c(g)-index) to measure the collaboration
competence of a node in a weighted network. We prove that c-index observe the power
law distribution in the weighted scale-free network. A case study of a very large
scientific collaboration network indicates that the indexes proposed in this paper
are different from other common centrality measures (degree centrality, betweenness
centrality, closeness centrality, eigenvector centrality and node strength) and
other h-type indexes (lobby-index, w-lobby index and h-degree). The c-index and its
derivative indexes proposed in this paper comprehensively utilize the amount of
nodes' neighbors, link strengths and centrality information of neighbor nodes to
measure the centrality of a node, composing a new unique centrality measure for
collaborative competency. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Several studies have assessed whether funding of disease specific research is in
line with their burden. The authors of these studies concluded that the burden of a
disease was a good predictor for its associated research funding. However, previous
analyses did not take into account diseases that mainly affect people living in low
income regions, i.e. so-called diseases of poverty. Moreover, the analyses were
only performed for the burden diseases cause in high income countries. We
investigated whether the conclusions about the relationship between burden and
funding still holds when (1) including diseases of poverty and (2) accounting for
the burden of diseases in low income countries. We found that the relationship
between the burden and the level of diseases specific funding decreases for people
living in low income countries. We find the best predictor for the level of funding
to be the mortality in high income countries. In contrast to previous studies, we
were able to include more diseases into our analyses (74). This enabled us to
discover differences in funding levels between and within groups of diseases. we
found that research on cancers was over funded with respect to the associated
burden. In contrast, diseases of poverty systematically receive less funding than
would be expected based on their burden. Other groups of diseases (cardiovascular
diseases and mental illnesses) contained both over and under funded diseases. (C)

AB This study investigates the trend of global concentration in scientific research
and technological innovation around the world. It accepts papers and patents as
appropriate data for revealing the development and status of science and technology
respectively. The performance of these outputs in production and citation impact is
taken into consideration in the analysis. The findings suggest that both papers and
patents are geographically concentrated on a small number of countries, including
the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, and France. China has made
great progress in paper production and citation impact, and Taiwan and Korea have
experienced a rapid growth in patents over the past years. The degree of
concentration dramatically decreases when the data from the United States are
excluded, indicating the effects of the U.S.'s participation on the concentration.
Patents show a higher degree of concentration than papers. With time-varying
aspects taken into consideration, the study indicates that the degree of
concentration of papers and patents has gradually decreased over time. The
concentration of patents has declined more slowly than that of papers. This
decrease of the concentration is mainly due to the reduction of the predominant
role of the U.S. in world R&D output. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Research evaluation; Bibliometrics; Citations; Scaling
AB Over the past decade, national research evaluation exercises, traditionally
conducted using the peer review method, have begun opening to bibliometric
indicators. The citations received by a publication are assumed as proxy for its
quality, but they require standardization prior to use in comparative evaluation of
organizations or individual scientists: the citation data must be standardized, due
to the varying citation behavior across research fields. The objective of this
paper is to compare the effectiveness of the different methods of normalizing
citations, in order to provide useful indications to research assessment
practitioners. Simulating a typical national research assessment exercise, he
analysis is conducted for all subject categories in the hard sciences and is based
on the Thomson Reuters Science Citation Index-Expanded (R). Comparisons show that
the citations average is the most effective scaling parameter, when the average is
based only on the publications actually cited. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB We propose two new indices that are able to measure a scientific researcher's
overall influence and the level of his/her works' association with the main-stream
research subjects within a scientific field. These two new measures - the total
influence index and the mainstream index - differ from traditional performance
measures such as the simple citation count and the h-index in that they take into
account the indirect influence of an author's work. Indirect influence describes a
scientific publication's impact upon subsequent works that do not reference it
directly. The two measures capture indirect influence information from the
knowledge emanating paths embedded in the citation network of a target scientific
field. We take the Hirsch index, data envelopment analysis, and lithium iron
phosphate battery technology field to examine the characteristics of these two
measures. The results show that the total influence index favors earlier
researchers and successfully highlights those researchers who have made crucial
contributions to the target scientific field. The main-stream index, in addition to
underlining total influence, also spotlights active researchers who enter into a
scientific field in a later development stage. In summary, these two new measures
are valuable complements to traditional scientific performance measures. (C) 2012

AB Given the recent trend in bibliometrics and information science to use
increasingly complex statistical methods, it is necessary to have powerful
toolboxes to work with data from Web of Science (Thomson Reuters). We developed
such a toolbox with four specific commands for the statistical software package
Stata. These commands refer to (1) the import of downloads from Web of Science to
Stata, (2) the preprocessing of address information from authors of publications in
the downloaded set, (3) the geocoding of address information, and (4) the
calculation of the minimum and maximum distance between several co-authors of a
single paper. An advantage of developing commands for an established and
comprehensive statistical software package (like Stata) is that a large number of
further commands are available for the analysis of bibliometric data. We will
describe some of these useful commands as well. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The relationship between researchers' publishing and citing behaviours has
received little examination despite its potential importance in scholarly
communication, particularly at an international level. To remedy this we studied
documents and their references indexed in Thomson Reuters's Web of Science (WoS) in
the period 2000-2009 to compare journal publishing behaviours against journal
citing behaviours across the world. The results reveal that most publications in,
and citations to, all five quality based strata of journals examined come from
scientifically and economically advanced countries. Nevertheless, in proportion to
their total number of citations given to WoS journals, it seems that less developed
countries cite high-quality journals at the same rate as developed countries and so
the poorer publishing of less developed countries does not seem to be due to a lack
of access to top journals. Moreover, examining the publishing and citing trends of
countries revealed a decreasing rate of high-income and Scientifically Advanced
Countries (SACs) publications in, and citations to, all quality ranges of journals
in comparison to the increasing rate of publications and citations of other groups.
Finally, research cooperation between developed and less developed countries seems
to positively influence the publishing behaviour of the latter as their
publications co-authored with developed countries were published more often in top
journals. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The paper first introduces the basic problems of author bibliographic coupling
including the relationship between author bibliographic coupling and document
bibliographic coupling as well as the three calculation methods of author coupling
strength, namely, simple method, minimum method and combined method. Next I choose
a small sample of authors in Chinese library and information science (LIS) as the
research objects to have a comparative analysis of three types of author coupling
strength algorithms (the data source is from the Chinese Social Sciences Citation
Index (CSSCI)). The result shows that the minimum method is the most appropriate
one to calculate the author coupling strength. Then a large sample of authors is
chosen to analyze the intellectual structure of Chinese LIS. The result shows that
author bibliographic coupling analysis (ABCA) can discover the intellectual
structure of a discipline better. It is also found that compared with author
cocitation analysis (ACA), ABCA has the advantage that it not only can discover the
intellectual structure of a discipline more comprehensively and concretely but also
can reflect the research frontier of the discipline. Finally, some practical
problems that arise during this research are discussed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB This paper investigates the citation impact of three large geographical areas -
the U.S., the European Union (EU), and the rest of the world (RW) - at different
aggregation levels. The difficulty is that 42% of the 3.6 million articles in our
Thomson Scientific dataset are assigned to several sub-fields among a set of 219
Web of Science categories. We follow a multiplicative approach in which every
article is wholly counted as many times as it appears at each aggregation level. We
compute the crown indicator and the Mean Normalized Citation Score (MNCS) using for
the first time sub-field normalization procedures for the multiplicative case. We
also compute a third indicator that does not correct for differences in citation
practices across sub-fields. It is found that: (1) No geographical area is
systematically favored (or penalized) by any of the two normalized indicators. (2)
According to the MNCS, only in six out of 80 disciplines - but in none of 20 fields
- is the EU ahead of the U.S. In contrast, the normalized U.S./EU gap is greater
than 20% in 44 disciplines, 13 fields, and for all sciences as a whole. The
dominance of the EU over the RW is even greater. (3) The U. S. appears to devote
relatively more - and the RW less - publication effort to sub-fields with a high
mean citation rate, which explains why the U.S./EU and EU/RW gaps for all sciences
as a whole increase by 4.5 and 5.6 percentage points in the un-normalized case. The
results with a fractional approach are very similar indeed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

AB In the present work we introduce a modification of the h-index for multi-
authored papers with contribution based author name ranking. The modified h-index
is denoted by h(mc)-index. It employs the framework of the h(m)-index, which in
turn is a straightforward modification of the Hirsch index, proposed by Schreiber.
To retain the merit of requiring no additional rearrangement of papers in the h(m)-
index and in order to overcome its shortage of benefiting secondary authors at the
expense of primary authors, h(mc)-index uses combined credit allocation (CCA) to
replace fractionalized counting in the h(m)-index. The h(m)-index is a special form
of h(mc)-index and fits for papers with equally important authors or alphabetically
ordered authorship. There is a possibility of an author of lower contribution to
the whole scientific community obtaining a higher h(mc)-index. Rational h(mc)-
index, denoted by h(mcr)-index, can avoid it. A fictitious example as a model case
and two empirical cases are analyzed. The correlations of the h(mcr)-index with the
h-index and its several variants considering multiple co-authorship are inspected
with 30 researchers' citation data. The results show that the h(mcr)-index is more
reasonable for authors with different contributions. A researcher playing more
important roles in significant work will obtain higher h(mcr)-index. (C) 2012

ID SCIENTIFIC IMPACT INDEXES; CITATION; SCIENCE; OPERATORS
AB The process of assessing individual authors should rely upon a proper
aggregation of reliable and valid papers' quality metrics. Citations are merely one
possible way to measure appreciation of publications. In this study we propose some
new, SJR- and SNIP-based indicators, which not only take into account the broadly
conceived popularity of a paper (manifested by the number of citations), but also
other factors like its potential, or the quality of papers that cite a given
publication. We explore the relation and correlation between different metrics and
study how they affect the values of a real-valued generalized h-index calculated
for 11 prominent scientometricians. We note that the h-index is a very unstable
impact function, highly sensitive for applying input elements' scaling. Our
analysis is not only of theoretical significance: data scaling is often performed
to normalize citations across disciplines. Uncontrolled application of this
operation may lead to unfair and biased (toward some groups) decisions. This puts
the validity of authors assessment and ranking using the h-index into question.
Obviously, a good impact function to be used in practice should not be as much
sensitive to changing input data as the analyzed one. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Project funding is an increasingly important mode of research funding. The
rationale is that through project funding new fields and new themes can be
supported more effectively. Furthermore, project funding improves competition,
which is expected to select the better research projects and researchers. However,
project funding has a price, as it requires researchers to invest time in reviewing
proposals, and to participate in selection committees. In that perspective,
selection committee membership can be seen as a service to the scholarly community.
However, what do committee members themselves get from membership? In this paper
we show that committee members in average are more successful in grant applications
than other principle investigators, and this is not explained by performance
differences. The findings suggest that committee membership is not only service,
but also self-service. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this paper, we discussed the feasibility of early recognition of highly cited
papers with citation prediction tools. Because there are some noises in papers'
citation behaviors, the soft fuzzy rough set (SFRS), which is well robust to
noises, is introduced in constructing the case-based classifier (CBC) for highly
cited papers. After careful design that included: (a) feature reduction by SFRS;
(b) case selection by the combination use of SFRS and the concept of case coverage;
(c) reasoning by two classification techniques of case coverage based prediction
and case score based prediction, this study demonstrates that the highly cited
papers could be predicted by objectively assessed factors. It shows that features
included the research capabilities of the first author, the papers' quality and the
reputation of journal are the most relevant predictors for highly cited papers. (C)

AB The study tries to construct the diffusion models of crisis information in micro
blog. We propose three information release patterns in micro blog according to the
duration of crisis information released, namely concentrated release, continuous
release, and pulse release. Based on Logistic function, three respective diffusion
models are constructed. We choose three crisis events to test the diffusion models
using the variables of the number of micro blogs with the crisis information (NMCI)
and the increment of NMCI. The estimate results show that the diffusion of crisis
information in micro blogs can be described by Logistic function, and the growth
curve of NMCI is S-shaped. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Newly introduced bibliometric indices may be biased by the preference of
scientists for bibliometric indices, in which their own research receives a high

scientists who recently proposed new bibliometric indices were analyzed in terms of

AB Most networks in information science appear as weighted networks, while many of
them (e.g. author citation networks, web link networks and knowledge flow networks)
are directed networks. Based on the definition of the h-degree, the directed h-

After analyzing the properties and derived measures of the directed h-degree an
actual application of LIS journals citation network is worked out. (C) 2012

TI The citation-based indicator and combined impact indicator-New options
for measuring impact
LA English
DT Article
DE Citation based indicator (CBI); Combined impact indicator (CII);
Integrated impact indicator (I3); Percentile ranks (PRs)
AB Metrics based on percentile ranks (PRs) for measuring scholarly impact involves
complex treatment because of various defects such as overvaluing or devaluing an
object caused by percentile ranking schemes, ignoring precise citation variation
among those ranked next to each other, and inconsistency caused by additional
papers or citations. These defects are especially obvious in a small-sized dataset.
To avoid the complicated treatment of PRs based metrics, we propose two new
indicators-the citation-based indicator (CBI) and the combined impact indicator
(CII). Document types of publications are taken into account. With the two
indicators, one would no more be bothered by complex issues encountered by PRs
based indicators. For a small-sized dataset with less than 100 papers, special
calculation is no more needed. The CBI is based solely on citation counts and the
CII measures the integrate contributions of publications and citations. Both
virtual and empirical data are used so as to compare the effect of related
indicators. The CII and the PRs based indicator I3 are highly correlated but the
former reflects citation impact more and the latter relates more to publications.

AB Because of the variations in citation behavior across research fields,
appropriate standardization must be applied as part of any bibliometric analysis of
the productivity of individual scientists and research organizations. Such
standardization involves scaling by some factor that characterizes the distribution
of the citations of articles from the same year and subject category. In this work
we conduct an analysis of the sensitivity of researchers' productivity rankings to
the scaling factor chosen to standardize their citations. To do this we first
prepare the productivity rankings for all researchers (more than 30,000) operating
in the hard sciences in Italy, over the period 2004-2008. We then measure the
shifts in rankings caused by adopting scaling factors other than the particular
factor that seems more effective for comparing the impact of publications in
different fields: the citation average of the distribution of cited-only
publications. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A novel method is proposed to monitor and record scientists' working timetable.
We record the downloads information of scientific papers real-timely from Springer
round the clock, and try to explore scientists' working habits. As our observation
demonstrates, many scientists are still engaged in their research after working
hours every day. Many of them work far into the night, even till next morning. In
addition, research work also intrudes into their weekends. Different working time
patterns are revealed. In the US, overnight work is more prevalent among
scientists, while Chinese scientists mostly have busy weekends with their
scientific research. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI "Everything is plentiful-Except attention". Attention data of scientific
journals on social web tools
LA English
DT Article
DE Attention; Scientific publishing; Social media; Facebook; Twitter
ID INFORMATION; BLOGS; ECONOMY
AB One hundred scientific and scholarly journal web sites were investigated to find
out their use of social media tools and to examine attention data revealed by them.
Seventy-eight scientific journals used social media tools, RSS being the most
common. Interactive social media tools - Facebook, Twitter and blogs - were present
on 19 journal web sites. Attention data were operationalised as liking, commenting
or sharing postings on Facebook, Twitter or blog texts or linking to articles,
liking a YouTube entry or following a journal on Twitter. Facebook and blog sites
of the journals had varying roles with respect to content generated by readers and
the journal, and the amount of attention data received by the journals' Facebook,
Twitter and blog sites also showed great variation. In scientific communication,
social media have a role of their own, complementing that of scientific journals,
and their active use indicates the clear demand for them. Attention is difficult to
measure also by social media, but their interactive features obviously indicate one
part of it, and attention economy presents a fruitful viewpoint for studying
scientific communication by providing relevant and useful concepts that describe
its characteristics and factors that influence the attention it receives. (C) 2012

AB The aim of this brief communication is to reply to a letter by Kosmulski
(Journal of Informetrics 6(3):368-369, 2012), which criticizes a recent indicator
called "success-index". The most interesting features of this indicator, presented
in Franceschini et al. (Scientometrics, in press), are: (i) allowing the selection
of an "elite" subset from a set of publications and (ii) implementing the field-
normalization at the level of an individual publication. We show that the
Kosmulski's criticism is unfair and inappropriate, as it is the result of a
misinterpretation of the indicator. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A new size-independent indicator of scientific journal prestige, the SJR2
indicator, is proposed. This indicator takes into account not only the prestige of
the citing scientific journal but also its closeness to the cited journal using the
cosine of the angle between the vectors of the two journals' cocitation profiles.
To eliminate the size effect, the accumulated prestige is divided by the fraction
of the journal's citable documents, thus eliminating the decreasing tendency of
this type of indicator and giving meaning to the scores. Its method of computation
is described, and the results of its implementation on the Scopus 2008 dataset is
compared with those of an ad hoc Journal Impact Factor, JIF(3y), and SNIP, the
comparison being made both overall and within specific scientific areas. All three,
the SJR2 indicator, the SNIP indicator and the JIF distributions, were found to fit
well to a logarithmic law. Although the three metrics were strongly correlated,
there were major changes in rank. In addition, the SJR2 was distributed more
equalized than the JIF by Subject Area and almost as equalized as the SNIP, and
better than both at the lower level of Specific Subject Areas. The incorporation of
the cosine increased the values of the flows of prestige between thematically close
journals. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Citation curves for researchers with the same h index can vary greatly in the
heaviness of their top (excess citations to core papers) or the heaviness of their
tail (citations to non-core papers), revealing quantitative differences across
researchers. Also, promotion to the next higher h depends only on citations
received by a small subset of papers, so that researchers with a given h may have
citation curves whose top and tail reveal a weaker impact than that of researchers
with a lower h. To overcome these problems, we propose a two-sided h index, an
extension that computes additional h indices progressively up the top and out the
tail of the citation curve. This extension represents a citation curve descriptor
one of whose elements is the scalar h. The advantages of the two-sided h index are
illustrated through analysis of citation curves for 88 researchers with h indices
ranging from 8 to 20. Several schemes are also discussed that use the two-sided h
index to define criteria for ranking researchers within and across scalar h
indices, according to whether the top of the citation curve, its tail, or both are
deemed relevant under the circumstances in which research accomplishments are
assessed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI An empirical analysis of the use of alphabetical authorship in
scientific publishing

AB There are different ways in which the authors of a scientific publication can
determine the order in which their names are listed. Sometimes author names are
simply listed alphabetically. In other cases, authorship order is determined based
on the contribution authors have made to a publication. Contribution- based
authorship can facilitate proper credit assignment, for instance by giving most
credits to the first author. In the case of alphabetical authorship, nothing can be
inferred about the relative contribution made by the different authors of a
publication.
In this paper, we present an empirical analysis of the use of alphabetical
authorship in scientific publishing. Our analysis covers all fields of science. We
find that the use of alphabetical authorship is declining over time. In 2011, the
authors of less than 4% of all publications intentionally chose to list their names
alphabetically. The use of alphabetical authorship is most common in mathematics,
economics (including finance), and high energy physics. Also, the use of
alphabetical authorship is relatively more common in the case of publications with
either a small or a large number of authors. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Evaluating the performance of institutions with different resources is not easy,
any citation distribution comparisons are strongly affected by the differences in
the number of articles published. The paper introduces a method for comparing
citation distributions of research groups that differ in size. The citation
distribution of a larger group is reduced by a certain factor and compared with the
original distribution of a smaller group. Expected values and tolerance intervals
of the reduced set of citations are calculated. A comparison of both distributions
can be conveniently viewed in a graph. The size-independent reduced Hirsch index -
a function of reducing factor that allows the comparison of groups within a
scientific field - is calculated in the same way. The method can be used for
comparing groups or units differing in full-time equivalent, funding or the number
of researchers, for comparing countries by population, gross domestic product, etc.
It is shown that for the calculation of the reduced Hirsch index, the upper part of
the original citation distribution is sufficient. The method is illustrated through
several case comparisons. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Despite the huge amount of literature concerning the h-index, few papers have
been devoted to its statistical analysis when a probabilistic distribution is
assumed for citation counts. The present contribution mainly aims to divulge the
inferential techniques recently introduced by Pratelli et al. (2012), by explaining
the details for proper point and set estimation of the theoretical h-index.
Moreover, some new achievements on simultaneous inference - addressed to produce
suitable scholar comparisons - are carried out. Finally, the analysis of the
citation dataset for the Nobel Laureates (in the last five years) and for the
Fields medallists (from 2002 onward) is considered in order to exemplify the
theoretical issues. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Mining patterns of author orders in scientific publications

DE Author orders; Author sequence; Scientific collaboration
ID SEQUENTIAL PATTERNS; COLLABORATION; REFLECTIONS; CREDIT; 1ST
AB The author order of multi-authored papers can reveal subtle patterns of
scientific collaboration and provide insights on the nature of credit assignment
among coauthors. This article proposes a sequence-based perspective on scientific
collaboration. Using frequently occurring sequences as the unit of analysis, this
study explores (1) what types of sequence patterns are most common in the
scientific collaboration at the level of authors, institutions, U. S. states, and
nations in Library and Information Science (LIS); and (2) the productivity
(measured by number of papers) and influence (measured by citation counts) of
different types of sequence patterns. Results show that (1) the productivity and
influence approximately follow the power law for frequent sequences in the four
levels of analysis; (2) the productivity and influence present a significant
positive correlation among frequent sequences, and the strength of the correlation
increases with the level of integration; (3) for author-level, institution-level,
and state-level frequent sequences, short geographical distances between the
authors usually co-present with high productivities, while long distances tend to
co-occur with large citation counts; (4) for author-level frequent sequences, the
pattern of "the more productive and prestigious authors ranking ahead" is the one
with the highest productivity and the highest influence; however, in the rest of
the levels of analysis, the pattern with the highest productivity and the highest
influence is the one with "the less productive and prestigious
institutions/states/nations ranking ahead." (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB In the past, recursive algorithms, such as PageRank originally conceived for the
Web, have been successfully used to rank nodes in the citation networks of papers,
authors, or journals. They have proved to determine prestige and not popularity,
unlike citation counts. However, bibliographic networks, in contrast to the Web,
have some specific features that enable the assigning of different weights to
citations, thus adding more information to the process of finding prominence. For
example, a citation between two authors may be weighed according to whether and
when those two authors collaborated with each other, which is information that can
be found in the co-authorship network. In this study, we define a couple of
PageRank modifications that weigh citations between authors differently based on
the information from the co-authorship graph. In addition, we put emphasis on the
time of publications and citations. We test our algorithms on the Web of Science
data of computer science journal articles and determine the most prominent computer
scientists in the 10-year period of 1996-2005. Besides a correlation analysis, we
also compare our rankings to the lists of ACM A. M. Turing Award and ACM SIGMOD E.
F. Codd Innovations Award winners and find the new time-aware methods to outperform
standard PageRank and its time-unaware weighted variants. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

AB In economics the Research Papers in Economics (RePEc) network has become an
essential source for the gathering and the spread of both existing and new economic
research. Furthermore, it is currently the largest bibliometric database in
economic sciences containing 33 different indicators for more than 30,000
economists. Based on this bibliographic information RePEc calculates well-known
rankings for authors and academic institutions. We provide some cautionary remarks
concerning the interpretation of some provided bibliometric measures in RePEc.
Moreover, we show how individual and aggregated rankings can be biased due to the
employed ranking methodology. In order to select key indicators describing and
assessing research performance of scientist, we propose to apply principal
component analysis in this data-rich environment. This approach allows us to assign
weights to each indicator prior to aggregation. We illustrate the approach by
providing a new overall ranking of economists based on RePEc data. (C) 2012

AB We analyze whether preferential attachment in scientific coauthorship networks
is different for authors with different forms of centrality. Using a complete
database for the scientific specialty of research about "steel structures," we show
that betweenness centrality of an existing node is a significantly better predictor
of preferential attachment by new entrants than degree or closeness centrality.
During the growth of a network, preferential attachment shifts from (local) degree
centrality to betweenness centrality as a global measure. An interpretation is that
supervisors of PhD projects and postdocs broker between new entrants and the
already existing network, and thus become focal to preferential attachment. Because
of this mediation, scholarly networks can be expected to develop differently from
networks which are predicated on preferential attachment to nodes with high degree
centrality. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We point out some theoretical problems in the construction of the activity index
and related indicators. Concretely, if the activity index is larger than one then
it is, at least theoretically, possible to decrease its value by increasing the
activity in that field. Although for some practical applications these problems do
not seem to have serious consequences our investigation adds to the list of
problematic indicators. As the problems we point out are due to the mathematical
structure of this indicator our analysis also applies to all indicators formed in
the same way, such as the revealed comparative advantage index or Balassa index.

the effects from authors' visibility on their h-index

AB Various factors are believed to govern the selection of references in citation
networks, but a precise, quantitative determination of their importance has
remained elusive. In this paper, we show that three factors can account for the
referencing pattern of citation networks for two topics, namely "graphenes" and
"complex networks", thus allowing one to reproduce the topological features of the
networks built with papers being the nodes and the edges established by citations.
The most relevant factor was content similarity, while the other two - in-degree
(i.e. citation counts) and age of publication - had varying importance depending on
the topic studied. This dependence indicates that additional factors could play a
role. Indeed, by intuition one should expect the reputation (or visibility) of
authors and/or institutions to affect the referencing pattern, and this is only
indirectly considered via the in-degree that should correlate with such reputation.
Because information on reputation is not readily available, we simulated its effect
on artificial citation networks considering two communities with distinct fitness
(visibility) parameters. One community was assumed to have twice the fitness value
of the other, which amounts to a double probability for a paper being cited. While
the h-index for authors in the community with larger fitness evolved with time with
slightly higher values than for the control network (no fitness considered), a
drastic effect was noted for the community with smaller fitness. (C) 2012 Elsevier

AB We examine the extent to which the presence and number of web links between
higher education institutions can be predicted from a set of structural factors
like country, subject mix, physical distance, academic reputation, and size. We
combine two datasets on a large sample of European higher education institutions
(HEIs) containing information on inter-university web links, and organizational
characteristics, respectively. Descriptive and inferential analyses provide strong
support for our hypotheses: we identify factors predicting the connectivity between
HEIs, and the number of web links existing between them. We conclude that, while
the presence of a web link cannot be directly related to its underlying motivation
and the type of relationship between HEIs, patterns of network ties between HEIs
present interesting statistical properties which reveal new insights on the
function and structure of the inter organizational networks in which HEIs are
embedded. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Higher education systems in competitive environments generally present top
universities, that are able to attract top scientists, top students and public and
private financing, with notable socio-economic benefits in their region. The same
does not hold true for noncompetitive systems. In this study we will measure the
dispersion of research performance within and between universities in the Italian
university system, typically non-competitive. We will also investigate the level of
correlation that occurs between performance in research and its dispersion in
universities. The findings may represent a first benchmark for similar studies in
other nations. Furthermore, they lead to policy indications, questioning the
effectiveness of selective funding of universities based on national research
assessment exercises. The field of observation is composed of all Italian
universities active in the hard sciences. Research performance will be evaluated
using a bibliometric approach, through publications indexed in the Web of Science
between 2004 and 2008. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The journal impact factor (JIF) proposed by Garfield in the year 1955 is one of
the most prominent and common measures of the prestige, position, and importance of
a scientific journal. The JIF may profit from its comprehensibility, robustness,
methodological reproducibility, simplicity, and rapid availability, but it is at
the expense of serious technical and methodological flaws. The paper discusses two
core problems with the JIF: first, citations of documents are generally not
normally distributed, and, furthermore, the distribution is affected by outliers,
which has serious consequences for the use of the mean value in the JIF
calculation. Second, the JIF is affected by bias factors that have nothing to do
with the prestige or quality of a journal (e.g., document type). For solving these
two problems, we suggest using McCall's area transformation and the Rubin Causal
Model. Citation data for documents of all journals in the ISI Subject Category
"Psychology, Mathematical" (Journal Citation Report) are used to illustrate the
proposal. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We introduce layered systems such as the citations-citing authors-citing
institutes-citing countries one. Diffusion of scientific ideas flows through such
layered systems. Our contribution contains three main topics: a fractional counting
system for the number of different units in a layer; the fractional number of items
of the same type, i.e. in the same layer, over which ideas have been diffused; and
the evenness of diffusion over different layers. In this way we construct a
coherent system to measure the extent to which scientific ideas are diffused. (C)

AB In this work we investigate the sensitivity of individual researchers'
productivity rankings to the time of citation observation. The analysis is based on
observation of research products for the 2001-2003 triennium for all research staff
of Italian universities in the hard sciences, with the year of citation observation
varying from 2004 to 2008. The 2008 rankings list is assumed the most accurate, as
citations have had the longest time to accumulate and thus represent the best
possible proxy of impact. By comparing the rankings lists from each year against
the 2008 benchmark we provide policy-makers and research organization managers a
measure of trade-off between timeliness of evaluation execution and accuracy of
performance rankings. The results show that with variation in the evaluation
citation window there are variable rates of inaccuracy across the disciplines of
researchers. The inaccuracy results negligible for Physics, Biology and Medicine.

AB This study proposes a way of mapping open innovation research structure by
quantitatively analyzing open innovation research papers retrieved from Web of
Science database. A total of 130 papers are retrieved in this study and 62 papers
which contain keywords are chosen for research structure visualization. Open
innovation research networks are quantitatively investigated by combining network
theory and keyword co-occurrence. Contour maps of open innovation are also created
on the basis of networks for visualization. The networks and contour maps can be
expressed differently by choosing different information as the main actors, such as
the paper author, the institute, the country or the author-keywords, to reflect
open innovation research structures in micro, meso, and macro-levels, respectively.
The quantitative ways of exploring open innovation research structure are
investigated to unveil important or emerging open innovation components as well as
to demonstrate visualization of the structure of global open innovation research.
The quantitative method provided in this project shows a possible way of
visualizing and evaluating research community structure and thus a computerized
calculation is possible for potential quantitative applications on open innovation
research management, e.g. R&D resource allocation, research performance evaluation,
and science map. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Scientific collaboration is often perceived as a joint global process that
involves researchers worldwide, regardless of their place of work and residence.
Globalization of science, in this respect, implies that collaboration among
scientists takes place along the lines of common topics and irrespective of the
spatial distances between the collaborators. The networks of collaborators, termed
'epistemic communities', should thus have a space-independent structure. This paper
shows that such a notion of globalized scientific collaboration is not supported by
empirical data. It introduces a novel approach of analyzing distance-dependent
probabilities of collaboration. The results of the analysis of six distinct
scientific fields reveal that intra-country collaboration is about 10-50 times more
likely to occur than international collaboration. Moreover, strong dependencies
exist between collaboration activity (measured in co-authorships) and spatial
distance when confined to national borders. However, the fact that distance becomes
irrelevant once collaboration is taken to the international scale suggests a
globalized science system that is strongly influenced by the gravity of local
science clusters. The similarity of the probability functions of the six science
fields analyzed suggests a universal mode of spatial governance that is independent
from the mode of knowledge creation in science. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This study examines global collaborative creativity through patentometrics and
social network analysis. Because patents are a direct output of innovative
activities, cross-border patents are used to analyze the trend of global
collaborative creativity. The results show linear growth of cross-border patents,
while numerous inventors have grown exponentially for collaborative creativity. The
number of inventors for global collaborative creativity trends have increased more
rapidly than the number of patents. The network for global collaborative creativity
is denser and shows a growing trend over a five-year interval. Both observed and
cosine-normalized numbers of k-cores in global collaborative creativity show a
growing trend, while the cosine-normalized k-cores increase slowly compared to the
observed one. Similarly, the social network analysis confirms a growing network of
global collaborative creativity, which is dense despite its small degree of growth.
This study also found that high values of "betweenness" tend to spread from core
countries to periphery countries. Collaborative creativity has globalized but
remains concentrated in core countries such as the U.S., the UK, France, Germany,
and Canada. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Adding community and dynamic to topic models
LA English

DE Social network; Semantic community; Topic mining; Dynamic
ID NETWORKS
AB The detection of communities in large social networks is receiving increasing
attention in a variety of research areas. Most existing community detection
approaches focus on the topology of social connections (e.g., coauthor, citation,
and social conversation) without considering their topic and dynamic features. In
this paper, we propose two models to detect communities by considering both topic
and dynamic features. First, the Community Topic Model (CTM) can identify
communities sharing similar topics. Second, the Dynamic CTM (DCTM) can capture the
dynamic features of communities and topics based on the Bernoulli distribution that
leverages the temporal continuity between consecutive timestamps. Both models were
tested on two datasets: ArnetMiner and Twitter. Experiments show that communities
with similar topics can be detected and the co-evolution of communities and topics
can be observed by these two models, which allow us to better understand the
dynamic features of social networks and make improved personalized recommendations.

CHARTS; OUTPUT
AB The effect of two different calculation methods for obtaining relative impact
indicators is modelled. Science policy considerations make it clear that evaluating
the sets of publications, the "ratio of the sums" method should be preferred over
the "mean of the ratios" method. Accordingly, determining the relative total impact
against the mean relative impact of the publications of teams or institutes may be
preferred. The special problem caused by relating the number of citations of an
individual article to the Garfield (Impact) Factor (or mean citedness) of the
publishing journal (or a set of journals selected as standard) lower than zero is
demonstrated by examples. The possible effects of the different share of
publications in different fields on the value of the "new crown" index are also
modelled. The assessment methods using several appropriately weighted indicators
which result in a composite index are recommended. The acronym "BMV" is suggested
to term the relative impact indicators (e.g. RCR, CPP/JCS(m), CPP/FCSm and RW) in
scientometrics. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper investigates the impact of referee reliability on the quality and
efficiency of peer review. We modeled peer review as a process based on knowledge
asymmetries and subject to evaluation bias. We tested various levels of referee
reliability and different mechanisms of reviewing effort distribution among agents.
We also tested different scientific community structures (cohesive vs. parochial)
and competitive science environments (high vs. low competition). We found that
referee behavior drastically affects peer review and an equal distribution of the
reviewing effort is beneficial only if the scientific community is homogeneous and
referee reliability is the rule. We also found that the Matthew effect in the
allocation of resources and credit is inherent to a 'winner takes all' well
functioning science system, more than a consequence of evaluation bias. (C) 2011

DE Bibliographic coupling; Consensus formation
ID JOURNAL REJECTION RATES; SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS; HIERARCHY; GRAPHS
AB The level of consensus in science has traditionally been measured by a number of
different methods. The variety is important as each method measures different
aspects of science and consensus. Citation analytical studies have previously
measured the level of consensus using the scientific journal as their unit of
analysis. To produce a more fine grained citation analysis one needs to study
consensus formation on an even more detailed level - i.e. the scientific document
or article. To do so, we have developed a new technique that measures consensus by
aggregated bibliographic couplings (ABC) between documents. The advantages of the
ABC-technique are demonstrated in a study of two selected disciplines in which the
levels of consensus are measured using the proposed technique. (C) 2011 Elsevier

science; Natural disaster; Tsunami; Japan; Public fund allocation
ID NATIONS
AB Suppose there is a scientist that writes a paper for a peer-reviewed journal.
How likely is it that a natural disaster will terminate, change, suspend or
discontinue some aspect of this editorial process? To answer this question, the aim
of present study was to determine the effects of a natural disaster on progress in
materials science research. The Tsunami event in Japan and materials science are
well suited to serve as a case study for both the development and application of a
system to evaluate the Academic Research Output immediately after a natural
disaster. In particular, the analysis focused on the short-term impacts of Japan's
triple disaster - earthquake, Tsunami, and nuclear accident (11 March, 2011) - on
the Academic Research Output in materials science subject from three different
areas: Sendai (Miyagi Prefecture), Tsukuba (Ibaraki Prefecture) and Kyoto (Kyoto
Prefecture). The last one has been used as an internal reference standard
(normal/non-disaster situation) for the comparison. A geographical cluster-based
study was conducted between 09 February and 10 April 2011. Consistent with the
hypothesis that a disaster might slow down knowledge production, the conclusion
showed that the Japan's triple disaster strongly influenced the Academic Research
Output of papers in the selected field of science. Using statistical data, these
findings show that the number of submitted papers and the cumulative number of
authors contributing to the field of materials science decreased immediately after
the March 11th events in the areas affected by disaster. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All

reliable proxy of the real impact of a work only if they are observed after
sufficient time has passed from publication date. In the present work the authors
investigate the effect of varying the time of citation observation on accuracy of
productivity rankings for research institutions. Research productivity measures are
calculated for all Italian universities active in the hard sciences in the 2001-
2003 period, by individual field and discipline, with the time of the citation
observation varying from 2004 to 2008. The objective is to support policy-makers in
choosing a citation window that optimizes the tradeoff between accuracy of rankings
and timeliness of the exercise. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The recently awakened discussion on the usability of averages of ratios (AoR)
compared to ratios of averages (RoA) has led to the mathematical results in this
paper. Based on the empirical results in Lariviere and Gingras (2011) we prove,
under reasonable conditions, the following relations between AoR and RoA for a set
of points:
(i) The regression line of RoA in function of AoR is the first bisectrix.
(ii) (AoR - RoA)/AoR in function of the number N of papers is a cloud of points
comprised between a multiple of 1 root N and - 1 root N.
(iii) (AoR - RoA)/AoR versus RoA has a decreasing regression line. (C) 2012

AB Recent advances in methods and techniques enable us to develop interactive
overlays to a global map of science based on aggregated citation relations among
the 9162 journals contained in the Science Citation Index and Social Science
Citation Index 2009. We first discuss the pros and cons of the various options:
cited versus citing, multidimensional scaling versus spring-embedded algorithms,
VOSViewer versus Gephi, and the various clustering algorithms and similarity
criteria. Our approach focuses on the positions of journals in the multidimensional
space spanned by the aggregated journal-journal citations. Using VOSViewer for the
resulting mapping, a number of choices can be left to the user; we provide default
options reflecting our preferences. Some examples are also provided; for example,
the potential of using this technique to assess the interdisciplinarity of
organizations and/or document sets. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Bornmann and Leydesdorff (2011) proposed methods based on Web of Science data to
identify field-specific excellence in cities where highly cited papers were
published more frequently than can be expected. Top performers in output are cities
in which authors are located who publish a number of highly cited papers that is
statistically significantly higher than can be expected for these cities. Using
papers published between 1989 and 2009 in information science improvements to the
methods of Bornmann and Leydesdorff (2011) are presented and an alternative mapping
approach based on the Integrated Impact Indicator (I3) is introduced here. The I3
indicator was developed by Leydesdorff and Bornmann (2011b). (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

publication records

AB Field normalized citation rates are well-established indicators for research
performance from the broadest aggregation levels such as countries, down to
institutes and research teams. When applied to still more specialized publication
sets at the level of individual scientists, also a more accurate delimitation is
required of the reference domain that provides the expectations to which a
performance is compared. This necessity for sharper accuracy challenges standard
methodology based on pre-defined subject categories. This paper proposes a way to
define a reference domain that is more strongly delimited than in standard
methodology, by building it up out of cells of the partition created by the pre-
defined subject categories and their intersections. This partition approach can be
applied to different existing field normalization variants. The resulting reference
domain lies between those generated by standard field normalization and journal
normalization. Examples based on fictive and real publication records illustrate
how the potential impact on results can exceed or be smaller than the effect of
other currently debated normalization variants, depending on the case studied. The
proposed Partition-based Field Normalization is expected to offer advantages in
particular at the level of individual scientists and other very specific
publication records, such as publication output from interdisciplinary research.

besides their quality?

JOURNALS; PERFORMANCE; INDICATORS; FREQUENCY; BEHAVIOR
AB A number of bibliometric studies point out that citation counts are a function
of many variables besides scientific quality. In this paper our aim is to
investigate these factors that usually impact the number of citation counts, using
an extensive data set from the field of chemistry. The data set contains roughly
2000 manuscripts that were submitted to the journal Angewandte Chemie International
Edition (AC-IE) as short communications, reviewed by external reviewers, and either
published in AC-IE or, if not accepted for publication by AC-IE, published
elsewhere. As the reviewers' ratings of the importance of the manuscripts' results
are also available to us, we can examine the extent to which certain factors that
previous studies demonstrated to be generally correlated with citation counts
increase the impact of papers, controlling for the quality of the manuscripts (as
measured by reviewers' ratings of the importance of the findings) in the
statistical analysis. As the results show, besides being associated with quality,
citation counts are correlated with the citation performance of the cited
references, the language of the publishing journal, the chemical subfield, and the
reputation of the authors. In this study no statistically significant correlation
was found between citation counts and number of authors. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Publication patterns of 79 forest scientists awarded major international
forestry prizes during 1990-2010 were compared with the journal classification and
ranking promoted as part of the 'Excellence in Research for Australia' (ERA) by the
Australian Research Council. The data revealed that these scientists exhibited an
elite publication performance during the decade before and two decades following
their first major award. An analysis of their 1703 articles in 431 journals
revealed substantial differences between the journal choices of these elite
scientists and the ERA classification and ranking of journals. Implications from
these findings are that additional cross-classifications should be added for many
journals, and there should be an adjustment to the ranking of several journals
relevant to the ERA Field of Research classified as 0705 Forestry Sciences. Crown

AB This article reports a comparative study of five measures that quantify the
degree of research collaboration, including the collaborative index, the degree of
collaboration, the collaborative coefficient, the revised collaborative
coefficient, and degree centrality. The empirical results showed that these
measures all capture the notion of research collaboration, which is consistent with
prior studies. Moreover, the results showed that degree centrality, the revised
collaborative coefficient, and the degree of collaboration had the highest
coefficient estimates on research productivity, the average JIF, and the average
number of citations, respectively. Overall, this article suggests that the degree
of collaboration and the revised collaborative coefficient are superior measures
that can be applied to bibliometric studies for future researchers. (C) 2011

AB This paper presents an empirical analysis of two different methodologies for
calculating national citation indicators: whole counts and fractionalised counts.
The aim of our study is to investigate the effect on relative citation indicators
when citations to documents are fractionalised among the authoring countries. We
have performed two analyses: a time series analysis of one country and a cross-
sectional analysis of 23 countries. The results show that all countries' relative
citation indicators are lower when fractionalised counting is used. Further, the
difference between whole and fractionalised counts is generally greatest for the
countries with the highest proportion of internationally co-authored articles. In
our view there are strong arguments in favour of using fractionalised counts to
calculate relative citation indexes at the national level, rather than using whole
counts, which is the most common practice today. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB In May 2011 the Bing Search API 2.0 had become the only major international web
search engine data source available for automatic offline processing for webometric
research. This article describes its key features, contrasting them with previous
web search data sources, and discussing implications for webometric research.
Overall, it seems that large-scale quantitative web research is possible with the
Bing Search API 2.0, including query splitting, but that legal issues require the
redesign of webometric software to ensure that all results obtained from Bing are
displayed directly to the user. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Recent development saw concerted efforts by emerging countries to transform
their industrial-based economy to post-industrial knowledge-based economy. The
growth of science and technology is necessary to support this economic
transformation strategy. Based on the concept of functionality development of a
growth model, this study attempts to analyze the dynamism and sustainability of
growth in science and technology of selected Asian emerging economies. Using the
number of published papers and patents as proxies, bi-logistic growth functions
were fitted to examine the prolongation ability of science and technology, and the
time at which each functionality development emerges. The perspective of a paradigm
shift from industrial to knowledge-based economic development is taken into
consideration in the analysis. The estimated prolongation ability of the newly
industrialized economies (NIEs) including South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore
suggests significant transformation of their innovation system that led to a higher
degree of functionality, while developing economies such as China, Malaysia and
Thailand show no significant change over the years. The results suggest that the
NIEs have succeeded in developing new growth trajectories that are beneficial for
the transformation towards a knowledge-based economy. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB The study of the informetric distributions, such as distributions of citations
and impact factors is one of the most relevant topics in the current informetric
research. Several laws for modeling impact factor based on ranks have been
proposed, including Zipf, Lavalette and the two-exponent law proposed by Mansilla
et al. (2007). In this paper, the underlying probabilistic quantile function
corresponding to the Mansilla's two-exponent law is obtained. This result is
particularly relevant, since it allows us to know the underlying population, to
learn about all its features and to use statistical inference procedures. Several
probabilistic descriptive measures are obtained, including moments, Lorenz and
Leimkuhler curves and Gini index. The distribution of the order statistics is
derived. Least squares estimates are obtained. The different results are
illustrated using the data of the impact factors in eight relevant scientific

AB A variant of the h-index, named the stochastic h-index, is proposed. This new
index is obtained by adding to the h-index the probability, under a specific
stochastic model, that the h-index will increase by one or more within a given time
interval. The stochastic h-index thus extends the h-index to the real line and has
a direct interpretation as the distance to the next higher index value. We show how
the stochastic h-index can be evaluated and compare it with other variants of the
h-index which purportedly indicate the distance to a higher h-index. (C) 2011

AB We propose a method to identify the journals or proceedings that are most highly
esteemed by a research group over some time frame. Using open publication
databases, we identify the experts in the community, and analyse their publication
pattern, and then use this as a guideline for evaluating scientific outputs of
other groups of researchers publishing in the same domain. To illustrate the
practicality of our method, we analyse the scientific output of Korean researchers
in the security subject domain from 2004 to 2009, and comparing this groups' output
with that of well-known researchers. Our empirical analysis demonstrates that there
is a persistent gap between these two research groups' publications impact over
this period, although the absolute number of journal publications greatly increased
over recent years. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Citation networks; Bibliometrics; Qualitative assessment; Citation
dynamics
ID SLEEPING BEAUTIES; DISTRIBUTIONS; PERFORMANCE; SCIENCE
AB We show that essentially local dynamics of citation networks bring special
information about the relevance/quality of a paper. Up to some rescaling, they
exhibit universal behavior in citation dynamics: temporal patterns are remarkably
consistent across disciplines, and uncover a prediction method for citations based
on the structure of references only, at publication time. Above-average cited
papers universally focus extensively on their own recent subfield - as such,
citation counts essentially select what may plausibly be considered as the most
disciplinary and normal science; whereas papers which have a peculiar dynamics,
such as re-birthing scientific works - 'rediscovered classics' or 'early birds' -
are comparatively poorly cited, despite their plausible relevance for the
underlying communities. The "rebirth index" that we propose to quantify this
phenomenon may be used as a complementary quality-defining criterion, in addition
to final citation counts. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Citation numbers are extensively used for assessing the quality of scientific
research. The use of raw citation counts is generally misleading, especially when
applied to cross-disciplinary comparisons, since the average number of citations
received is strongly dependent on the scientific discipline of reference of the
paper. Measuring and eliminating biases in citation patterns is crucial for a fair
use of citation numbers. Several numerical indicators have been introduced with
this aim, but so far a specific statistical test for estimating the fairness of
these numerical indicators has not been developed. Here we present a statistical
method aimed at estimating the effectiveness of numerical indicators in the
suppression of citation biases. The method is simple to implement and can be easily
generalized to various scenarios. As a practical example we test, in a controlled
case, the fairness of fractional citation count, which has been recently proposed
as a tool for cross-discipline comparison. We show that this indicator is not able
to remove biases in citation patterns and performs much worse than the rescaling of
citation counts with average values. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Research topics and research communities are not disconnected from each other:
communities and topics are interwoven and co-evolving. Yet, scientometric
evaluations of topics and communities have been conducted independently and
synchronically, with researchers often relying on homogeneous unit of analysis,
such as authors, journals, institutions, or topics. Therefore, new methods are
warranted that examine the dynamic relationship between topics and communities.
This paper examines how research topics are mixed and matched in evolving research
communities by using a hybrid approach which integrates both topic identification
and community detection techniques. Using a data set on information retrieval (IR)
publications, two layers of enriched information are constructed and contrasted:
one is the communities detected through the topology of coauthorship network and
the other is the topics of the communities detected through the topic model. We
find evidence to support the assumption that IR communities and topics are
interwoven and co-evolving, and topics can be used to understand the dynamics of
community structures. We recommend the use of the hybrid approach to study the
dynamic interactions of topics and communities. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

TI Empirical study of the growth dynamics in real career h-index sequences

DE h-Index sequence; Real career path; h-Index core
ID HIRSCH INDEX; MODEL
AB Based on historical citation data from the ISI Web of Science, this paper
introduces a methodology to automatically calculate and classify the real career h-
index sequences of scientists. Such a classification is based on the convexity-
concavity features of the different temporal segments of h-index sequences. Five
categories are identified, namely convex, concave, S-shaped, IS-shaped and linear.
As a case study, the h-index sequences of several Nobel Prize winners in Medicine,
Chemistry and Economics are investigated. Two proposed factors influencing the
growth of the h-index, namely the "freshness" of the h-index core and changes in
the rank positions of papers near the h-index point are studied. It is found that
the h-index core's "freshness" is particularly relevant to the growth of the h-
index. Moreover, although in general more publications lead to an increase of the
h-index, the key role is played by those papers near the h-index point. (C) 2011

AB The evolution of the Web has promoted a growing interest in social network
analysis, such as community detection. Among many different community detection
approaches, there are two kinds that we want to address: one considers the graph
structure of the network (topology-based community detection approach); the other
one takes the textual information of the network nodes into consideration (topic-
based community detection approach). This paper conducted systematic analysis of
applying a topology-based community detection approach and a topic-based community
detection approach to the coauthorship networks of the information retrieval area
and found that: (1) communities detected by the topology-based community detection
approach tend to contain different topics within each community; and (2)
communities detected by the topic-based community detection approach tend to
contain topologically-diverse sub-communities within each community. The future
community detection approaches should not only emphasize the relationship between
communities and topics, but also consider the dynamic changes of communities and
topics. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID INDEX; IMPACT; OUTPUT
AB We propose a novel yet practical method capturing an individual's research or
innovation performance by the shape centroids of the h-core and h-tail areas of its
publications or patents. A large number of individuals' relative performance with
respect to their h-cores and h-tails can be simultaneously positioned and
conveniently observed in two-dimensional coordinate systems. Two approaches are
further proposed to the utilization of the two-dimensional distribution of shape
centroids. The first approach specifically determines, within a group of
individuals, those outperforming or being outperformed by a target individual. The
second approach provides a quick qualitative categorization of the individuals so
that the nature of their performance is revealed. Using patent assignees as an
illustrative case, the approaches are tested with empirical patent assignee data.

TI Progressive nucleation mechanism and its application to the growth of
journals, articles and authors in scientific fields
LA English
DT Article
DE Growth behavior of items; Power-law relation; Progressive nucleation
mechanism; Saturation of item/field
AB The basic concepts of progressive nucleation mechanism are described and the
final equations of the mechanism are used to analyze the growth of articles in
three randomly selected databases from 20 different databases in humanities
(philosopher's index, set 1), social sciences (exceptional child education, set 5)
and science and technology (food science and technology, set 10), respectively,
covering the period 1968-1987, previously analyzed by Egghe and Ravichandra Rao
(1992, Scientometrics 25 (1), 5-46), and the growth of journals, articles and
authors in malaria research for the period 1955-2005, reported recently by
Ravichandra Rao and Srivastava (2010, Journal of Informetrics 4 (1), 249-256) and
compared with the predictions of the power-law equation. Analysis of the former
data revealed that: (1) the progressive nucleation mechanism describes the data
better than the power-law relation, (2) the field of social sciences is saturated
much earlier than science and technology but publication activity in humanities is
saturated much later, and (3) that social sciences have the maximum growth,
followed by lower growth in humanities and the lowest growth in science and
technology. The data on journals J(t), papers N(t) and authors W(t) against
publication year Y in malaria research can be described equally well by equations
of the power-law and progressive nucleation mechanism, and the growth of journals
J(t) and articles N(t) is intimately connected with the growth of authors W(t). (C)

ID INDEX
AB Dependence of citations L(t) at time t on the publication duration t of 10
arbitrarily selected Polish professors is analyzed using equations based on power
law and exponential growth and on progressive nucleation mechanism for overall
crystallization in fixed volume. The former two approaches are well known in the
bibliometric literature, but the last approach is new for the analysis of growth of
citations and other related phenomena. It was found that: (1) power-law relation
and exponential growth are relatively inadequate to analyze the data of all authors
due to large scatter in the L(t) data of various authors, (2) in view of poor fit
at low or high values of t, the exponential growth relation is worse than the
power-law relation, and (3) the progressive nucleation mechanism describes the data
reasonably well and gives information on the processes of sources of citations and
the growth of theses citation sources. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The ongoing globalisation of science has undisputedly a major impact on how and
where scientific research is being conducted nowadays. Yet, the big picture remains
blurred. It is largely unknown where this process is heading, and at which rate.
Which countries are leading or lagging? Many of its key features are difficult if
not impossible to capture in measurements and comparative statistics. Our empirical
study measures the extent and growth of scientific globalisation in terms of
physical distances between co-authoring researchers. Our analysis, drawing on 21
million research publications across all countries and fields of science, reveals
that contemporary science has globalised at a fairly steady rate during recent
decades. The average collaboration distance per publication has increased from 334
km in 1980 to 1553 km in 2009. Despite significant differences in globalisation
rates across countries and fields of science, we observe a pervasive process in
motion, moving towards a truly interconnected global science system. (C) 2011

over a five-year period beginning with the introduction of the h-index. The study
is based on a reliable and representative publication set of 755 papers retrieved
from the Web of Science database using keywords and citation links. In the course
of the study we analyse several aspects of the emergence of this topic, the
differentiation of methodological research, its application within and outside the
field and the dissemination process of information among different disciplines in
the sciences and social sciences. Finally, a cluster analysis of h-related
literature is conducted. The hybrid clustering algorithm results in four clusters,
which depict two different aspects each of basic and applied research related to
the h-index and its derivatives. Crown Copyright (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier

AB In this study, we develop a theoretical model based on social network theories
and analytical methods for exploring collaboration (co-authorship) networks of
scholars. We use measures from social network analysis (SNA) (i.e., normalized
degree centrality, normalized closeness centrality, normalized betweenness
centrality, normalized eigenvector centrality, average ties strength, and
efficiency) for examining the effect of social networks on the (citation-based)
performance of scholars in a given discipline (i.e., information systems). Results
from our statistical analysis using a Poisson regression model suggest that
research performance of scholars (g-index) is positively correlated with four SNA
measures except for the normalized betweenness centrality and the normalized
closeness centrality measures. Furthermore, it reveals that only normalized degree
centrality, efficiency, and average ties strength have a positive significant
influence on the g-index (as a performance measure). The normalized eigenvector
centrality has a negative significant influence on the g-index. Based on these
results, we can imply that scholars, who are connected to many distinct scholars,
have a better citation-based performance (g-index) than scholars with fewer
connections. Additionally, scholars with large average ties strengths (i.e.,
repeated co-authorships) show a better research performance than those with low tie
strengths (e.g., single co-authorships with many different scholars). The results
related to efficiency show that scholars, who maintain a strong co-authorship
relationship to only one co-author of a group of linked co-authors, perform better
than those researchers with many relationships to the same group of linked co-
authors. The negative effect of the normalized eigenvector suggests that scholars
should work with many students instead of other well-performing scholars.
Consequently, we can state that the professional social network of researchers can
be used to predict the future performance of researchers. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

analysis of their occurrence and correlation with citation impact
LA English

Bootstrap; Heatmaps
ID CONFIDENCE-INTERVALS; BOOTSTRAP; ARTICLES; ASTERISK; COLONS
AB We investigated the occurrence of non-alphanumeric characters in a randomized
subset of over almost 650,000 titles of scientific publications from the Web of
Science database. Additionally, for almost 500,000 of these publications we
correlated occurrence with impact, using the field-normalised citation metric
CPP/FCSm. We compared occurrence and correlation with impact both at in general and
for specific disciplines and took into account the variation within sets by (non-
parametrically) bootstrapping the calculation of impact values. We also compared
use and impact of individual characters in the 30 fields in which non-alphanumeric
characters occur most frequently, by using heatmaps that clustered and reordered
fields and characters. We conclude that the use of some non-alphanumeric
characters, such as the hyphen and colon, is common in most titles and that not
including such characters generally correlates negatively with impact. Specific
disciplines on the other hand, may show either a negative, absent, or positive
correlation. We also found that thematically related science fields use non-
alphanumeric characters in comparable numbers, but that impact associated with such
characters shows a less strong thematic relation. Overall, it appears that authors
cannot influence success of publications by including non-alphanumeric characters
in fields where this is not already commonplace. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier

AB The current work proposes an application of DEA methodology for measurement of
technical and allocative efficiency of university research activity. The analysis
is based on bibliometric data from the Italian university system for the five-year
period 2004-2008. Technical and allocative efficiency is measured with input being
considered as a university's research staff, classified according to academic rank,
and with output considered as the field-standardized impact of the research product
realized by these staff. The analysis is applied to all scientific disciplines of
the so-called hard sciences, and conducted at subfield level, thus at a greater
level of detail than ever before achieved in national-scale research assessments.

AB The purpose of this study is to: (1) develop a ranking of peer-reviewed AI
journals; (2) compare the consistency of journal rankings developed with two
dominant ranking techniques, expert surveys and journal impact measures; and (3)
investigate the consistency of journal ranking scores assigned by different
categories of expert judges. The ranking was constructed based on the survey of 873
active AI researchers who ranked the overall quality of 182 peer-reviewed AI
journals. It is concluded that expert surveys and citation impact journal ranking
methods cannot be used as substitutes. Instead, they should be used as
complementary approaches. The key problem of the expert survey ranking technique is
that in their ranking decisions, respondents are strongly influenced by their
current research interests. As a result, their scores merely reflect their present
research preferences rather than an objective assessment of each journal's quality.
In addition, the application of the expert survey method favors journals that
publish more articles per year. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Is concentration of university research associated with better research
performance?
LA English
DT Article
DE University rankings; Citation analysis; Research performance; Research
concentration; Disciplinary specialization; National academic systems;

ID ONCOLOGY; RANKINGS
AB This paper analyses relationships between university research performance and
concentration of university research. Using the number of publications and their
citation impact extracted from Scopus as proxies of research activity and research
performance, respectively, it examines at a national level for 40 major countries
the distribution of published research articles among its universities, and at an
institutional level for a global set of 1500 universities the distribution of
papers among 16 main subject fields.
Both at a national and an institutional level it was found that a larger
publication output is associated with a higher citation impact. If one conceives
the number of publications as a measure of concentration, this outcome indicates
that, in university research, concentration and performance are positively related,
although the underlying causal relationships are complex. But a regression analysis
found no evidence that more concentration of research among a country's
universities or among an institution's main fields is associated with better
overall performance.
The study reveals a tendency that the research in a particular subject field
conducted in universities specializing in other fields outperforms the work in that
field in institutions specializing in that field. This outcome may reflect that it
is multi-disciplinary research that is the most promising and visible at the
international research front, and that this type of research tends to develop
better in universities specializing in a particular domain and expanding their
capabilities in that domain towards other fields. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

ID BIBLIOMETRIC INDICATORS; SCIENCE; COUNTS; TOOL
AB With the passage of more time from the original date of publication, the measure
of the impact of scientific works using subsequent citation counts becomes more
accurate. However the measurement of individual and organizational research
productivity should ideally refer to a period with closing date just prior to the
evaluation exercise. Therefore it is necessary to compromise between accuracy and
timeliness. This work attempts to provide an order of magnitude for the error in
measurement that occurs with decreasing the time lapse between date of publication
and citation count. The analysis is conducted by scientific discipline on the basis
of publications indexed in the Thomson Reuters Italian National Citation Report.

AB We introduce the h-degree of a node as a basic indicator for weighted networks.
The h-degree (d(h)) of a node is the number d(h) if this node has at least d(h)
links with other nodes and the strength of each of these links is greater than or
equal to d(h). Based on the notion of h-degree other notions are developed such as
h-centrality and h-centralization, leading to a new set of indicators
characterizing nodes in a network. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID WEB-OF-SCIENCE; JOURNAL IMPACT; SCOPUS
AB Journal impact factors continue to play an important role in research output
assessment, in spite of the criticisms and debates around them. The impact factor
rankings provided in the Journal Citation Reports (JCR (TM)) database by Thompson
Reuters have enjoyed a position of monopoly for many years. But this has recently
changed with the availability of the Scopus (TM) database and its associated
journal ranking published in the Scimago Journal Rank (SJR) Web page, as the former
provides a citation database with similar inclusion criteria to those used in the
JCR and the latter and openly accessible impact factor-based ranking. The
availability of alternatives to the JCR impact factor listings using a different
citation database raises the question of the extent to which the two rankings can
be considered equally valid for research evaluation purposes. This paper reports
the results of a contrast of both listings in Computer Science-related topics. It
attempts to answer the validity question by comparing the impact factors of
journals ranked in both listings and their relative position. The results show that
impact factors for journals included in both rankings are strongly correlated, with
SJR impact factors in general slightly higher, confirming previous studies related
to other disciplines. Nonetheless, the consideration of tercile and quartile
position of journal yields some divergences for journals appearing in both rankings
that need to be accounted for in research evaluation procedures. (C) 2011 Elsevier

AB This paper attempts to build a classification model according to the research
products created by those institutes and hence to design specific evaluation
processes. Several scientific input/output indicators belonging to 109 research
institutes from the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) were selected. A
multidimensional approach was proposed to resume these indicators in various
components. A clustering analysis was used to classify the institutes according to
their scores with those components (principal component analysis). Moreover, the
validity of the a priori classification was tested and the most discriminant
variables were detected (linear discriminant analysis). Results show that there are
three types of institutes according to their research outputs: Humanistic,
Scientific and Technological. It is argue that these differences oblige to design
more precise assessment exercises which focus on the particular results of each
type of institute. We conclude that this method permits to build more precise
research assessment exercises which consider the varied nature of the scientific
activity. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

journals. Based on the findings, it was concluded that the KM/IC discipline
represents a very young, attractive academic field that welcomes contributions from
a variety of academics and practitioners. In their paper acceptance decisions,
KM/IC journal editors are not biased towards a small group of highly productive
researchers, which is a positive sign that the field has been progressing in the
right direction. The discipline is driven more by academics than by practitioners,
and the distribution of articles is more concentrated among a few academic but not
practitioner institutions. It was also observed that the Yule-Simon model and
Lotka's square law may produce different distributions with respect to
institutions. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper presents the first meta-analysis of studies that computed
correlations between the h index and variants of the h index (such as the g index;
in total 37 different variants) that have been proposed and discussed in the
literature. A high correlation between the h index and its variants would indicate
that the h index variants hardly provide added information to the h index. This
meta-analysis included 135 correlation coefficients from 32 studies. The studies
were based on a total sample size of N = 9005; on average, each study had a sample
size of n = 257. The results of a three-level cross-classified mixed-effects meta-
analysis show a high correlation between the h index and its variants: Depending on
the model, the mean correlation coefficient varies between 8 and 9. This means that
there is redundancy between most of the h index variants and the h index. There is
a statistically significant study-to-study variation of the correlation
coefficients in the information they yield. The lowest correlation coefficients
with the h index are found for the h index variants MII and m index. Hence, these h
index variants make a non-redundant contribution to the h index. (C) 2011 Elsevier

AB In the case of the scientometric evaluation of multi- or interdisciplinary units
one risks to compare apples with oranges: each paper has to be assessed in
comparison to an appropriate reference set. We suggest that the set of citing
papers can be considered as the relevant representation of the field of impact. In
order to normalize for differences in citation behavior among fields, citations can
be fractionally counted proportionately to the length of the reference lists in the
citing papers. This new method enables us to compare among units with different
disciplinary affiliations at the paper level and also to assess the statistical
significance of differences among sets. Twenty-seven departments of the Tsinghua
University in Beijing are thus compared. Among them, the Department of Chinese
Language and Linguistics is upgraded from the 19th to the second position in the
ranking. The overall impact of 19 of the 27 departments is not significantly
different at the 5% level when thus normalized for different citation potentials.

and impact? A case study in the Library and Information Science field
LA English
DT Article
DE Proceedings papers; Document type; Conference; Library and Information
Science; Web of Science
ID BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS; PUBLICATION
AB In 2008, the type of document "proceedings paper" (PP) was assigned in the WoS
database to journal articles which were initially presented at a conference and
later adapted for publication in a journal. Since the use of two different labels
("article" and "proceedings paper") might lead to infer differences in their
relevance and/or quality, this paper presents a comparative study of standard
journal articles and PP in journals to explore potential differences between them.
The study focuses on the Library and Information Science field in the Web of
Science database and covers the 1990-2008 period. PP approximately account for 9%
of the total number of articles in this field, two-thirds of which are published in
monographic issues devoted to conferences, which tend to be concentrated in
specific journals. Proceedings papers emerge as an heterogeneous set comprising PP
in ordinary issues, similar to standard articles in structure and impact of
research; and PP in monographic issues, which seem to be less comprehensive and
tend to receive less citations. Faster publication of PP in monographic than in
ordinary issues may conceal differences in the review process undergone by either
type of paper. The main implications of these results for authors,
bibliometricians, journal editors and research evaluators are pointed out. (C) 2011

ID JOURNAL GATEKEEPERS
AB The structural properties of the network generated by the editorial activities
of the members of the boards of "Information Science & Library Science" journals
are explored through network analysis techniques. The crossed presence of scholars
on editorial boards, the phenomenon called interlocking editorship, is considered a
proxy of the similarity of editorial policies. The evidences support the idea that
this group of journals is better described as a set of only relatively connected
subfields. In particular two main subfields are identified, consisting of research
oriented journals devoted respectively to LIS and MIS. The links between these two
subsets are weak. Around these two subsets there are a lot of (relatively) isolated
professional journals or journals characterized more by their subject-matter
content than by their focus on information flows. It is possible to suggest that
this configuration of the network may be the consequence of the youthfulness of
Information Science & Library Science, which has not permitted yet to reach a
general consensus through scholars on research aims, methods and instruments. (C)

levels of aggregation

DE Citations; Research evaluation; Normalization
ID IMPACT INDICATORS; CITATION IMPACT; CROWN INDICATOR; PUBLICATION
AB In the recent debate on the use of averages of ratios (AoR) and ratios of
averages (RoA) for the compilation of field-normalized citation rates, little
evidence has been provided on the different results obtained by the two methods at
various levels of aggregation. This paper provides such an empirical analysis at
the level of individual researchers, departments, institutions and countries. Two
datasets are used: 147,547 papers published between 2000 and 2008 and assigned to
14,379 Canadian university professors affiliated to 508 departments, and all papers
indexed in the Web of Science for the same period (N = 8,221,926) assigned to all
countries and institutions. Although there is a strong relationship between the two
measures at each of these levels, a pairwise comparison of AoR and RoA shows that
the differences between all the distributions are statistically significant and,
thus, that the two methods are not equivalent and do not give the same results.
Moreover, the difference between both measures is strongly influenced by the number
of papers published as well as by their impact scores: the difference between AoR
and RoA is greater for departments, institutions and countries with low RoA scores.
Finally, our results show that RoA relative impact indicators do not add up to
unity (as they should by definition) at the level of the reference dataset, whereas
the AoR does have that property. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study uses bibliographic coupling to identify missing relevant patent
links, in order to construct a comprehensive citation network. Missing citation
links can be added by taking the missing relevant patent links into account. The
Pareto principle is used to determine the threshold of bibliographic coupling
strength, in order to identify the missing relevant patent links. Comparisons
between the original patent citation network and the comprehensive patent citation
network with the missing relevant patent links are illustrated at both the patent
and assignee levels. Light emitting diode (LED) illuminating technology is chosen
as the case study. The relationships between the patents and the assignees are
obviously enhanced after adding the missing relevant patent links. The results show
that the growth rates on both the total number and the average number of links have
apparently improved at the patent level. At the assignee level, the number of
linked assignees and the average number of links between two assignees are
increased. The differences between the two citation networks are further examined
by means of the Freeman vertex betweenness centrality and Johnson's hierarchical
clustering. The patents with more new links to other patents have distinct results
in terms of the Freeman vertex betweenness centrality. The enhancement of links
among patents also results in different clustering. Crown Copyright (C) 2011

AB The outgrow index measures to which extent an article outgrows - in terms of
citations - the references on which it is based. In this article, three types of
time series of outgrow indices and one outgrow index matrix are introduced.
Examples of these time series are given illustrating the newly introduced concepts.
These time series expand the toolbox for citation analysis by focusing on a
specific subnetwork of the global citation network. It is stated that citation
analysis has three application areas: information retrieval, research evaluation
and structural citation network studies. This contribution is explicitly placed
among structural network studies. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Complex networks may undergo random and/or systematic failures in some of their
components, i.e. nodes and edges. These failures may influence various network
properties. In this article, for a number of real-world as well as Watts-Strogatz
model networks, we investigated the profile of the network small-worldness as
random failures, i.e. errors, or systematic failures, i.e. attacks, occurred in the
nodes. In errors nodes are randomly removed along with all their tipping edges,
while in attacks the nodes with highest degrees are removed from the network.
Interestingly, in many cases, the small-worldness of violated networks increased as
more nodes underwent an attack. This indicates an important role of the hub nodes
in controlling the small-worldness of Watts-Strogatz networks. The profile of
changes in the small-worldness as a result of errors/attacks was independent of
network size, while it was influenced by average degree and rewiring probability of
Watts-Strogatz model. We also found that the pattern of the changes of the small-
worldness in real-world networks is completely different than that of the Watts-
Strogatz networks. Therefore, although Watts-Strogatz model is often used for
constructing networks with small-world property, the resulting networks have
different properties compared to real-world ones in terms of robustness in the
small-worldness index against errors/attacks. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This work maps and analyses cross-citations in the areas of Biology,
Mathematics, Physics and Medicine in the English version of Wikipedia, which are
represented as an undirected complex network where the entries correspond to nodes
and the citations among the entries are mapped as edges. We found a high value of
clustering coefficient for the areas of Biology and Medicine, and a small value for
Mathematics and Physics. The topological organization is also different for each
network, including a modular structure for Biology and Medicine, a sparse structure
for Mathematics and a dense core for Physics. The networks have degree
distributions that can be approximated by a power-law with a cut-off. The
assortativity of the isolated networks has also been investigated and the results
indicate distinct patterns for each subject. We estimated the betweenness
centrality of each node considering the full Wikipedia network, which contains the
nodes of the four subjects and the edges between them. In addition, the average
shortest path length between the subjects revealed a close relationship between the
subjects of Biology and Physics, and also between Medicine and Physics. Our results
indicate that the analysis of the full Wikipedia network cannot predict the
behavior of the isolated categories since their properties can be very different
from those observed in the full network. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB We define the generalized Wu- and Kosmulski-indices, allowing for general
parameters of multiplication or exponentiation. We then present formulae for these
generalized indices in a Lotkaian framework.
Next we characterise these indices in terms of their dependence on the quotient
of the average number of items per source in the m-core divided by the overall
average ( m is any generalized Wu- or Kosmulski-index).
As a consequence of these results we show that the fraction of used items (used
in the definition of m) in the m-core is independent of the parameter and equals
one divided by the overall average. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Web 2.0 technologies are finding their way into academics: specialized social
bookmarking services allow researchers to store and share scientific literature
online. By bookmarking and tagging articles, academic prosumers generate new
information about resources, i.e. usage statistics and content description of
scientific journals. Given the lack of global download statistics, the authors
propose the application of social bookmarking data to journal evaluation. For a set
of 45 physics journals all 13,608 bookmarks from CiteULike, Connotea and BibSonomy
to documents published between 2004 and 2008 were analyzed. This article explores
bookmarking data in STM and examines in how far it can be used to describe the
perception of periodicals by the readership. Four basic indicators are defined,
which analyze different aspects of usage: Usage Ratio, Usage Diffusion, Article
Usage Intensity and Journal Usage Intensity. Tags are analyzed to describe a
reader-specific view on journal content. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper proposes an empirical analysis of several scientists based on their
time regularity, defined as the ability of generating an active and stable research
output over time, in terms of both quantity/publications and impact/citations. In
particular, we empirically analyse three recent bibliometric tools to perform
qualitative/quantitative evaluations under the new perspective of regularity. These
tools are respectively (1) the PY/CY diagram, (2) the publication/citation Ferrers
diagram and triad indicators, and (3) a year-by-year comparison of the scientists'
output (Borda's ranking). Results of the regularity analysis are then compared with
those obtained under the classical perspective of overall production.
The proposed evaluation tools can be applied to competitive examinations for
research position/promotion, as complementary instruments to the commonly adopted
bibliometric techniques. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Meaning can be generated when information is related at a systemic level. Such a
system can be an observer, but also a discourse, for example, operationalized as a
set of documents. The measurement of semantics as similarity in patterns
(correlations) and latent variables (factor analysis) has been enhanced by computer
techniques and the use of statistics; for example, in "latent semantic analysis".
This communication provides an introduction, an example, pointers to relevant
software, and summarizes the choices that can be made by the analyst. Visualization
("semantic mapping") is thus made more accessible. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All

DE Hirsch index; Egghe index; Citation analysis; Axiomatization
AB The Hirsch index and the Egghe index are both numbers that synthesize a
researcher's output. The h-index associated with researcher r is the maximum number
h such that r has h papers with at least h citations each. The g-index is the
maximum number g of papers by r such that the average number of citations of the g
papers is at least g. Both indices are characterized in terms of four axioms. One
identifies outputs deserving index at most one. A second one establishes a strong
monotonicity condition. A third one requires the index to satisfy a property of
subadditivity. The last one consists of a monotonicity condition, for the h-index,
and an aggregate monotonicity condition, for the g-index. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

AB The three important research domains, nanotechnology, biotechnology and
pharmaceuticals, integratedly breed a promising multidisciplinary domain in the
post-genomic age, which was recently defined by the term "nanobiopharmaceuticals".
In this paper, we firstly investigate its general development profiles, and then
implement cross-country comparisons in its research performances, with the focus on
the world share, relative research effort, impact and quality of five productive
countries. Furthermore, from the science mapping perspective, we build the co-word
and co-citation networks respectively for detecting its intellectual structure as
well as evolution footprints of intellectual turning points. The growth
examinations based on the datasets from WoS, MEDLINE and BIOSIS Review confirm the
exponential growth of publications and citations in nanobiopharm-research. The
cross-country comparisons show that USA is the leading country, and China is an up-
and-coming contributor. The visual mapping structures by co-occurrence analyses
show that nanobiopharm-research is currently focused on the drug development for
improving biodistribution, bioavailability and pharmacokinetics, and the drug
delivery for improving delivery of existing drugs. Some pivot publications is
identified by CiteSpace, which work as structural holes, research fronts and
intellectual bases for the nanobiopharm-research development in the given time
window. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

LA English
DT Article
DE Bibliometric indices; h-Index; c-Index
ID H-INDEX; IMPACT; SCIENTISTS; CITATIONS; RANKING; NUMBERS
AB The popular h-index used to measure scientific output can be described in terms
of a pool of evaluated objects (the papers), a quality function on the evaluated
objects (the number of citations received by each paper) and a sentencing line
crossing the origin, whose intersection with the graph of the quality function
yields the index value (in the h-index this is a line with slope 1). Based on this
abstraction, we present a new index, the c-index, in which the evaluated objects
are the citations received by an author, a group of authors, a journal, etc., the
quality function of a citation is the collaboration distance between the authors of
the cited and the citing papers, and the sentencing line can take slopes between 0
and infinity. As a result, the new index counts only those citations which are
significant enough, where significance is proportional to collaboration distance.
Several advantages of the new c-index with respect to previous proposals are
discussed. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB As part of its program of 'Excellence in Research for Australia' (ERA), the
Australian Research Council ranked journals into four categories (A*, A, B, and C)
in preparation for their performance evaluation of Australian universities. The
ranking is important because it likely to have a major impact on publication
choices and research dissemination in Australia. The ranking is problematic because
it is evident that some disciplines have been treated very differently than others.
This paper reveals weaknesses in the ERA journal ranking and highlights the poor
correlation between ERA rankings and other acknowledged metrics of journal
standing. It highlights the need for a reasonable representation of journals ranked

UNIVERSALITY; VALIDATION; CHEMISTRY; METRICS; IMPACT
AB In December 2003, seventeen years after the first UK research assessment
exercise, Italy started up its first-ever national research evaluation, with the
aim to evaluate, using the peer review method, the excellence of the national
research production. The evaluation involved 20 disciplinary areas, 102 research
structures, 18,500 research products and 6661 peer reviewers (1465 from abroad); it
had a direct cost of 3.55 millions Euros and a time length spanning over 18 months.
The introduction of ratings based on ex post quality of output and not on ex ante
respect for parameters and compliance is an important leap forward of the national
research evaluation system toward meritocracy. From the bibliometric perspective,
the national assessment offered the unprecedented opportunity to perform a large-
scale comparison of peer review and bibliometric indicators for an important share
of the Italian research production. The present investigation takes full advantage
of this opportunity to test whether peer review judgements and (article and
journal) bibliometric indicators are independent variables and, in the negative
case, to measure the sign and strength of the association. Outcomes allow us to
advocate the use of bibliometric evaluation, suitably integrated with expert
review, for the forthcoming national assessment exercises, with the goal of
shifting from the assessment of research excellence to the evaluation of average
research performance without significant increase of expenses. (C) 2010 Elsevier

AB Recitation patterns for individual publications are examined and mathematically
modeled by focusing on the origin of citations (citers) using data from Thomson
Reuters Web of Science. The authors outline oeuvre citation exhaustivity, or the
practice of citing across the body of work of an author, and model the resulting
frequency distributions to identify research disciples and admirers. A Geeta
distribution provided the best fits for both recitation frequency and oeuvre
citation exhaustivity distributions. The findings provide a novel way to identify
the influence of an author based on citer analysis. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All

TI Ranking patent assignee performance by h-index and shape descriptors

DE h-Index; Rank-citation curve; Geometric interpretation; Shape

ID IMPACT; LEVEL
AB We propose a geometric interpretation to the ranking of patent assignees by
their h-indices as indicating the relative positions of their rank-citation curves.
We then propose two shape descriptors characterizing the rank-citation curves over
the h-cores and h-tails, respectively. Together with the h-indices, the shape
descriptors help verifying the geometric relationship among rank-citation curves
and the relative performance among the assignees' h-cores and h-tails. The
geometric interpretation and shape descriptors are proven by empirical data to be
reliable, accurate, robust, flexible, and insightful, and their application could
be extended to research performance evaluation as well. Crown Copyright (C) 2011

AB Recognizing emotion is extremely important for a text-based communication tool
such as a blog. On commercial blogs, the evaluation comments by bloggers of a
product can spread at an explosive rate in cyberspace, and negative comments could
be very harmful to an enterprise. Lately, researchers have been paying much
attention to sentiment classification. The goal is to efficiently identify the
emotions of their customers to allow companies to respond in the appropriate manner
to what customers have to say. Semantic orientation indexes and machine learning
methods are usually employed to achieve this goal. Semantic orientation indexes do
not have good performance, but they return results quickly. Machine learning
techniques provide better classification accuracy, but require a lot of training
time. In order to combine the advantages of these two methods, this study proposed
a neural-network based approach. It uses semantic orientation indexes as inputs for
the neural networks to determine the sentiments of the bloggers quickly and
effectively. Several actual blogs are used to evaluate the effectiveness of our
approach. The experimental results indicate that the proposed approach outperforms
traditional approaches including other neural networks and several semantic
orientation indexes. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper studies how missing data in the PageRank algorithm influences the
result of papers ranking and proposes PrestigeRank algorithm on that basis. We make
use of PrestigeRank to give the ranking of all papers in physics in the Chinese
Scientific and Technology Papers and Citation Database (CSTPCD) published between
2004 and 2006. We compared PrestigeRank result with PageRank and citation ranking.
We found PrestigeRank is significantly correlated with PageRank and citation
counts. We also used paper citation networks to rank journals, and compared the
result with that of journal citation networks. We proposed PR(sum), PR(ave), and
compared both of them with citation counts and impact factor. It indicates PR(sum),
PR(ave) can reflect journal's authority favorably. We also discuss the advantages
and disadvantages, application scope and application prospects of PrestigeRank in
the evaluation of papers and journals. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Evaluating the scientific output of researchers, research institutions, academic
departments and even universities is a challenging issue. To do this, bibliometric
indicators are helpful tools, more and more familiar to research and governmental
institutions.
This paper proposes a structured method to compare academic research groups
within the same discipline, by means of some Hirsch (h) based bibliometric
indicators. Precisely, five different typologies of indicators are used so as to
depict groups' bibliometric positioning within the scientific community. A specific
analysis concerning the Italian researchers in the scientific sector of Production
Technology and Manufacturing Systems is developed. The analysis is supported by
empirical data and can be extended to research groups associated to other
scientific sectors. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI How and where the TeraGrid supercomputing infrastructure benefits

DT Article
ID INDEX
AB We investigate how the benefits of the TeraGrid supercomputing infrastructure
are distributed across the scientific community. Do mostly high-impact scientists
benefit from the TeraGrid? Are some scientific domains more strongly represented
than others in TeraGrid-supported work? To answer these questions, we examine the
relation between TeraGrid usage and scientific impact for a set of scientists whose
projects relied to varying degrees on the TeraGrid infrastructure. For each
scientist we measure TeraGrid usage expressed in terms of allocated Service Units
(SU) vs. various indicators of their scientific impact such as the h-index, total
citations, and citations per article. Our results show a significant correlation
between scientific impact and TeraGrid usage. We furthermore examine the
distribution of TeraGrid-related publications across various scientific journals. A
superposition of these journals over an existing large-scale map of science shows
how TeraGrid-supported work is mostly concentrated in Physics and Chemistry, with a
lesser focus on biology. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE First-Citation-Speed-Index; FCSI; h-Index; Increasing sequence
AB In this paper, we define a First-Citation-Speed-Index (FCSI) for a set of
papers, based on their times of publication and of first citation. The index is
based on the definition of a h-index for increasing sequences.
We show that the index has several good properties in the sense that the shorter
the times are between publication and first citation (in a global manner) the
higher the FCSI is.
We present two case studies: a first-citation speed comparison of three journals
in the field of psychology and a first-citation speed comparison of accepted and
rejected, but published elsewhere manuscripts by the journal Angewandte Chemie
International Edition. Both case studies indicate that our FCSI satisfies the
intuitive feeling of what values a FCSI should have in these cases. (C) 2010

AB Interdisciplinary scientific research (IDR) extends and challenges the study of
science on a number of fronts, including creating output science and engineering
(S&E) indicators. This literature review began with a narrow search for
quantitative measures of the output of IDR that could contribute to indicators, but
the authors expanded the scope of the review as it became clear that differing
definitions, assessment tools, evaluation processes, and measures all shed light on
different aspects of IDR. Key among these broader aspects is (a) the importance of
incorporating the concept of knowledge integration, and (b) recognizing that
integration can occur within a single mind as well as among a team. Existing output
measures alone cannot adequately capture this process. Among the quantitative
measures considered, bibliometrics (co-authorships, co-inventors, collaborations,
references, citations and co-citations) are the most developed, but leave
considerable gaps in understanding of the social dynamics that lead to knowledge
integration. Emerging measures in network dynamics (particularly betweenness
centrality and diversity), and entropy are promising as indicators, but their use
requires sophisticated interpretations. Combinations of quantitative measures and
qualitative assessments being applied within evaluation studies appear to reveal
IDR processes but carry burdens of expense, intrusion, and lack of reproducibility
year-upon-year. This review is a first step toward providing a more holistic view
of measuring IDR, although research and development is needed before metrics can
adequately reflect the actual phenomenon of IDR. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier

AB A publication exerts direct and indirect influence on other articles (by citing
articles and by articles that cite citing articles) and is itself influenced
directly as well as indirectly (by references and references of references). This
citation network leads to generations of citing and cited publications. In this
contribution we show that these generations can be defined in different ways. We
also propose methods to calculate indicators derived from these citation
generations. We claim that, when studying a publication's contribution to the
evolution of its field or to science in general, taking only direct citations into
account, tells only part of the story. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The crown indicator is a well-known bibliometric indicator of research
performance developed by our institute. The indicator aims to normalize citation
counts for differences among fields. We critically examine the theoretical basis of
the normalization mechanism applied in the crown indicator. We also make a
comparison with an alternative normalization mechanism. The alternative mechanism
turns out to have more satisfactory properties than the mechanism applied in the
crown indicator. In particular, the alternative mechanism has a so-called
consistency property. The mechanism applied in the crown indicator lacks this
important property. As a consequence of our findings, we are currently moving
towards a new crown indicator, which relies on the alternative normalization
mechanism. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper introduces a novel methodology for comparing the citation
distributions of research units of a certain size working in the same homogeneous
field. Given a critical citation level (CCL), we suggest using two real valued
indicators to describe the shape of any distribution: a high-impact and a low-
impact measure defined over the set of articles with citations above or below the
CCL. The key to this methodology is the identification of a citation distribution
with an income distribution. Once this step is taken, it is easy to realize that
the measurement of low-impact coincides with the measurement of economic poverty.
In turn, it is equally natural to identify the measurement of high-impact with the
measurement of a certain notion of economic affluence. On the other hand, it is
seen that the ranking of citation distributions according to a family of low-impact
measures is essentially characterized by a number of desirable axioms.
Appropriately redefined, these same axioms lead to the selection of an equally
convenient class of decomposable high-impact measures. These two families are shown
to satisfy other interesting properties that make them potentially useful in
empirical applications, including the comparison of research units working in
different fields. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A citation-based indicator for interdisciplinarity has been missing hitherto
among the set of available journal indicators. In this study, we investigate
network indicators (betweenness centrality), unevenness indicators (Shannon
entropy, the Gini coefficient), and more recently proposed Rao-Stirling measures
for "interdisciplinarity." The latter index combines the statistics of both
citation distributions of journals (vector-based) and distances in citation
networks among journals (matrix-based). The effects of various normalizations are
specified and measured using the matrix of 8207 journals contained in the Journal
Citation Reports of the (Social) Science Citation Index 2008. Betweenness
centrality in symmetrical (1-mode) cosine-normalized networks provides an indicator
outperforming betweenness in the asymmetrical (2-mode) citation network. Among the
vector-based indicators, Shannon entropy performs better than the Gini coefficient,
but is sensitive to size. Science and Nature, for example, are indicated at the top
of the list. The new diversity measure provides reasonable results when (1 -
cosine) is assumed as a measure for the distance, but results using Euclidean
distances were difficult to interpret. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this paper we study the effects of field normalization baseline on relative
performance of 20 natural science departments in terms of citation impact. Impact
is studied under three baselines: journal, ISI/Thomson Reuters subject category,
and Essential Science Indicators field. For the measurement of citation impact, the
indicators item-oriented mean normalized citation rate and Top-5% are employed. The
results, which we analyze with respect to stability, show that the choice of
normalization baseline matters. We observe that normalization against publishing
journal is particular. The rankings of the departments obtained when journal is
used as baseline, irrespective of indicator, differ considerably from the rankings
obtained when ISI/Thomson Reuters subject category or Essential Science Indicators
field is used. Since no substantial differences are observed when the baselines

TI High- and low-impact citation measures: Empirical applications

indicators
ID INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATION; BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS;
COOPERATION; NATIONS; SCORES; SCALES
AB This paper contains the first empirical applications of a novel methodology for
comparing the citation distributions of research units working in the same
homogeneous field. The paper considers a situation in which the world citation
distribution in 22 scientific fields is partitioned into three geographical areas:
the U. S., the European Union (EU), and the rest of the world (RW). Given a
critical citation level (CCL), we suggest using two real valued indicators to
describe the shape of each area's distribution: a high-and a low-impact measure
defined over the set of articles with citations below or above the CCL. It is found
that, when the CCL is fixed at the 80th percentile of the world citation
distribution, the U. S. performs dramatically better than the EU and the RW
according to both indicators in all scientific fields. This superiority generally
increases as we move from the incidence to the intensity and the citation
inequality aspects of the phenomena in question. Surprisingly, changes observed
when the CCL is increased from the 80th to the 95th percentile are of a relatively
small order of magnitude. Finally, it is found that international co-authorship
increases the high-impact and reduces the low-impact level in the three
geographical areas. This is especially the case for the EU and the RW when they
cooperate with the U.S. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper presents an approach to analyze the thematic evolution of a given
research field. This approach combines performance analysis and science mapping for
detecting and visualizing conceptual subdomains (particular themes or general
thematic areas). It allows us to quantify and visualize the thematic evolution of a
given research field. To do this, co-word analysis is used in a longitudinal
framework in order to detect the different themes treated by the research field
across the given time period. The performance analysis uses different bibliometric
measures, including the h-index, with the purpose of measuring the impact of both
the detected themes and thematic areas. The presented approach includes a
visualization method for showing the thematic evolution of the studied field.
Then, as an example, the thematic evolution of the Fuzzy Sets Theory field is
analyzed using the two most important journals in the topic: Fuzzy Sets and Systems
and IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Peer review serves a gatekeeper role, the final arbiter of what is valued in
academia, but is widely criticized in terms of potential biases-particularly in
relation to gender. In this substantive-methodological synergy, we demonstrate
methodological and multilevel statistical approaches to testing a null hypothesis
model in relation to the effect of researcher gender on peer reviews of grant
proposals, based on 10,023 reviews by 6233 external assessors of 2331 proposals
from social science, humanities, and science disciplines. Utilizing multilevel
cross-classified models, we show that support for the null hypothesis model
positing researcher gender has no significant effect on proposal outcomes.
Furthermore, these non-effects of gender generalize over assessor gender (contrary
to a matching hypothesis), discipline, assessors chosen by the researchers
themselves compared to those chosen by the funding agency, and country of the
assessor. Given the large, diverse sample, the powerful statistical analyses, and
support for generalizability, these results - coupled with findings from previous
research - offer strong support for the null hypothesis model of no gender
differences in peer reviews of grant proposals. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Scientific collaboration and endorsement are well-established research topics
which utilize three kinds of methods: survey/questionnaire, bibliometrics, and
complex network analysis. This paper combines topic modeling and path-finding
algorithms to determine whether productive authors tend to collaborate with or cite
researchers with the same or different interests, and whether highly cited authors
tend to collaborate with or cite each other. Taking information retrieval as a test
field, the results show that productive authors tend to directly coauthor with and
closely cite colleagues sharing the same research interests; they do not generally
collaborate directly with colleagues having different research topics, but instead
directly or indirectly cite them; and highly cited authors do not generally
coauthor with each other, but closely cite each other. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB The practice of collaboration, and particularly international collaboration, is
becoming ever more widespread in scientific research, and is likewise receiving
greater interest and stimulus from policy-makers. However, the relation between
research performance and degree of internationalization at the level of single
researchers still presents unresolved questions. The present work, through a
bibliometric analysis of the entire Italian university population working in the
hard sciences over the period 2001-2005, seeks to answer some of these questions.
The results show that the researchers with top performance with respect to their
national colleagues are also those who collaborate more abroad, but that the
reverse is not always true. Also, interesting differences emerge at the sectorial
level. Finally, the effect of the nation involved in the international partnership
plays a role that should not be ignored. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Accurate computation of h indices or other indicators of research impact
requires access to databases supplying complete and accurate citation information.
The Web of Science (WoS) database is widely used for this purpose and it is
generally deemed error-free. This note describes an inaccuracy that seems to affect
differentially non-English sources and targets in WoS, namely, "phantom citations"
(i.e., papers reported by WoS to cite some article when they actually did not) and
their concentration around particular articles that are thus dubbed "strange
attractors". The analysis of references in (and citations to) papers in two English
sources and two non-English sources reveals that phantom citations and other errors
of indexing occur about twice as often with non-English items. These and other
errors of commission affect about 1% of the cited references in the WoS database,
and they may reveal large-scale problems in the reference matching algorithm in
WoS. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

journal quality

DE Journal ranking; Stated preference; Exposure effect; Familiarity effect
ID KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT; ACADEMIC JOURNALS; RANKING
AB The purpose of this study is to test the existence of the exposure effect in
journal ranking decisions. The exposure effect emerges when participants of journal
ranking surveys assign higher scores to some journals merely because they are more
familiar with them rather than on their objective assessment of the overall
journal's contribution to the field. Analysis of the journal ranking data from a
survey of 233 active researchers in the field of knowledge management and
intellectual capital confirmed the existence of the exposure effect. Specifically,
it was found that: (1) those who previously published in a particular journal rated
it higher than those who did not; (2) those who previously served as a reviewer or
editor for a particular journal also rated it higher than those who did not; and
(3) a very strong correlation was found between the respondents' perceptions of
overall contribution of a journal and the degree of their familiarity with this
outlet. This investigation confirmed a major limitation of the stated preference
journal ranking approach that should be taken into consideration in future research
and results interpretation. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study presents a ranking of 182 academic journals in the field of
artificial intelligence. For this, the revealed preference approach, also referred
to as a citation impact method, was utilized to collect data from Google Scholar.
This list was developed based on three relatively novel indices: h-index, g-index,
and hc-index. These indices correlated almost perfectly with one another (ranging
from 0.97 to 0.99), and they correlated strongly with Thomson's Journal Impact
Factors (ranging from 0.64 to 0.69). It was concluded that journal longevity (years
in print) is an important but not the only factor affecting an outlet's ranking
position. Inclusion in Thomson's Journal Citation Reports is a must for a journal
to be identified as a leading A+ or A level outlet. However, coverage by Thomson
does not guarantee a high citation impact of an outlet. The presented list may be
utilized by scholars who want to demonstrate their research output, various
academic committees, librarians and administrators who are not familiar with the AI
research domain. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This study attempts to model the growth behavior of the number of publications
and patents of South Korea, Taiwan, Japan and Malaysia. Three competing growth
functions, namely, simple logistic growth function, bi-logistic growth function and
logistic function within a dynamic carrying capacity were considered. The findings
provide insight to the diffusion process of science and technology, often measured
by the number of publications and patents, respectively. The function that provides
the best fit to the observed data was opted for explaining the diffusion process.
The function with the best fit is the bi-logistic growth function for the number of
publications as well as the number of patents of South Korea and Taiwan, the
logistic growth function within a dynamic carrying capacity (LGDCC) for the number
of publications and the bi-logistic growth function for the number of patents of
Japan, and the LGDCC for the number of publications and simple growth function for
the number of patents of Malaysia. The results suggest a dynamic self-propagating
growth for the science and technology, and thereby a transition from science and
technology-push to market-pull growth for South Korea and Taiwan. While a similar
transition was observed for the technology of Japan, the growth in science had
entered a maturity stage. On the other hand, the growth potential in science is
dynamic for Malaysia, but its technological advancement is relatively lower and
static compared to the other economies. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We study the evolution of Slovenia's scientific collaboration network from 1960
till present with a yearly resolution. For each year the network was constructed
from publication records of Slovene scientists, whereby two were connected if, up
to the given year inclusive, they have coauthored at least one paper together.
Starting with no more than 30 scientists with an average of 1.5 collaborators in
the year 1960, the network to date consists of 7380 individuals that, on average,
have 10.7 collaborators. We show that, in spite of the broad myriad of research
fields covered, the networks form "small worlds" and that indeed the average path
between any pair of scientists scales logarithmically with size after the largest
component becomes large enough. Moreover, we show that the network growth is
governed by near-liner preferential attachment, giving rise to a log-normal
distribution of collaborators per author, and that the average starting year is
roughly inversely proportional to the number of collaborators eventually acquired.
Understandably, not all that became active early have till now gathered many
collaborators. We also give results for the clustering coefficient and the diameter
of the network over time, and compare our conclusions with those reported
previously. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

organizations: A new Webometrics concept

AB Web hyperlink analysis has been a key topic of Webometric research. However,
inlink data collection from commercial search engines has been limited to only one
source in recent years, which is not a promising prospect for the future
development of the field. We need to tap into other Web data sources and to develop
new methods. Toward this end, we propose a new Webometrics concept that is based on
words rather than inlinks on Webpages. We propose that word co-occurrences on
Webpages can be a measure of the relatedness of organizations. Word co-occurrence
data can be collected from both general search engines and blog search engines,
which expands data sources greatly. The proposed concept is tested in a group of
companies in the LTE and WiMax sectors of the telecommunications industry. Data on
the co-occurrences of company names on Webpages were collected from Google and
Google Blog. The co-occurrence matrices were analyzed using MDS. The resulting MDS
maps were compared with industry reality and with the MDS maps from co-link
analysis. Results show that Web co-word analysis could potentially be as useful as
Web co-link analysis. Google Blog seems to be a better source than Google for co-
word data collection. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Can information ethics be conceptualized by using the core/periphery
model?
LA English
DT Article
DE Information ethics; Informetrics; Webometrics; Content analysis;
Core/periphery model; Information science
AB The term 'information ethics' (IE) is rapidly diversifying as new technologies
enter the milieu and add to already existing 'entanglements'. Unsurprisingly, the
term lacks a universally accepted definition, although there is some common ground
as to its constitution. This paper explores the term using the most commonly co-
occurring terms in IE literature as indexed in nine databases, namely the EBSCO-
hosted Academic Search Premier (ASP); Communication and Mass Media Complete; ERIC;
Library, Information Science and Technology Abstracts (LISTA); Newspaper Complete;
Business Premier; and Master File Premier, and Wilson's Library Literature and
Information Science (LLIS) Full Text. Core/periphery analysis, the co-occurrence of
words as subject terms, and social network techniques were applied using UCINET for
Windows, text STAT and Bibexcel computer-aided software to analyze data. The paper
identifies the most common terms used to describe IE and the core terms with which
IE can be defined. Other than informing LIS research and education, the results
could potentially assist with the development of IE taxonomy and definitions (e. g.
in understanding IE content and development) that may apply to the intercultural
and global understanding of IE. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In a recent work by Anderson, Hankin, and Killworth (2008), Ferrers diagrams and
Durfee squares are used to represent the scientific output of a scientist and
construct a new h-based bibliometric indicator, the tapered h-index (h(T)). In the
first part of this paper we examine h(T), identifying its main drawbacks and
weaknesses: an arbitrary scoring system and an illusory increase in discrimination
power compared to h. Subsequently, we propose a new bibliometric tool, the citation
triad (CT), that better exploits the information contained in a Ferrers diagram,
giving a synthetic overview of a scientist's publication output. The advantages of
this new approach are discussed in detail. Argument is supported by several
examples based on empirical data. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The paper presents comparative analyses of two publication point systems, The
Norwegian and the in-house system from the interdisciplinary Danish Institute of
International Studies (DIIS), used as case in the study for publications published
2006, and compares central citation-based indicators with novel publication point
indicators (PPIs) that are formalized and exemplified. Two diachronic citation
windows are applied: 2006-07 and 2006-08. Web of Science (WoS) as well as Google
Scholar (GS) are applied to observe the cite delay and citedness for the different
document types published by DIIS, journal articles, book chapters/conference papers
and monographs. Journal Crown Indicator (JCI) calculations was based on WoS. Three
PPIs are proposed: the Publication Point Ratio (PPR), which measures the sum of
obtained publication points over the sum of the ideal points for the same set of
documents; the Cumulated Publication Point Indicator (CPPI), which graphically
illustrates the cumulated gain of obtained vs. ideal points, both seen as vectors;
and the normalized Cumulated Publication Point Index (nCPPI) that represents the
cumulated gain of publication success as index values, either graphically or as one
overall score for the institution under evaluation.
The case study indicates that for smaller interdisciplinary research
institutions the cite delay is substantial (2-3 years to obtain a citedness of 50%)
when applying WoS for articles. Applying GS implies a shorter delay and much higher
citedness for all document types. Statistical significant correlations were only
found between WoS and GS and the two publication point systems in between,
respectively. The study demonstrates how the nCPPI can be applied to institutions
as evaluation tools supplementary to JCI in various combinations, in particular
when institutions include humanistic and social science disciplines. (C) 2010

AB Let L-0 consider an initial Lorenz curve. In this paper we propose a general
methodology for obtaining new classes of parametric Lorenz or Leimkuhler curves
that contain the original curve as limiting or special case. The new classes
introduce additional parameters in the original family, providing more flexibility
for the new families. The new classes are built from an ordered sequence of power
Lorenz curves, assuming that the powers are distributed according to some
convenient discrete random variable. Using this method we obtain many of the
families proposed in the literature, including the classical proposal of Bradford
(1934), Kakwani and Podder (1973) and others. We obtain some inequality measures
and population functions for the proposed families. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB We study how scholar collaboration varies across disciplines in science, social
science, arts and humanities and the effects of author collaboration on impact and
quality of coauthored papers. Impact is measured with the aid of citations
collected by papers, while quality is determined by the judgements expressed by
peer reviewers. To this end, we take advantage of the dataset provided by the
first-ever national research assessment exercise of Italian universities, which
involved 20 disciplinary areas, 102 research structures, 18,500 research products,
and 6661 peer reviewers. Collaboration intensity neatly varies across disciplines:
it is inescapable is most sciences and negligible in most humanities. We measured a
general positive association between cardinality of the author set of a paper and
citation count as well as peer quality of the contribution. The correlation is
stronger when the affiliations of authors are heterogeneous. There exist, however,
notable and interesting counter-examples. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper studies the correlations between peer review and citation indicators
when evaluating research quality in library and information science (LIS). Forty-
two LIS experts provided judgments on a 5-point scale of the quality of research
published by 101 scholars; the median rankings resulting from these judgments were
then correlated with h-, g- and H-index values computed using three different
sources of citation data: Web of Science (WoS), Scopus and Google Scholar (GS). The
two variants of the basic h-index correlated more strongly with peer judgment than
did the h-index itself; citation data from Scopus was more strongly correlated with
the expert judgments than was data from GS, which in turn was more strongly
correlated than data from WoS; correlations from a carefully cleaned version of GS
data were little different from those obtained using swiftly gathered GS data; the
indices from the citation databases resulted in broadly similar rankings of the LIS
academics; GS disadvantaged researchers in bibliometrics compared to the other two
citation database while WoS disadvantaged researchers in the more technical aspects
of information retrieval; and experts from the UK and other European countries
rated UK academics with higher scores than did experts from the USA. (C) 2010

AB In this article a relational database schema for a bibliometric database is
developed. After the introduction explaining the motivation to use relational
databases in bibliometrics, an overview of the related literature is given. A
review of typical bibliometric questions serves as an informal requirement
analysis. The database schema is developed as an entity-relationship diagram using
the structural information typically found in scientific articles. Several SQL
queries for the tasks presented in the requirement analysis show the usefulness of
the developed database schema. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID RANKING SCIENTIFIC INSTITUTIONS; HIRSCH-TYPE INDEXES; H-INDEX;
BIBLIOMETRIC INDICATORS; RESEARCH OUTPUT; JOURNALS
AB This paper introduces a new impact indicator for the research effort of a
university, (n)h(3). The number of documents or the number of citations obtained by
an institution are used frequently in international ranking of institutions.
However, these are very dependent on the size and this is inducing mergers with the
apparent sole goal of improving the research ranking. The alternative is to use the
ratio of the two measures, the mean citation rate, that is size independent but it
has been shown to fluctuate along the time as a consequence of its dependence on a
very small number of documents with an extremely good citation performance. In the
last few years, the popularity of the Hirsch index as an indicator of the research
performance of individual researchers led to its application to journals and
institutions. However, the original aim of this h index of giving a mixed measure
of the number of documents published and their impact as measured by the citations
collected along the time is totally undesirable for institutions as the overall
size may be considered irrelevant for the impact evaluation of research.
Furthermore, the h index when applied to institutions tends to retain a very small
number of documents making all other research production irrelevant for this
indicator. The (n)h(3) index proposed here is designed to measure solely the impact
of research in a way that is independent of the size of the institution and is made
relatively stable by making a 20-year estimate of the citations of the documents
produced in a single year. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Recent studies have concluded that American contributions to science literature
have been in relative decline, whereas contributions from other parts of the world
such as the European Union and Asia have increased. Is the same true for the areas
of bibliometrics, informetrics and scientometrics? This study investigates the
growth and geographic distribution of metrics research for the period 1987-2008.
Similar to studies of other disciplines or science in general, the findings reveal
that the United States continues to dominate, but there has been a recent relative
decline in North American contributions overall. European and Asian contributions
have grown substantially. National and institutional collaborations that contribute
to this growth do not necessarily follow close geographic proximity, although
European nations have been more active with international collaborations overall,
both within Europe and elsewhere. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The paper reviews the literature on disciplinary credit assignment practices,
and presents the results of a longitudinal study of credit assignment practices in
the fields of economics, high energy physics, and information science. The practice
of alphabetization of authorship is demonstrated to vary significantly between the
fields. A slight increase is found to have taken place in economics during the last
30 years (1978-2007). A substantial decrease is found to have taken place in
information science during the same period. High energy physics is found to be
characterised by a high and stable share of alphabetized multi-authorships during
the investigated period (1990-2007). It is important to be aware of such
disciplinary differences when conducting bibliometric analyses. (C) 2010 Elsevier

TI The Chinese innovation system during economic transition: A
scale-independent view
LA English
DT Article
DE Scale-independent indicators; Chinese national and regional innovation
systems; Economic transition
ID REGIONS
AB This paper uses scale-independent indicators to explore the Chinese national and
regional innovation systems during economic transition. Our perception of an
innovation system is frequently informed by conventional indicators based on linear
assumptions while actually innovation systems may behave differently. Scale-
independent indicators characterize non-linear properties of an innovation system.
They can give decision makers deeper insight into the dynamics of innovation
systems, and they may lead to more practical public policies [Katz, J. S. (2006).
Indicators for complex innovation systems. Research Policy, 35, 893-909].
As reported for the European and Canadian innovation systems the Chinese systems
exhibited scaling correlations between GERD (Gross Expenditure on Domestic R&D) and
GDP (Gross Domestic Product) over time and at points in time. The scaling factors
of the correlations tell us that between 1995 and 2005 the Chinese GERD exhibited a
strong nonlinear tendency to increase with GDP. Furthermore they show that the GERD
of the Western region is growing much slower than its GDP as compared with Eastern
and Central regions. This observation has policy implications suggesting further
improvements need to be made to the research infrastructure and funding of the
Western region.
The GDP-POP (Population) scaling factor shows that the 'wealth intensity' or GDP
per capita is increasing much faster than the exponential growth of the Chinese
population. In contrast the systemic GDP-POP scaling factor shows that regional
development is non-linear. Finally, the paper-GDP and patent-GDP scaling factors
tell us that outputs of science and technology for China are growing faster than
economic growth. The systemic paper-GDP and patent-GDP scaling factors show that
the growth rates are uneven across the provinces. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB In the analysis of bibliometric networks, researchers often use mapping and
clustering techniques in a combined fashion. Typically, however, mapping and
clustering techniques that are used together rely on very different ideas and
assumptions. We propose a unified approach to mapping and clustering of
bibliometric networks. We show that the VOS mapping technique and a weighted and
parameterized variant of modularity-based clustering can both be derived from the
same underlying principle. We illustrate our proposed approach by producing a
combined mapping and clustering of the most frequently cited publications that
appeared in the field of information science in the period 1999-2008. (C) 2010

AB Combining different data sets with information on grant and fellowship
applications submitted to two renowned funding agencies, we are able to compare
their funding decisions (award and rejection) with scientometric performance
indicators across two fields of science (life sciences and social sciences). The
data sets involve 671 applications in social sciences and 668 applications in life
sciences. In both fields, awarded applicants perform on average better than all
rejected applicants. If only the most preeminent rejected applicants are considered
in both fields, they score better than the awardees on citation impact. With regard
to productivity we find differences between the fields. While the awardees in life
sciences outperform on average the most preeminent rejected applicants, the
situation is reversed in social sciences. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Research was undertaken that examined what, if any, correlation there was
between the h-index and rankings by peer assessment, and what correlation there was
between the 2008 UK RAE rankings and the collective h-index of submitting
departments. About 100 international scholars in Library and Information Science
were ranked by their peers on the quality of their work. These rankings were
correlated with the h and g scores the scholars had achieved. The results showed
that there was a correlation between their median rankings and the indexes. The
2008 RAE grade point averages (GPA) achieved by departments from three UoAs -
Anthropology, Library and Information Management and Pharmacy were compared with
each of their collective h and g index scores. Results were mixed, with a strong
correlation between pharmacy departments and index scores, followed by library and
information management to anthropology where negative and non-significant results
were found. Taken together, the findings from the research indicate that individual
ranking by peer assessment and their h-index or variants was generally good.
Results for the RAE 2008 gave correlations between GPA and successive versions of
the h-index which varied in strength, except for anthropology where, it is
suggested detailed cited reference searches must be undertaken to maximise citation
counts. (C) 2009 Charles Oppenheim. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Effect of cooperation between Chinese scientific journals and
international publishers on journals' impact factor
LA English
DT Article
DE Chinese scientific journals; International publishers; Impact factor
ID LANGUAGE ACADEMIC JOURNALS
AB Growing cooperation between Chinese journals and international publishers
invites an investigation of the effect of this cooperation, based on an analysis of
journal IF changes. Data from 23 Chinese academic journals were chosen from about
50 English-language academic journals indexed by SCI or SCIE and with a long
history of cooperation. The data do not suggest that cooperation has improved the
journals' IF thus far. It appears that cooperation is generally limited to
international distribution, and this has a weak influence on the quality of the
journal and its IF, even though the papers can be accessed by worldwide users
through publishers' international distribution networks. Cooperation with
international publishers is one step, but actively working on the quality of the
journals is a more important step. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We performed a thorough comparison of four main indicators of journal influence,
namely 2-year impact factor, 5-year impact factor, eigenfactor and article
influence. These indicators have been recently added by Thomson Reuters to the
Journal Citation Reports, in both science and social science editions, and are thus
available for study and comparison over a sample of significative size. We find
that the distribution associated with the eigenfactor largely differs from the
distribution of the other surveyed measures in terms of deviation from the mean,
concentration, entropy, and skewness. Moreover, it is the one that best fits to the
lognormal theoretical model. Surprisingly, the eigenfactor is also the most
variable indicator when computed across different fields of science and social
science, while article influence is the most stable in this respect, and hence the
most suitable metric to be used interdisciplinarily. Finally, the journal rankings
provided by impact factors and article influence are relatively similar and diverge
from the one produced by eigenfactor, which is closer to that given by the total
number of received citations. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Growth of literature; Multiple linear regression model; Malaria research
ID SCIENCE
AB In the present study we have tried to trace the growth of malaria research at
Global Level and the distribution of articles in various journals for the period
1955-2005. The data have been extracted from a database, which has been developed
in-house from MEDLINE, SCI, TDB, Ovid Heath Information and Indian Science
Abstracts. Study indicates that the exponential model fits the data on journals,
articles and authors. The R(2) value for the trend for journals, articles, and
authors are 0.9502, 0.9475, and 0.9651, respectively. The growth rates for
journals, articles and authors are 5.31%, 7.38%, and 10.06%, respectively. The
linear multiple regression equation that Articles =-39.2771 + 3.61719*journals +
0.085882*Authors (R(2) = 99.16%) is most meaningful and it may be used to estimate
the articles for given numbers of journals and authors. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Scientific papers are usually assessed by a number of direct citations. The
number of citations received by direct citations (2nd generation citations) has
been considered as an alternative criterion of evaluation. Such an approach
overrates the papers, which received citation(s) in one or in a few very highly
cited papers. Hirsch-type approach to the 2nd generation citations suggested by
Schubert was used to combine the impact and quantity of 1st generation citations
into one number. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Measuring contextual citation impact of scientific journals
LA English
DT Article
DE Journal metrics; Journal impact factor; Reference practices; Database
coverage; Scopus; Source normalization
ID TOOL; SYSTEM; OUTPUT
AB This paper explores a new indicator of journal citation impact, denoted as
source normalized impact per paper (SNIP). It measures a journal's contextual
citation impact, taking into account characteristics of its properly defined
subject field, especially the frequency at which authors cite other papers in their
reference lists, the rapidity of maturing of citation impact, and the extent to
which a database used for the assessment covers the field's literature. It further
develops Eugene Garfield's notions of a field's 'citation potential' defined as the
average length of references lists in a field and determining the probability of
being cited, and the need in fair performance assessments to correct for
differences between subject fields. A journal's subject field is defined as the set
of papers citing that journal. SNIP is defined as the ratio of the journal's
citation count per paper and the citation potential in its subject field. It aims
to allow direct comparison of sources in different subject fields. Citation
potential is shown to vary not only between journal subject categories - groupings
of journals sharing a research field - or disciplines (e. g., journals in
mathematics, engineering and social sciences tend to have lower values than titles
in life sciences), but also between journals within the same subject category. For
instance, basic journals tend to show higher citation potentials than applied or
clinical journals, and journals covering emerging topics higher than periodicals in
classical subjects or more general journals. SNIP corrects for such differences.
Its strengths and limitations are critically discussed, and suggestions are made
for further research. All empirical results are derived from Elsevier's Scopus. (C)

AB We investigate the community structure of physics subfields in the citation
network of all Physical Review publications between 1893 and August 2007. We focus
on well-cited publications (those receiving more than 100 citations), and apply
modularity maximization to uncover major communities that correspond to clearly
identifiable subfields of physics. While most of the links between communities
connect those with obvious intellectual overlap, there sometimes exist unexpected
connections between disparate fields due to the development of a widely applicable
theoretical technique or by cross fertilization between theory and experiment. We
also examine communities decade by decade and also uncover a small number of
significant links between communities that are widely separated in time. (C) 2010

AB The creation of some kind of representations depicting the current state of
Science (or scientograms) is an established and beaten track for many years now.
However, if we are concerned with the automatic comparison, analysis and
understanding of a set of scientograms, showing for instance the evolution of a
scientific domain or a face-to-face comparison of several countries, the task is
titanically complex as the amount of data to analyze becomes huge and complex. In
this paper, we aim to show that graph-based data mining tools are useful to deal
with scientogram analysis. Subdue, the first algorithm proposed in the graph mining
area, has been chosen for this purpose. This algorithm has been customized to deal
with three different scientogram analysis tasks regarding the evolution of a
scientific domain over time, the extraction of the common research categories
substructures in the world, and the comparison of scientific domains between
different countries. The outcomes obtained in the developed experiments have
clearly demonstrated the potential of graph mining tools in scientogram analysis.

ID R-INDEX
AB The well-known discrete theory of conjugate partitions, Ferrers graphs and
Durfee squares is interpreted in informetrics. It is shown that partitions and
their conjugates have the same h-index, a fact that is not true for the g- and R-
index. A modification of Ferrers graph is presented, yielding the g-index.
We then present a formula for the Lorenz curve of the conjugate partition in
function of the Lorenz curve of the original partition in the discrete setting.
Ferrers graphs, Durfee squares and conjugate partitions are then defined in the
continuous setting where variables range over intervals. Conjugate partitions are
nothing else than the inverses of rank-frequency functions in informetrics. Also
here they have the same h-index and we can again give a formula for the Lorenz
curve of the conjugate partition in function of the Lorenz curve of the original
partition. Calculatory examples are given where these Lorenz curves are equal and
where one Lorenz curve dominates the other one. We also prove that the Lorenz curve
of a partition and the one of its conjugate can intersect on the open interval ]0,

ID LOG ANALYSIS; SEARCH; IDENTIFICATION
AB The aim of this paper is to characterize the distribution of number of hits and
spent time by web session. It also expects to find if there are significant
differences between the length and the duration of a session with regard to the
point of access-search engine, link or root. Web usage mining was used to analyse
17,174 web sessions that were identified from the webometrics.info web site.
Results show that both distribution of length and duration follow an exponential
decay. Significant differences between the different origins of the visits were
also found, being the search engines' users those who spent most time and did more
clicks in their sessions. We conclude that a good SEO policy would be justified,
because search engines are the principal intermediaries to this web site. (C) 2010

AB Scientists from universities are becoming more proactive in their efforts to
commercialize research results. Patenting, as an important channel of university
knowledge transfer, has initiated a controversy on potential effects for the future
of scientific research. This paper contributes to the growing study on the
relationship between patenting and publishing among faculty members with China's
evidence in the field of nanotechnology. Data from top 32 most prolific
universities in patenting are used to examine the relationship, consisting of 6321
confirmed academic inventors who both publish and patent over the time period 1991-
2008. By controlling for heterogeneity of patenting activities, patenting
experience, institutional affiliation and collaboration with foreign researchers,
the findings in China's nanotechnology generally support earlier investigations
concluding that patenting activity does not adversely affect research output.
Patenting, however, has negative impacts on both quantity and quality of university
researchers' publication output, when the assignee lists include corporations or
scientists themselves. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The country-wise distribution of papers, which cite certain scientist is a sum
of typical distribution for his/her branch of science and excessive citations from
one or from a few countries. A new Hirsch-type index h_int is defined as the number
of countries, h_int, from which at least h_int papers cite certain scientist, but
from the country ranked h_int+1 in citing the scientist, less than h_int+1 papers
cite that scientist. The h_int index reflects broad international recognition of a

example

ID SELF-CITATION CORRECTIONS; H-INDEX; COMPLEX NETWORKS; GROWING NETWORKS;
POWER; PUBLICATION; ADVANTAGE
AB Slovenia's Current Research Information System (SICRIS) currently hosts 86,443
publications with citation data from 8359 researchers working on the whole plethora
of social and natural sciences from 1970 till present. Using these data, we show
that the citation distributions derived from individual publications have Zipfian
properties in that they can be fitted by a power law P(x)similar to x(-alpha), with
alpha between 2.4 and 3.1 depending on the institution and field of research.
Distributions of indexes that quantify the success of researchers rather than
individual publications, on the other hand, cannot be associated with a power law.
We find that for Egghe's g-index and Hirsch's h-index the log-normal form
P(x)similar to exp[-alnx - b(ln x)(2)] applies best, with a and b depending
moderately on the underlying set of researchers. In special cases, particularly for
institutions with a strongly hierarchical constitution and research fields with
high self-citation rates, exponential distributions can be observed as well. Both
indexes yield distributions with equivalent statistical properties, which is a
strong indicator for their consistency and logical connectedness. At the same time,
differences in the assessment of citation histories of individual researchers
strengthen their importance for properly evaluating the quality and impact of
scientific output. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

centrality; Citation networks
ID IMPACT FACTOR
AB A size-independent indicator of journals' scientific prestige, the SCImago
Journal Rank (SJR) indicator, is proposed that ranks scholarly journals based on
citation weighting schemes and eigenvector centrality. It is designed for use with
complex and heterogeneous citation networks such as Scopus. Its computation method
is described, and the results of its implementation on the Scopus 2007 dataset is
compared with those of an ad hoc Journal Impact Factor, JIF(3y), both generally and
within specific scientific areas. Both the SJR indicator and the JIF distributions
were found to fit well to a logarithmic law. While the two metrics were strongly
correlated, there were also major changes in rank. In addition, two general
characteristics were observed. On the one hand, journals' scientific influence or
prestige as computed by the SJR indicator tended to be concentrated in fewer
journals than the quantity of citation measured by JIF(3y). And on the other, the
distance between the top-ranked journals and the rest tended to be greater in the
SJR ranking than in that of the JIF(3y), while the separation between the middle
and lower ranked journals tended to be smaller. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

Audience Factor

AB The principle of a new type of impact measure was introduced recently, called
the "Audience Factor" (AF). It is a variant of the journal impact factor where
emitted citations are weighted inversely to the propensity to cite of the source.
In the initial design, propensity was calculated using the average length of
bibliography at the source level with two options: a journal-level average or a
field-level average. This citing-side normalization controls for propensity to
cite, the main determinant of impact factor variability across fields. The AF
maintains the variability due to exports-imports of citations across field and to
growth differences. It does not account for influence chains, powerful approaches
taken in the wake of Pinski-Narin's influence weights. Here we introduce a robust
variant of the audience factor, trying to combine the respective advantages of the
two options for calculating bibliography lengths: the classification-free scheme
when the bibliography length is calculated at the individual journal level, and the
robustness and avoidance of ad hoc settings when the bibliography length is
averaged at the field level. The variant proposed relies on the relative
neighborhood of a citing journal, regarded as its micro-field and assumed to
reflect the citation behavior in this area of science. The methodology adopted
allows a large range of variation of the neighborhood, reflecting the local
citation network, and partly alleviates the "cross-scale" normalization issue.
Citing-side normalization is a general principle which may be extended to other
citation counts. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The h index is a widely used indicator to quantify an individual's scientific
research output. But it has been criticized for its insufficient accuracy-the
ability to discriminate reliably between meaningful amounts of research output. As
a single measure it cannot capture the complete information on the citation
distribution over a scientist's publication list. An extensive data set with
bibliometric data on scientists working in the field of molecular biology is taken
as an example to introduce two approaches providing additional information to the h
index: (1) h(2) lower, h(2) center, and h(2) upper are proposed, which allow
quantification of three areas within a scientist's citation distribution: the low
impact area (h(2) lower), the area captured by the h index (h(2) center), and the
area of publications with the highest visibility (h(2) upper). (2) Given the
existence of different areas in the citation distribution, the segmented regression
model (sRM) is proposed as a method to statistically estimate the number of papers
in a scientist's publication list with the highest visibility. However, such sRM
values should be compared across individuals with great care. (C) 2010 Elsevier

AB In this study direct citations are weighted with shared references and co-
citations in an attempt to decompose a citation network of articles on the subject
of library and information science. The resulting maps have much in common with
author co-citation maps that have been previously presented. However, using direct
citations yields somewhat more detail in terms of detecting sub-domains. Reducing
the network down to the strongest links of each article yielded the best results in
terms of a high number of clusters, each with a substantial number of articles
similar in content. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

evaluations of research performance
LA English

ID CITATION DISTRIBUTIONS; IMPACT FACTORS; INDICATORS; SCIENCE;
UNIVERSALITY; CHEMISTRY; INDEX
AB The Center for Science and Technology Studies at Leiden University advocates the
use of specific normalizations for assessing research performance with reference to
a world average. The Journal Citation Score (JCS) and Field Citation Score (FCS)
are averaged for the research group or individual researcher under study, and then
these values are used as denominators of the (mean) Citations per publication
(CPP). Thus, this normalization is based on dividing two averages. This procedure
only generates a legitimate indicator in the case of underlying normal
distributions. Given the skewed distributions under study, one should average the
observed versus expected values which are to be divided first for each publication.
We show the effects of the Leiden normalization for a recent evaluation where we
happened to have access to the underlying data. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The scientific impact of a publication can be determined not only based on the
number of times it is cited but also based on the citation speed with which its
content is noted by the scientific community. Here we present the citation speed
index as a meaningful complement to the h index: whereas for the calculation of the
h index the impact of publications is based on number of citations, for the
calculation of the speed index it is the number of months that have elapsed since
the first citation, the citation speed with which the results of publications find
reception in the scientific community. The speed index is defined as follows: a
group of papers has the index s if for s of its N-p papers the first citation was
at least s months ago, and for the other (N-p - s) papers the first citation was <=
s months ago. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this paper we compute journal rankings in the Information and Library Science
JCR category according to the JIF and according to several h-type indices. Even
though the correlations between all the ranked lists are very high, there are
considerable individual differences between the rankings as can be seen by visual
inspection, showing that the correlation measure is not sensitive enough. Thus we
also compute other measures, Spearman's footrule and the M-measure that are more
sensitive to the differences between the rankings in the sense that the range of
values is larger than the range of correlation values when comparing the JIF
ranking to the rankings induced by the h-type indices. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB The public sharing of primary research datasets potentially benefits the
research community but is not yet common practice. In this pilot study, we analyzed
whether data sharing frequency was associated with funder and publisher
requirements, journal impact factor, or investigator experience and impact. Across
397 recent biomedical microarray studies, we found investigators were more likely
to publicly share their raw dataset when their study was published in a high-impact
journal and when the first or last authors had high levels of career experience and
impact. We estimate the USA's National Institutes of Health (NIH) data sharing
policy applied to 19% of the studies in our cohort; being subject to the NIH data
sharing plan requirement was not found to correlate with increased data sharing
behavior in multivariate logistic regression analysis. Studies published in
journals that required a database submission accession number as a condition of
publication were more likely to share their data, but this trend was not
statistically significant. These early results will inform our ongoing larger
analysis, and hopefully contribute to the development of more effective data
sharing initiatives. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper reports two interrelated citation-based studies of the intellectual
structure of Evolutionary Developmental Biology (Evo-Devo). The core journals of
Evo-Devo (Evolution & Development, Development, Genes & Evolution, and Journal of
Experimental Zoology, pt. B) and its supporting/parental disciplines are identified
and their strong citation links mapped based on data from Journal Citation Reports,
2005-2007. Evo-Devo cites into Developmental Biology in all three years and
exchanges citations with Paleontology in 2007. There are no strong connections with
either general or molecular Evolution journals. Persistent, visible research themes
are visualized as citing-cited networks and subnetworks of articles extracted from
the Web of Science for the core Evo-Devo journals and a larger set of articles
citing one or more Evo-Devo journals. Most research themes in the core set are
specific to a single journal. Few highly cited core journal articles are also
visible in the broader set of networks and subnetworks, although some themes (e.
g., arthropod body plans, chordate genes/gene expression) are visible in both data
sets. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Diffusion of latent semantic analysis as a research tool: A social
network analysis approach

AB Latent semantic analysis (LSA) is a relatively new research tool with a wide
range of applications in different fields ranging from discourse analysis to
cognitive science, from information retrieval to machine learning and so on. In
this paper, we chart the development and diffusion of LSA as a research tool using
social network analysis (SNA) approach that reveals the social structure of a
discipline in terms of collaboration among scientists. Using Thomson Reuters' Web
of Science (WoS), we identified 65 papers with "latent semantic analysis" in their
titles and 250 papers in their topics (but not in titles) between 1990 and 2008. We
then analyzed those papers using bibliometric and SNA techniques such as co-
authorship and cluster analysis. It appears that as the emphasis moves from the
research tool (LSA) itself to its applications in different fields, citations to
papers with LSA in their titles tend to decrease. The productivity of authors fits
Lotka's Law while the network of authors is quite loose. Networks of journals cited
in papers with LSA in their titles and topics are well connected. (C) 2009 Elsevier

ORTEGA HYPOTHESIS; IMPACT
AB Hirsch-type indices are not only used for the evaluation of individual
scientists but also for institutional evaluation. In particular, Prathap's
suggestion, using the pair of h-indices (h(1)-h(2)) seems a promising approach.
This paper discusses these h-indices, incorporating moreover a Molinari correction
for size. We provide a theoretical framework and provide practical examples in the
field of HIV infection and therapy. It is shown that the National Cancer Institute
(NCI, USA) and Harvard University are the leading institutes in this field (in the
world). If, however, size is controlled according to the Molinari approach, the
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID, USA) becomes the
leader. In addition, we provide a new structural index: the ratio h(2)/h(1). It is
suggested that this ratio indicator is related to the stability of the research
performed at an institute or university. The term stability is used here in the
sense of not depending on a small group of scientists that could easily move to
another university or institute. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The study focuses on the analysis of the information flow among the ISI subject
categories and aims at finding an appropriate field structure of the Web of Science
using the subject clustering algorithm developed in previous studies. The
clustering journals and ISI subject categories provide two subject classification
schemes through different perspectives and levels. The two clustering results have
been compared and their accordance and divergence have been analyzed. Several
indicators have been used to compare the communication characteristics among
different ISI subject categories. The neighbour map of each category clearly
reflects the affinities between the "core" category and its satellites around. (C)

research field. Due to a number of limitations, the commercial citation indexes
have long made it difficult to obtain a comprehensive dataset in this step. This
paper discusses some of the limitations imposed by these databases, and reports on
a method to overcome some of these limitations that was used with great success to
delimit an emerging and highly interdisciplinary biomedical research field, stem
cell research. The resulting field delimitation and the citation network it induces
are both excellent. This multi-database method relies on using PubMed for the
actual field delimitation, and on mapping between Scopus and PubMed records for
obtaining comprehensive information about cited-references contained in the
resulting literature. This method provides high-quality field delimitations for
citation studies that can be used as benchmarks for studies of the impact of data
collection biases on citation metrics, and may help improve confidence in results
of scientometric studies for an increased impact of scientometrics on research
policy. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

TI Measuring a journal's input rhythm based on its publication-reference
matrix
LA English

DE Rhythm sequences; Publication-reference matrices; Relative reference

ID RELATIVE INDICATORS; SCIENCE; SEQUENCES; FIELDS
AB The difference among journal reference characteristics in various fields causes
a field-based difference in their citation counts. For the purpose of improving
indicators used in cross-field evaluations it is necessary to continue explorations
corresponding to the characteristics of journal references. Such an exploration
would offer new clues for solving the problem of cross-field journal evaluation.
During the past years studies of the rhythm of science have obtained some
achievements: constructing various types of publication-citation matrices (in
short: p-c matrices), creating a series of rhythm indicators, studying the
fundamental mathematical properties of rhythm sequences and exploring some
journals' rhythm sequences. Rhythm indicators can be applied to many studies, if
the system is a source-item system with two time dimensions, ensuring the
construction of a p-c-like matrix, then such a study is theoretically feasible. In
this article we create a journal's publication-reference matrix (p-r matrix). Based
on the p-r matrix the rR' indicator is defined, which is used to measure the so-
called input rhythm of a journal. As two case studies, the input rhythms of the
Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology and of the
Journal of Documentation are presented and analyzed. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB The citation counts are increasingly used to assess the impact on the scientific
community of publications produced by a researcher, an institution or a country.
There are many institutions that use bibliometric indicators to steer research
policy and for hiring or promotion decisions. Given the importance that counting
citations has today, the aim of the work presented here is to show how citations
are distributed within a scientific area and determine the dependence of the
citation count on the article features. All articles referenced in the Web of
Science in 2004 for Biology & Biochemistry, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics were
considered.
We show that the distribution of citations is well represented by a double
exponential-Poisson law. There is a dependence of the mean citation rate on the
number of co-authors, the number of addresses and the number of references,
although this dependence is a little far from the linear behaviour. For the
relation between the mean impact and the number of pages the dependence obtained
was very low. For Biology & Biochemistry and Chemistry we found a linear behaviour
between the mean citation per article and impact factor and for Mathematics and
Physics the results obtained are near to the linear behaviour. (C) 2009 Elsevier

h((2))-index; g((2))-index
AB Based on the rank-order citation distribution of e. g. a researcher, one can
define certain points on this distribution, hereby summarizing the citation
performance of this researcher. Previous work of Glanzel and Schubert defined these
so-called "characteristic scores and scales" (CSS), based on average citation data
of samples of this ranked publication-citation list.
In this paper we will define another version of CSS, based on diverse h-type
indices such as the h-index, the g-index, the Kosmulski's h((2))-index and the g-
variant of it, the g((2))-index.
Mathematical properties of these new CSS are proved in a Lotkaian framework.
These CSS also provide an improvement of the single h-type indices in the sense
that they give h-type index values for different parts of the ranked publication-
citation list. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Bibliometric studies at the micro level are increasingly requested by science
managers and policy makers to support research decisions. Different measures and
indices have been developed at this level of analysis. One type of indices, such as
the h-index and g-index, describe the most productive core of the output of a
researcher and inform about the number of papers in the core. Other indices, such
as the a-index and m-index, depict the impact of the papers in the core. In this
paper, we present a new index which relates two different dimensions in a
researcher's productive core: a quantitative one (number of papers) and a
qualitative one (impact of papers). In such a way, we could obtain a more balanced
and global view of the scientific production of researchers. This new index, called
q(2)-index, is based on the geometric mean of h-index and the median number of
citations received by papers in the h-core, i.e., the m-index, which allows us to
combine the advantages of both kind of indices. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Many, if not most network analysis algorithms have been designed specifically
for single-relational networks; that is, networks in which all edges are of the
same type. For example, edges may either represent "friendship," "kinship," or "
collaboration," but not all of them together. In contrast, a multi-relational
network is a network with a heterogeneous set of edge labels which can represent
relationships of various types in a single data structure. While multi-relational
networks are more expressive in terms of the variety of relationships they can
capture, there is a need for a general framework for transferring the many single-
relational network analysis algorithms to the multi-relational domain. It is not
sufficient to execute a single-relational network analysis algorithm on a multi-
relational network by simply ignoring edge labels. This article presents an algebra
for mapping multi-relational networks to single-relational networks, thereby
exposing them to single-relational network analysis algorithms. Published by

multiple coauthorship appropriately into account. By fractionalised counting of the
papers one can obtain an appropriate measure which I call g(m)-index. Two
fictitious examples for model cases and two empirical cases are analysed. The
results are compared with two other variants of the g-index which have also
recently been proposed. Only the g(m)-index shows the correct behaviour when
datasets are aggregated. The interpolated and continuous versions of the g-index
and its variants are also discussed. For an intuitive comparison of the
determination of the investigated variants of the h-index and the g-index, a

AB The status of a journal is commonly determined by two factors: popularity and
prestige. While the former counts citations, the latter recursively weights them
with the prestige of the citing journals. We make a thorough comparison of the
bibliometric concepts of popularity and prestige for journals in the sciences and
in the social sciences. We find that the two notions diverge more for the hard
sciences, including physics, engineering, material sciences, and computer sciences,
than they do for the geosciences, for biology-medical disciplines, and for the
social sciences. Moreover, we identify the science and social science journals with
the highest diverging ranks in popularity and prestige compilations. (C) 2009

AB This paper introduces the Hirsch spectrum (h-spectrum) for analyzing the
academic reputation of a scientific journal. h-Spectrum is a novel tool based on
the Hirsch (h) index. It is easy to construct: considering a specific journal in a
specific interval of time, h-spectrum is defined as the distribution representing
the h-indexes associated to the authors of the journal articles. This tool allows
defining a reference profile of the typical author of a journal, compare different
journals within the same scientific field, and provide a rough indication of
prestige/reputation of a journal in the scientific community. h-Spectrum can be
associated to every journal. Ten specific journals in the Quality
Engineering/Quality Management field are analyzed so as to preliminarily
investigate the h-spectrum characteristics. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

DE Knowledge diffusion; Epidemic model; Science map
ID SCIENCE; NETWORKS; DYNAMICS; SPREAD; TRANSMISSION; EMERGENCE; MAP
AB This paper introduces a new approach to describe the spread of research topics
across disciplines using epidemic models. The approach is based on applying
individual-based models from mathematical epidemiology to the diffusion of a
research topic over a contact network that represents knowledge flows over the map
of science-as obtained from citations between ISI Subject Categories. Using
research publications on the protein class kinesin as a case study, we report a
better fit between model and empirical data when using the citation-based contact
network. Incubation periods on the order of 4-15.5 years support the view that,
whilst research topics may grow very quickly, they face difficulties to overcome
disciplinary boundaries. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The scientific quality of a publication can be determined not only based on the
number of times it is cited but also based on the speed with which its content is
disseminated in the scientific community. In this study we tested whether
manuscripts that were accepted by Angewandte Chemie International Edition (one of
the prime chemistry journals worldwide) received the first citation after
publication faster than manuscripts that were rejected by the journal but published
elsewhere. The results of a Cox regression model show that accepted manuscripts
have a 49% higher hazard rate of citation than rejected manuscripts. (C) 2009

TI Analysis of cooperative research and development networks on Japanese
patents
LA English
DT Article
DE Network; Patent; Joint application
AB To sustain economic growth, countries have to manage systems in order to create
technological innovation. To meet this goal, they are developing policies that
organically connect companies, national laboratories, and universities into
innovation networks. However, the whole structures of these connections have been
little investigated because of the difficulty of obtaining such data.
We use Japanese patent data and create a network of jointly applying
organizations. This network can be considered as one representation of an
innovation network because patents are seeds of innovation and joint applications
are strong evidence of connections between organizations. We investigated the
structure of the network, especially whether or not the degree distribution follows
a power law. After that, we also propose a model that generates the actual network,
not only degree distribution, but also link distance distribution. (C) 2009

AB This paper investigates the impact of small world properties and the size of
largest component on innovation performance at national level. Our study adds new
evidence to the limited literature on this topic with an empirical investigation
for the patent collaboration networks of 16 main innovative countries during 1975-
2006. We combine small world network theory with statistical models to
systematically explore the relationship between network structure and patent
productivity. Results fail to support that the size of largest component enhances
innovative productivity significantly, which is not consistent with recent concerns
regarding positive effects of largest component on patent output. We do find that
small-world structure benefits innovation but it is limited to a special range
after which the effects inversed and shorter path length always correlates with
increased innovation output. Our findings extend the current literature and they
can be implicated for policy makers and relevant managers when making decisions for
technology, industry and firm location. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

index, the hg-index which is the geometric mean of hg. The applicability of this
index is tested on data retrieved from Google Scholar on marketing journal articles
published between 2003 and 2007. The authors investigate the relationship between
the hg-ranking, ranking implied by Thomson Reuters' Journal Impact Factor for 2008,
and rankings in previous citation-based studies of marketing journals. They also
test two models of consumption of marketing journals that take into account
measures of citing (based on the hg-index), prestige, and reading preference. (C)

AB In this paper a generalisation of the h-index and g-index is given on the basis
of nonnegative real-valued functionals defined on subspaces of the vector space
generated by the ordered samples. Several Hirsch-type measures are defined and
their basic properties are analysed. Empirical properties are illustrated using
examples from the micro- and meso-level. Among these measures, the h-index proved
the most, the arithmetic and geometric g-indices, the least robust measures. The
mu-index and the harmonic g-index provide more balanced results and are still
robust enough. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

data including Google Scholar, Google Books, Google Blogs, PowerPoint presentations
and course reading lists. The mean and median IOI was nearly twice as high as both
WoS and Scopus, confirming that online citations are sufficiently numerous to be
useful for the impact assessment of research. Wealso found significant correlations
between conventional and online impact indicators, confirming that both assess
something similar in scholarly communication. Further analysis showed that the
overall percentage for unique Google Scholar citations outside the WoS were 73% and
60% for the articles published in JASIST and Scientometrics, respectively. An
important conclusion is that in subject areas where wider types of intellectual
impact indicators outside the WoS and Scopus databases are needed for research
evaluation, IOI can be used to help monitor research performance. (C) 2009 Elsevier

AB The h-index and some related bibliometric indices have received a lot of
attention from the scientific community in the last few years due to some of their
good properties ( easiness of computation, balance between quantity of publications
and their impact and so on). Many different indicators have been developed in order
to extend and overcome the drawbacks of the original Hirsch proposal. In this
contribution we present a comprehensive review on the h-index and related
indicators field. From the initial h-index proposal we study their main advantages,
drawbacks and the main applications that we can find in the literature. A
description of many of the h-related indices that have been developed along with
their main characteristics and some of the works that analyze and compare them are
presented. We also review the most up to date standardization studies that allow a
fair comparison by means of the h-index among scientists from different research
areas and finally, some works that analyze the computation of the h-index and
related indices by using different citation databases (ISI Citation Indexes, Google
Scholar and Scopus) are introduced. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Experimental data [Mansilla, R., Koppen, E., Cocho, G., & Miramontes, P. (2007).
On the behavior of journal impact factor rank-order distribution. Journal of
Informetrics, 1(2), 155-160] reveal that, if one ranks a set of journals (e. g. in
a field) in decreasing order of their impact factors, the rank distribution of the
logarithm of these impact factors has a typical S-shape: first a convex decrease,
followed by a concave decrease. In this paper we give a mathematical formula for
this distribution and explain the S-shape. Also the experimentally found smaller
convex part and larger concave part is explained. If one studies the rank
distribution of the impact factors themselves, we now prove that we have the same
S-shape but with inflection point in mu, the average of the impact factors. These
distributions are valid for any type of impact factor (any publication period and
any citation period). They are even valid for any sample average rank distribution.

AB The prevalence of uncited papers or of highly cited papers, with respect to the
bulk of publications, provides important clues as to the dynamics of scientific
research. Using 25 million papers and 600 million references from the Web of
Science over the 1900-2006 period, this paper proposes a simple model based on a
random selection process to explain the "uncitedness" phenomenon and its decline
over the years. We show that the proportion of cited papers is a function of (1)
the number of articles available (the competing papers), (2) the number of citing
papers and (3) the number of references they contain. Using uncitedness as a
departure point, we demonstrate the utility of the stretched-exponential function
and a form of the Tsallis q-exponential function to fit complete citation
distributions over the 20th century. As opposed to simple power-law fits, for
instance, both these approaches are shown to be empirically well-grounded and
robust enough to better understand citation dynamics at the aggregate level. On the
basis of these models, we provide quantitative evidence and provisional
explanations for an important shift in citation practices around 1960. We also
propose a revision of the "citation classic" category as a set of articles which is
clearly distinguishable from the rest of the field. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB This paper classifies common journal evaluation indicators into three
categories, namely three first-level indicators. They are respectively the
indicators on journal impact, on timeliness, and on journal characteristics. The
data used here is drawn from the medical journals in CSTPCD, a citation database
built by the Institute of Scientific and Technical Information of China. The three
categories of indicators are correlated with one another, so a structural equation
may be established. Then we calculate the value of three first-level indicators and
give subjective weights to the indicators. The comprehensive evaluation upon the
medical journals yields satisfactory results. By simulating the complex
relationship among journal indicators, the structural equation can be used for the
estimation of some implicit indicators and the screening of indicators. This
approach provides a new perspective for scientific and technological evaluation in
general sense. It should be noted that the availability of basic data and the
rationality of modeling bear much upon the evaluation results. (C) 2009 Elsevier

and tests the method with relevant data on agricultural journals provided by the
Institute of Scientific & Technical Information of China. An evaluation exercise by
the TOPSIS method is conducted as a comparison. The result shows that panel data
analysis is an effective method for indicator selection in scholarly journal
evaluation; journals of different disciplines should not be evaluated with the same
criteria; it is beneficial to publish all the evaluation indicators; unavailability
of a few indicators has a limited influence on evaluation results; simplifying
indicators can reduce costs and increase efficiency as well as accuracy of journal

innovation system
LA English
DT Article
DE Scale-independence; National innovation system; Performance
ID SCIENCE SYSTEM; INDICATORS; COLLABORATION; IMPACT; RULES
AB In this paper we use scale-independent indicators to explore the performance of
the Chinese innovation system from an economic and from a science and technology
point of view, and compare it with 21 other nations. Some important developments in
the Chinese innovation system, hidden by rankings by conventional performance
indicators, were revealed. We find that gross domestic expenditure on R&D (GERD) &
gross domestic product (GDP) and GDP & POP (population) all exhibit strong 'Matthew
effects', measured by their scaling factors. This means that the Chinese R&D
intensity (GERD/GDP) and national wealth (GDP per capita) are growing significantly
with the increase of the GDP. Also pairs such as citations & papers, papers & GDP,
citations & GDP, and paper & GERD exhibit these 'Matthew effects'. This observation
points to the fact that in China scientific outputs and impacts are growing faster
than economic growth and research investment. However, according to another scale-
independent indicator, namely the adjusted relative citation impact (ARCI), China
ranks on the bottom of the list, but the growth rate of the ARCI is the highest
among these countries (comparing the periods 1995-1999 and 2001-2005). To sum up,
we interpret these findings to mean that the scientific outputs and impacts of
China show a real tendency of catching up with its economic growth. It is expected
that with an increase of its GDP and R&D intensity China will show a sustained
increase in indicators related to science and technology. Similarly, there are very
strong 'Matthew effects' between the outputs of technology (patents) and economic
growth and research investment. This means that the outputs of technology are
expected to increase considerably with an increase of GDP and R&D expenditure.
Furthermore, in the Chinese innovation system the government intramural expenditure
on R&D (GOVERD) has a stronger non-linear impact on patent productivity than
business enterprise expenditure on R&D (BERD). This shows that in China research
institutions financed by the government play a more important role than
enterprises. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The behavior of co-citation clusters is studied over a wide range of similarity
values, and we demonstrate the existence of critical or percolation transitions
marked by a sudden expansion of cluster size with a small decrease in similarity
which, in most cases, reflects the emergence of a giant component on the overall
graph for the dataset. The study was motivated by the question of how to set
appropriate thresholds for delineating individual research areas that identify, as
far as possible, natural boundaries, in view of the fact that a threshold or
criterion appropriate for one area may not be appropriate for another. We explore
the rate of change in cluster size as a possible boundary indicator. The
relationship of this critical behavior to maps of science is discussed. (C) 2009

AB The following seniority-independent Hirsch-type index has been defined. A
scientist has index hpd if hpd of his/her papers have at least hpd citations per
decade each, and his/her other papers have less than hpd + 1 citations per decade
each. In contrast with the original h-index, which steadily increases in time, hpd
of a mature scientist is nearly constant over many years, and hpd of an inactive
scientist slowly declines. Therefore hpd is suitable to compare the scientific
output of scientists in different ages. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Selection processes are never faultless. We investigate the predictive validity
of the manuscript selection process at Angewandte Chemie International Edition (AC-
IE), one of the prime chemistry journals worldwide, and conducted a citation
analysis for manuscripts that were accepted by the journal or rejected but
published elsewhere (n = 1817). With the bibliometric data, we were able to
calculate the extent of type I and type II errors of the selection decisions. We
found that the decisions regarding 15% of the manuscripts show a type I error
(accepted manuscripts that did not perform as well as or worse than the average
rejected manuscript). Moreover, the decisions regarding 15% of the manuscripts are
affected by a type II error (rejected manuscripts that performed equal to or above
the average accepted manuscript). (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In response to the call for a science of science policy, we discuss the
contribution of indicators at the macro-level of nations from a scientometric
perspective. In addition to global trends such as the rise of China, one can relate
percentages of world share of publications to government expenditure in academic
research. The marginal costs of improving one's share are increasing over time.
Countries differ considerably in terms of the efficiency of turning ( financial)
input into bibliometrically measurable output. Both funding schemes and
disciplinary portfolios differ among countries. A price per paper can nevertheless
be estimated. The percentages of GDP spent on academic research in different
nations are significantly correlated to historical contingencies such as the
percentage of researchers in the population. The institutional dynamics make
strategic objectives such as the Lisbon objective of the EU - that is, spending 3%
of GDP for R&D in 2010 - unrealistic. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In a recent paper, Egghe [Egghe, L. (in press). Mathematical derivation of the
impact factor distribution. Journal of Informetrics] presents a mathematical
analysis of the rank-order distribution of journal impact factors. The analysis is
based on the central limit theorem. We criticize the empirical relevance of Egghe's
analysis. More specifically, we argue that Egghe's analysis relies on an
unrealistic assumption and we show that the analysis is not in agreement with
empirical data. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB While ISSI was founded in 1993, Scientometrics and Bibliometrics are now at
least half a century old. Indeed, the field can be traced to early quantitative
studies in the early 20th century. In the 1930s, it evolved to the "science of
science." The publication of J.D. Bernal's Social Function of Science in 1939 was a
key transition point but the field lay dormant until after World War II, when
D.J.D. Price's books Science Since Babylon and Little Science, Big Science were
published in 1961 and 1963. His role as the "Father of Scientometrics" is clearly
evident by using the HistCite software to visualize his impact as well as the
subsequent impact of the journal Scientometrics on the growth of the field.
Scientometrics owes its name to V.V. Nalimov, the author of Naukometriya, and to
Tibor Braun who adapted the neologism for the journal. The primordial paper on
citation indexing by Garfield which appeared in Science 1955 became a bridge
between Bernal and Price. The timeline for the evolution of Scientometrics is
demonstrated by a HistCite tabulation of the ranked citation index of the 100,000
references cited in the 3000 papers citing Price. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB In this paper, we examine how patterns of scientific collaboration contribute to
knowledge creation and diffusion. Recent studies have shown that scientists can
benefit from their position within collaborative networks by being able to receive
more information of better quality in a timely fashion, and by presiding over
communication between collaborators. Here we focus on the tendency of scientists to
cluster into tightly knit communities, and discuss the implications of this
tendency for scientific production. We begin by reviewing a new method for finding
communities, and we then assess its benefits in terms of computation time and
accuracy. While communities often serve as a taxonomic scheme to map knowledge
domains, they also affect the way scientists engage in the creation of new
knowledge. By drawing on the longstanding debate on the relative benefits of social
cohesion and brokerage, we discuss the conditions that facilitate collaborations
among scientists within or across communities. We show that highly cited scientific
production occurs within communities, when scientists have cohesive collaborations
with others from the same knowledge domain, and across communities, when scientists
intermediate among otherwise disconnected collaborators from different knowledge
domains. We also discuss the implications of communities for information diffusion,
and show how traditional epidemiological approaches need to be refined to take
knowledge heterogeneity into account and preserve the system's ability to promote
creative processes of novel recombinations of ideas. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB We propose an explanatory and computational theory of transformative discoveries
in science. The theory is derived from a recurring theme found in a diverse range
of scientific change, scientific discovery, and knowledge diffusion theories in
philosophy of science, sociology of science, social network analysis, and
information science. The theory extends the concept of structural holes from social
networks to a broader range of associative networks found in science studies,
especially including networks that reflect underlying intellectual structures such
as co-citation networks and collaboration networks. The central premise is that
connecting otherwise disparate patches of knowledge is a valuable mechanism of
creative thinking in general and transformative scientific discovery in particular.
In addition, the premise consistently explains the value of connecting people from
different disciplinary specialties. The theory not only explains the nature of
transformative discoveries in terms of the brokerage mechanism but also
characterizes the subsequent diffusion process as optimal information foraging in a
problem space. Complementary to epidemiological models of diffusion, foraging-based
conceptualizations offer a unified framework for arriving at insightful discoveries
and optimizing subsequent pathways of search in a problem space. Structural and
temporal properties of potentially high-impact scientific discoveries are derived
from the theory to characterize the emergence and evolution of intellectual
networks of a field. Two Nobel Prize winning discoveries, the discovery of
Helicobacter pylori and gene targeting techniques, and a discovery in string theory
demonstrated such properties. Connections to and differences from existing
approaches are discussed. The primary value of the theory is that it provides not
only a computational model of intellectual growth, but also concrete and
constructive explanations of where one may find insightful inspirations for
transformative scientific discoveries. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We analyze the advent and development of eight scientific fields from their
inception to maturity and map the evolution of their networks of collaboration over
time, measured in terms of co-authorship of scientific papers. We show that as a
field develops it undergoes a topological transition in its collaboration structure
between a small disconnected graph to a much larger network where a giant connected
component of collaboration appears. As a result, the number of edges and nodes in
the largest component undergoes a transition between a small fraction of the total
to a majority of all occurrences. These results relate to many qualitative
observations of the evolution of technology and discussions of the "structure of
scientific revolutions". We analyze this qualitative change in network topology in
terms of several quantitative graph theoretical measures, such as density,
diameter, and relative size of the network's largest component.
To analyze examples of scientific discovery we built databases of scientific
publications based on keyword and citation searches, for eight fields, spanning
experimental and theoretical science, across areas as diverse as physics,
biomedical sciences, and materials science. Each of the databases was vetted by
field experts and is the result of a bibliometric search constructed to maximize
coverage, while minimizing the occurrence of spurious records. In this way we built
databases of publications and authors for superstring theory, cosmic strings and
other topological defects, cosmological inflation, carbon nanotubes, quantum
computing and computation, prions and scrapie, and H5N1 influenza. We also built a
database for a classical example of "pathological" science, namely cold fusion. All
these fields also vary in size and in their temporal patterns of development, with
some showing explosive growth from an original identifiable discovery (e.g. carbon
nanotubes) while others are characterized by a slow process of development (e.g.
quantum computers and computation).
We show that regardless of the detailed nature of their developmental paths, the
process of scientific discovery and the rearrangement of the collaboration
structure of emergent fields is characterized by a number of universal features,
suggesting that the process of discovery and initial formation of a scientific
field, characterized by the moments of discovery, invention and subsequent
transition into "normal science" may be understood in general terms, as a process
of cognitive and social unification out of many initially separate efforts.
Pathological fields, seemingly, never undergo this transition, despite hundreds of
publications and the involvement of many authors. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB We propose a research program to analyse spatial aspects of the science system.
First, we provide a review of scientometric studies that already explicitly take
the spatial dimension into account. The review includes studies on (i) the spatial
distribution of research and citations, (ii) the existence of spatial biases in
collaboration, citations and mobility, and (iii) the citation impact of national
versus international collaborations. Then, we address a number of methodological
issues in dealing with space in scientometrics. Finally, to integrate spatial and
non-spatial approaches, we propose an analytical framework based on the concept of
proximity. A proximity approach allows for combining hypotheses from different
theoretical perspectives into a single framework. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

knowledge domain visualization

information science; Knowledge domain visualization; Geography

AB Visual depiction of the structure and evolution of science has been proposed as
a key strategy for dealing with the large, complex, and increasingly
interdisciplinary records of scientific communication. While every such
visualization assumes the existence of spatial structures within the system of
science, new methods and tools are rarely linked to thorough reflection on the
underlying spatial concepts. Meanwhile, geographic information science has adopted
a view of geographic space as conceptualized through the duality of discrete
objects and continuous fields. This paper argues that conceptualization of science
has been dominated by a view of its constituent elements (e.g., authors, articles,
journals, disciplines) as discrete objects. It is proposed that, like in geographic
information science, alternative concepts could be used for the same phenomenon.
For example, one could view an author as either a discrete object at a specific
location or as a continuous field occupying all of a discipline. It is further
proposed that this duality of spatial concepts can extend to the methods by which
low-dimensional geometric models of high-dimensional scientific spaces are created
and used. This can result in new methods revealing different kinds of insights.
This is demonstrated by a juxtaposition of two visualizations of an author's
intellectual evolution on the basis of either a discrete or continuous
conceptualization. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID SCIENCE; SCOPUS
AB e-Research is a rapidly growing research area, both in terms of publications and
in terms of funding. In this article we argue that it is necessary to
reconceptualize the ways in which we seek to measure and understand e-Research by
developing a sociology of knowledge based on our understanding of how science has
been transformed historically and shifted into online forms. Next, we report data
which allows the examination of e-Research through a variety of traces in order to
begin to understand how knowledge in the realm of e-Research has been and is being
constructed. These data indicate that e-Research has had a variable impact in
different fields of research. We argue that only an overall account of the scale
and scope of e-Research within and between different fields makes it possible to
identify the organizational coherence and diffuseness of e-Research in terms of its
socio-technical networks, and thus to identify the contributions of e-Research to
various research fronts in the online production of knowledge. (C) 2009 Elsevier

AB Discursive knowledge emerges as codification in flows of communication. The
flows of communication are constrained and enabled by networks of communications as
their historical manifestations at each moment of time. New publications modify the
existing networks by changing the distributions of attributes and relations in
document sets, while the networks are self-referentially updated along
trajectories. Codification operates reflexively: the network structures are
reconstructed from the perspective of hindsight. Codification along different axes
differentiates discursive knowledge into specialties. These intellectual control
structures are constructed bottom-up, but feed top-down back upon the production of
new knowledge. However, the forward dynamics of diffusion in the development of the
communication networks along trajectories differs from the feedback mechanisms of
control. Analysis of the development of scientific communication in terms of
evolving scientific literatures provides us with a model which makes these
evolutionary processes amenable to measurement. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Governmental initiatives around scientific policy have progressively raised
collaboration to priority status. In this context, a need has arisen to broaden the
traditional approach to the analysis and study of research results by descending to
the group or even the individual scale and supplementing the output-,
productivity-, visibility- and impact-based focus with new measures that emphasize
collaboration from the vantage of structural analysis. To this end, the present
paper proposes new hybrid indicators for the analysis and evaluation of individual
research results, popularity and prestige, that combine bibliometric and structural
aspects. A case study was conducted of the nine most productive departments in
Carlos III University of Madrid. The findings showed hybridization to be a tool
sensitive to traditional indicators, but also to the new demands of modern science
as a self-organized system of interaction among individuals, furnishing information
on researchers' environments and the behaviour and attitudes adopted within those
environments. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Automatic evaluation of digital libraries with 5SQual
LA English

ID MODEL
AB Digital libraries (DLs) are complex information systems which can present
changes in their structure, content, and services. These complexities and dynamics
make system maintenance a non-trivial task, since it requires periodical evaluation
of the different DL components. Generally, these evaluations are customized per
system and are performed only when problems occur and administrator intervention is
required. This work aims to change the situation. We present 5SQual, a tool which
provides ways to perform automatic and configurable evaluations of some of the most
important DL components, among them, digital objects, metadata, and services. The
tool implements diverse numeric indicators that are associated with eight quality
dimensions described in the 5S quality model. Its generic architecture was
developed to be applicable to various DLs and scenarios. In sum, the main
contributions of this work include: (i) the design and implementation of 5SQual, a
tool that validates a theoretical DL quality model; (ii) the demonstration of the
applicability of the tool in several usage scenarios; and (iii) the evaluation
(with usability specialists) of its graphical interface specially designed to guide
the configuration of 5SQual evaluations. We also present the results of interviews
conducted with administrators of real DLs regarding their expectations and opinions
about 5SQual. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The use of scholarly publications that have not been formally published in e.g.
journals is widespread in some fields. In the past they have been disseminated
through various channels of informal communication. However, the Internet has
enabled dissemination of these un-published and often unrefereed publications to a
much wider audience. This is particularly interesting seen in relation to the
highly disputed open access advantage as the potential advantage for low visibility
publications has not been given much attention in the literature. The present study
examines the role of working papers in economics during a 10-year period (1996-
2005). It shows that working papers are increasingly becoming visible in the field
specific databases. The impact of working papers is relatively low; however, high
impact working paper series have citation rate levels similar to the low impact
journals in the field. There is no tendency to an increase in impact during the 10
years which is the case for the high impact journals. Consequently, the result of
this study does not provide evidence of an open access advantage for working papers
in economics. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this communication we perform an analysis of European science, investigating
the way countries are joined in clusters according to their similarity. An
extremely clear pattern arises, suggesting that geographical and cultural factors
strongly influence the scientific fabric of these countries. Although it is seen
that one of the major factors behind Science in Europe is, apparently, geographical
proximity, bilateral cooperation between countries cannot fully account for the
respective similarity. Long-term policies, planning and investment are also visible
in the results. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Sentiment analysis is an important current research area. This paper combines
rule-based classification, supervised learning and machine learning into a new
combined method. This method is tested on movie reviews, product reviews and
MySpace comments. The results show that a hybrid classification can improve the
classification effectiveness in terms of micro- and macro-averaged F-1. F-1 is a
measure that takes both the precision and recall of a classifier's effectiveness
into account. In addition, we propose a semi-automatic, complementary approach in
which each classifier can contribute to other classifiers to achieve a good level
of effectiveness. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this paper we present a number of metrics for usage of the SAO/NASA
Astrophysics Data System(ADS). Since the ADS is used by the entire astronomical
community, these are indicative of how the astronomical literature is used. We will
show how the use of the ADS has changed both quantitatively and qualitatively. We
will also show that different types of users access the system in different ways.
Finally, we show how use of the ADS has evolved over the years in various regions
of the world. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

LA English

humanities; Book publishers; Bibliometric indicators; Economics
ID CO-WORD ANALYSIS; MANAGEMENT; INDICATORS; SOCIOLOGY
AB This paper explores the use of Library Catalog Analysis (LCA), defined as the
application of bibliometric or informetric techniques to a set of library online
catalogs, to describe quantitatively a scientific-scholarly field on the basis of
published book titles. It focuses on its value as a tool in studies of Social
Sciences and Humanities, especially its cognitive structures, main book publishers
and the research performance of its actors. The paper proposes an analogy model
between traditional citation analysis of journal articles and Library Catalog
Analysis of book titles. It presents the outcomes of an exploratory study of book
titles in Economics included in 42 academic library catalogs from 7 countries. It
describes the process of data collection and cleaning, and applies a series of
indicators and thematic mapping techniques. It illustrates how LCA can be
fruitfully used to assess book production and research performance at the level of
an individual researcher, a research department, an entire country and a book
publisher. It discusses a number of issues that should be addressed in follow-up
studies and concludes that LCA of published book titles can be developed into a
powerful and useful tool in studies of Social Sciences and Humanities. (C) 2008

AB Examining a comprehensive set of papers (n = 1837) that were accepted for
publication by the journal Angewandte Chemie International Edition (one of the
prime chemistry journals in the world) or rejected by the journal but then
published elsewhere, this study tested the extent to which the use of the freely
available database Google Scholar (GS) can be expected to yield valid citation
counts in the field of chemistry. Analyses of citations for the set of papers
returned by three fee-based databases - Science Citation Index, Scopus, and
Chemical Abstracts - were compared to the analysis of citations found using GS
data. Whereas the analyses using citations returned by the three fee-based
databases show very similar results, the results of the analysis using GS citation
data differed greatly from the findings using citations from the fee-based
databases. Our study therefore supports, on the one hand, the convergent validity
of citation analyses based on data from the fee-based databases and, on the other
hand, the lack of convergent validity of the citation analysis based on the GS
data. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The aim of the paper is to investigate the use of online data and time series
analysis, in order to study the dynamics of new types of research collaboration in
a systematic way. Two international research teams were studied for more than 3
years, and quantitative data about their internet use together with observation of
their collaboration patterns were gathered. Time series analysis (ARIMA modelling)
was performed on their use of internet, and specific types of models related to
specific ways of conducting research at a distance. The paper proposes the use of
online data and ARIMA models to identify the stabilisation of a complex system,
such as a research team, and investigate everyday research practices. (C) 2008

ID INFORMATION; TESTS
AB This paper treats document-document similarity approaches in the context of
science mapping. Five approaches, involving nine methods, are compared
experimentally. We compare text-based approaches, the citation-based bibliographic
coupling approach, and approaches that combine text-based approaches and
bibliographic coupling. Forty-three articles, published in the journal Information
Retrieval, are used as test documents. We investigate how well the approaches agree
with a ground truth subject classification of the test documents, when the complete
linkage method is used, and under two types of similarities, first-order and
second-order. The results show that it is possible to achieve a very good
approximation of the classification by means of automatic grouping of articles. One
text-only method and one combination method, under second-order similarities in
both cases, give rise to cluster solutions that to a large extent agree with the
classification. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The definitions of the rational and real-valued variants of the h-index and g-
index are reviewed. It is shown how they can be obtained both graphically and by
calculation. Formulae are derived expressing the exact relations between the h-
variants and between the g-variants. Subsequently these relations are examined. In
a citation context the real h-index is often, but not always, smaller than the
rational h-index. It is also shown that the relation between the real and the
rational g-index depends on the number of citations of the article ranked g + 1.
Maximum differences between h, h(r) and h(rat) on the one hand and between g, g(r)
and g(rat) on the other are determined. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID CATEGORIZATION
AB In this paper a machine learning approach for classifying Arabic text documents
is presented. To handle the high dimensionality of text documents, embeddings are
used to map each document ( instance) into R ( the set of real numbers)
representing the tri-gram frequency statistics profiles for a document.
Classification is achieved by computing a dissimilarity measure, called the
Manhattan distance, between the pro. le of the instance to be classified and the
profiles of all the instances in the training set. The class ( category) to which

AB The problem of ranking is a crucial task in the web information retrieval
systems. The dynamic nature of information resources as well as the continuous
changes in the information demands of the users has made it very difficult to
provide effective methods for data mining and document ranking. Regarding these
challenges, in this paper an adaptive ranking algorithm is proposed named GPRank.
This algorithm which is a function discovery framework, utilizes the relatively
simple features of web documents to provide suitable rankings using a
multi-layer/multi-population genetic programming architecture. Experiments done,
illustrate that GPRank has better performance in comparison with well-known ranking
techniques and also against its full mode edition. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB We introduce two new measures of the performance of a scientist. One measure,
referred to as the h(alpha)-index, generalizes the well-known h-index or Hirsch
index. The other measure, referred to as the g(alpha)-index, generalizes the
closely related g-index. We analyze theoretically the relationship between the
h(alpha)-and g(alpha)-indices on the one hand and some simple measures of
scientific performance on the other hand. We also study the behavior of the
h(alpha)-and g(alpha)-indices empirically. Some advantages of the h(alpha)- and
g(alpha)-indices over the h- and g-indices are pointed out. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

ID INNOVATION; TRAJECTORIES; KNOWLEDGE
AB The general aim of this paper is to show the results of a study in which we
combined bibliometric mapping and citation network analysis to investigate the
process of creation and transfer of knowledge through scientific publications. The
novelty of this approach is the combination of both methods. In this case we
analyzed the citations to a very influential paper published in 1990 that contains,
for the first time, the term Absorptive Capacity. A bibliometric map identified the
terms and the theories associated with the term while two techniques from the
citation network analysis recognized the main papers during 15 years. As a result
we identified the articles that influenced the research for some time and linked
them into a research tradition that can be considered the backbone of the
"Absorptive Capacity Field". (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID PREDICTIVE-VALIDITY; DECISIONS; SELECTION; FAIRNESS
AB The universalism norm of the ethos of science requires that contributions to
science are not excluded because of the contributors' gender, nationality, social
status, or other irrelevant criteria. Here, a generalized latent variable modeling
approach is presented that grant program managers at a funding organization can use
in order to obtain indications of potential sources of bias in their peer review
process (such as the applicants' gender). To implement the method, the data
required are the number of approved and number of rejected applicants for grants
among different groups (for example, women and men or natural and social
scientists). Using the generalized latent variable modeling approach indications of
potential sources of bias can be examined not only for grant peer review but also
for journal peer review. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

coverage; Rankings
ID BASIC RESEARCH; QUALITY
AB This paper reviews a number of studies comparing Thomson Scientific's Web of
Science (WoS) and Elsevier's Scopus. It collates their journal coverage in an
important medical subfield: oncology. It is found that all WoS-covered oncological
journals (n = 126) are indexed in Scopus, but that Scopus covers many more journals
(an additional n = 106). However, the latter group tends to have much lower impact
factors than WoS covered journals. Among the top 25% of sources with the highest
impact factors in Scopus, 94% is indexed in the WoS, and for the bottom 25% only
6%. In short, in oncology the WoS is a genuine subset of Scopus, and tends to cover
the best journals from it in terms of citation impact per paper. Although Scopus
covers 90% more oncological journals compared to WoS, the average Scopus-based
impact factor for journals indexed by both databases is only 2.6% higher than that
based on WoS data. Results reflect fundamental differences in coverage policies:
the WoS based on Eugene Garfield's concepts of covering a selective set of most
frequently used (cited) journals; Scopus with broad coverage, more similar to large
disciplinary literature databases. The paper also found that 'classical', WoS-based
impact factors strongly correlate with a new, Scopus-based metric, SCImago
JournalRank (SJR), one of a series of new indicators founded on earlier work by
Pinski and Narin [Pinski, G., & Narin F. (1976). Citation influence for journal
aggregates of scientific publications: Theory, with application to the literature
of physics. Information Processing and Management, 12, 297 - 312] that weight
citations according to the prestige of the citing journal (Spearman's rho = 0.93).

AB International collaboration as measured by co-authorship relations on refereed
papers grew linearly from 1990 to 2005 in terms of the number of papers, but
exponentially in terms of the number of international addresses. This confirms
Persson et al.' s [ Persson, O., Glanzel, W., & Danell, R. (2004). Inflationary
bibliometrics values: The role of scientific collaboration and the need for
relative indicators in evaluative studies. Scientometrics, 60(3), 421 - 432]
hypothesis of an inflation in international collaboration. Patterns in
international collaboration in science can be considered as network effects, since
there is no political institution mediating relationships at that level except for
the initiatives of the European Commission. Science at the international level
shares features with other complex adaptive systems whose order arises from the
interactions of hundreds of agents pursuing self-interested strategies. During the
period 2000 - 2005, the network of global collaborations appears to have reinforced
the formation of a core group of fourteen most cooperative countries. This core
group can be expected to use knowledge from the global network with great
efficiency, since these countries have strong national systems. Countries at the
periphery may be disadvantaged by the increased strength of the core. (C) 2008

AB An expert ranking of forestry journals was compared with Journal Impact Factors
and h-indices computed from the ISI Web of Science and internet-based data.
Citations reported by Google Scholar offer an efficient way to rank all journals
objectively, in a manner consistent with other indicators. This h-index exhibited a

AB Using the example of microarrays, one of the constitutive technologies of post-
genomic biomedicine, this paper introduces a method for analyzing publications,
patents and research grants as proxies for "triple-helix interfaces" between
university, industry and government activities. Our method creates bridges that
allow one to move seamlessly between publication, patent and research project
databases that use different fields and formats, and contain different information.
These links do not require pre-defined categories in order to search for
correspondences between sub-topics or research areas in the three databases.
Finally, our results are not restricted to quantitative information but, rather,
allow one to carry out qualitative investigations of the content of research
activities. Our approach draws on a combination of text-mining and network
analysis/mapping software packages. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The relative performance of science and technology (S&T) in the USA and PRC was
compared in terms of quantity and quality, as reflected in their technical
literatures. Three databases (Science Citation Index (SCI), INSPEC, Ei Compendex)
were selected for the quantity comparison, and citation analysis in the SCI was
used for the quality comparison. Thirty technology and research areas were compared
for quantity production, and are presented in this paper. These 30 areas were
selected based on our previous assessment of PRC S&T output, and represented areas
of emphasis by the PRC in physical, environmental, engineering, and life sciences.
In almost all technical areas, the USA had the quantity (number of papers) lead
(for the period 2002 - 2007) based on the SCI results, although the PRC has made
dramatic strides to overtake the USA. In most of the technical areas, by 2007 PRC
had attained parity with, or exceeded, the S&T literature production of the USA in
the INSPEC database. The major exceptions were the biomedical field and some
aspects of environmental science, where the USA still had a large lead. For most
technical areas, by 2007 the PRC had even higher relative S&T literature
production, based on the Ei Compendex, compared to the INSPEC results. Moreover,
the USA production appears to have peaked (in the Ei Compendex) in the 2005 time
frame, despite increasing amounts of funding for S&T research. The PRC challenge in
non-biomedical research and technology sectors becomes apparent in those databases
that do not contain substantial biomedical research papers, and therefore remove a
substantial intrinsic USA advantage.
For quality computations, the publication and citation results were normalized
to discrete slices of time, and are presented for nanotechnology only (for the
period 1998 - 2003). While the USA held a commanding lead in quality over the PRC
(and the other major nanotechnology producer nations as well) during the past
decade, the PRC has increased the quality of its publications monotonically, and
now appears to be competitive with France, Italy, Japan, and Australia, using the
quality metric in this paper. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In a recent paper in the Journal of Informetrics, Habibzadeh and Yadollahie
[Habibzadeh, F., & Yadollahie, M. (2008). Journal weighted impact factor: A
proposal. Journal of Informetrics, 2(2), 164 - 172] propose a journal weighted
impact factor (WIF). Unlike the ordinary impact factor, the WIF of a journal takes
into account the prestige or the influence of citing journals. In this
communication, we show that the way in which Habibzadeh and Yadollahie calculate
the WIF of a journal has some serious problems. Due to these problems, a ranking of
journals based on WIF can be misleading. We also indicate how the problems can be
solved by changing the way in which the WIF of a journal is calculated. (C) 2008

AB The relationship between science and technology has been extensively studied
from both theoretical and quantitative perspectives. Quantitative studies typically
use patents as proxy for technology and scientific papers as proxy for science, and
investigate the relationship between the two. Most such studies have been limited
to a single discipline or country. In this paper, we investigate science-technology
interaction over a broad range of science and technology by identifying and
validating a set of 18,251 inventor-authors through matching of rare names obtained
from paper and patent data. These inventor-authors are listed as inventors on
nearly 56,000 US patents between 2002 and 2006. Analysis of the distribution of
these patents over classes shows that this 6.7% sample is a suitable sample for
further analysis. In addition, a map of 290 IPC patent subclasses was created,
showing the relationship between patent classes and industries as well as the
distribution of patent classes with high science orientation and low science
orientation. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI On the relationship between the structural and socioacademic communities
of a coauthorship network

DT Article
DE social networks; structures and organization in human complex systems;

ID SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATION; PATTERNS
AB This article presents a study that compares detected structural communities in a
coauthorship network to the socioacademic characteristics of the scholars that
compose the network. The coauthorship network was created from the bibliographic
record of a multi-institution, interdisciplinary research group focused on the
study of sensor networks and wireless communication. Four different community
detection algorithms were employed to assign a structural community to each scholar
in the network: leading eigenvector, walktrap, edge betweenness and spinglass.
Socioacademic characteristics were gathered from the scholars and include such
information as their academic department, academic affiliation, country of origin,
and academic position. A Pearson's chi(2)test, with a simulated Monte Carlo,
revealed that structural communities best represent groupings of individuals
working in the same academic department and at the same institution. A
generalization of this result suggests that, even in interdisciplinary, multi-
institutional research groups, coauthorship is primarily driven by departmental and
institutional affiliation. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID SCIENTIFIC-RESEARCH
AB In order to take multiple co-authorship appropriately into account, a
straightforward modi. cation of the Hirsch index was recently proposed.
Fractionalised counting of the papers yields an appropriate measure which is called
the h(m)-index. The effect of this procedure is compared in the present work with
other variants of the h-index and found to be superior to the fractionalised
counting of citations and to the normalization of the h-index with the average
number of authors in the h-core. Three fictitious examples for model cases and one

AB In the grant peer review process we can distinguish various evaluation stages in
which assessors judge applications on a rating scale. Research on the grant peer
review process that considers its multi-stage character scarcely exists. In this
study we analyze 1954 applications for doctoral and post-doctoral fellowships from
the Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds (B.I.F.), which are evaluated in three stages
(first: evaluation by an external reviewer; second: internal evaluation by a staff
member; third:final decision by the B. I. F. Board of Trustees). The results of a
latent Markov model ( in combination with latent class analysis) show that a
fellowship application has a chance of approval only if it is recommended for
support already in the first evaluation stage, that is, if the external reviewer's
evaluation is positive. Based on these results, a form of triage or pre-screening
of applications seems desirable. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE author co-citation analysis; bibliometrics; information science; Scopus;

AB Although it is generally understood that different citation counting methods can
produce quite different author rankings, and although "optimal" author co-citation
counting methods have been identified theoretically, studies that compare author
co-citation counting methods in author co-citation analysis (ACA) studies are still
rare. The present study applies strict all-author-based ACA to the Information
Science (IS) field, in that all authors of all cited references in a classic IS
dataset are counted, and in that even the diagonal values of the co-citation matrix
are computed in their theoretically optimal form. Using Scopus instead of SSCI as
the data source, we find that results from a theoretically optimal all-author ACA
appear to be excellent in practice, too, although in a field like IS where co-
authorship levels are relatively low, its advantages over classic first-author ACA
appear considerably smaller than in the more highly collaborative ones targeted
before. Nevertheless, we do find some differences between the two approaches, in
that first-author ACA appears to favor theorists who presumably tend to work alone,
while all-author ACA appears to paint a somewhat more recent picture of the field,
and to pick out some collaborative author clusters. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB Informetric researchers have long chafed at the limitations of bibliographic
databases for their analyses, without being able to visualize or develop real
solutions to the problem. This paper describes a solution developed to provide for
the specialist needs of informetric researchers. In a collaborative exercise
between the fields of computer science and informetrics, data modelling was used in
order to address the requirements of complex and dynamic informetric data. This
paper reports on this modelling experience with its aim of building an object-
relational database (ORDB) for informetric research purposes. The paper argues that
ORM (object-relational model) is particularly suitable because it allows for the
modelling of complex data and accommodates the various data source formats and
standards used by a variety of bibliographic databases. Further, ORM captures the
dynamic nature of informetric data by allowing user-defined data types and by
embedding basic statistical calculating tools as object functions in these user-
defined data types. The main ideas of the paper are implemented in an Oracle
database management system. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI The influence of merging on h-type indices
LA English
DT Article
DE merging; h-index; g-index; R-index; weighted h-index
AB Each information production process has a unique h-index. This paper studies the
problem: what are possible h-index values if we merge two or more IPPs?
First the paper gives examples of IPP mergings. There are at least two types:
one where common sources add their number of items and one where common sources get
the maximum of their number of items in the two IPPs.
In each case we show that
max(h(1), h(2)) <= h <= h(1) + h(2)
for both types of mergings (h(i), i = 1, 2 the h-index in the two IPPs; h is the
h-index in the merged one).
We show that the above inequalities cannot be improved ( in both merging types).
We also show that the same inequalities are true for the g-index and the R-index
but that they are false for the weighted h-index. For the R-index we can even
refine the above inequality
R <= root R-1(2) + R-2(2) < R-1 + R-2. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper describes a new algorithm for finding and tracking different subjects
within an ongoing debate. The algorithm finds blocks of co-occurring terms,
representing subjects, including blocks for which the term co-occurrence pattern
forms a ring topology. We used short online debate forum data and longer summary
bulletins to assess the extent to which the algorithm could correctly detect
subjects, according to the judgements of human evaluators. The results show that it
could normally detect subject-shifting and track different subjects over time in
online debate forums and with adjustments could find subjects in bulletins, but
could not track the subjects in the bulletins because the interlinking between
subjects was too dense in the longer documents. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB The paper introduces a new journal impact measure called The Reference Return
Ratio (3R). Unlike the traditional Journal Impact Factor (JIF), which is based on
calculations of publications and citations, the new measure is based on
calculations of bibliographic investments (references) and returns (citations). A
comparative study of the two measures shows a strong relationship between the 3R
and the JIF. Yet, the 3R appears to correct for citation habits, citation dynamics,
and composition of document types - problems that typically are raised against the
JIF. In addition, contrary to traditional impact measures, the 3R cannot be
manipulated ad infinitum through journal self-citations. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB General results on transformations on information production processes (IPPs),
involving transformations of the h-index and related indices, are applied in
concrete, simple cases: doubling the production per source, doubling the number of
sources, doubling the number of sources but halving their production, halving the
number of sources but doubling their production (fusion of sources) and, finally,
special cases of general power law transformations. In each case we calculate
concrete transformation formulae for the h-index h (transformed into h*) and we
discuss when we have h* < h, h* = h or h* > h. These results are then extended to
some other h-type indices such as the g-index, the R-index and the weighted h-
index. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Journal weighted impact factor: A proposal
LA English
DT Article
DE journal impact factor; scientometrics; citation analysis
AB The impact factor of a journal reflects the frequency with which the journal's
articles are cited. It is the best available measure of journal quality. For
calculation of impact factor, we just count the number of citations, no matter
howprestigious the citing journal is. We think that impact factor as a measure of
journal quality, may be improved if in its calculation, we not only take into
account the number of citations, but also incorporate a factor reflecting the
prestige of the citing journals relative to the cited journal. In calculation of
this proposed "weighted impact factor," each citation has a coefficient (weight)
the value of which is 1 if the citing journal is as prestigious as the cited
journal; is > 1 if the citing journal is more prestigious than the cited journal;
and is < 1 if the citing journal has a lower standing than the cited journal. In
this way, journals receiving many citations from prestigious journals are
considered prestigious themselves and those cited by low-status journals seek
little credit. By considering both the number of citations and the prestige of the
citing journals, we expect the weighted impact factor be a better scientometrics
measure of journal quality. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This paper reviews developments in informetrics between 2000 and 2006. At the
beginning of the 21st century we witness considerable growth in webometrics,
mapping and visualization and open access. A new topic is comparison between
citation databases, as a result of the introduction of two new citation databases
Scopus and Google Scholar. There is renewed interest in indicators as a result of
the introduction of the h-index. Traditional topics like citation analysis and
informetric theory also continue to develop. The impact factor debate, especially
outside the informetric literature continues to thrive. Ranked lists (of journal,
highly cited papers or of educational institutions) are of great public interest.

TI All author cocitation analysis and first author cocitation analysis: A
comparative empirical investigation
LA English
DT Article
DE author cocitation analysis; all author ACA; first author ACA
ID SYSTEMS; SCIENCE
AB The majority of author cocitation analysis (ACA) have relied on the Institute
for Scientific Information (ISI) citation databases. ISI convention allows only the
retrieval of papers that cite works of which the author is first or sole author.
Non-primary authors (authors whose name appear in second or later position) will
not be counted when assembling a cocitation frequency matrix. Therefore, this has
been a methodological issue in ACA study. This paper empirically examines the
impact of the ISI convention on the results of ACA. Previous research has addressed
and shed light on some parts of methodological issues, but failed to address issues
such as to what extent the use of different approach has resulted in different
outcomes in terms of actual intellectual structure of a given academic discipline.
Using our data and cociation matrix generation systems, we compare the differences
in the process and outcomes of using different cocitation matrices. Our study
concludes that all author based ACA is better than first author based ACA to
capture all influential researchers in a field. It also identifies more research
subspecialties. Finally, all Author based ACA and first author based ACA produce
little differences in stress values of MDS outputs. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID CITATION ANALYSIS; INDICATORS; DATABASE; QUALITY; IMPACT; WEB
AB A bibliometric analysis was applied in this work to evaluate global scientific
production of geographic information system (GIS) papers from 1997 to 2006 in any
journal of all the subject categories of the Science Citation Index compiled by
Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), Philadelphia, USA. 'GIS' and
'geographic information system' were used as keywords to search parts of titles,
abstracts, or keywords. The published output analysis showed that GIS research
steadily increased over the past 10 years and the annual paper production in 2006
was about three times 1997s paper production. There are clear distinctions among
author keywords used in publications from the five most productive countries (USA,
UK, Canada, Germany and China) in GIS research. Bibliometric methods could
quantitatively characterize the development of global scientific production in a
specific research field. The analytical results eventually provide several key
findings. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The Maximum Entropy Principle (MEP) maximizes the entropy provided that the
effort remains constant. The Principle of Least Effort (PLE) minimizes the effort
provided that the entropy remains constant. The paper investigates the relation
between these two principles. In some kinds of effort functions, called admissible,
it is shown that these two principles are equivalent. The results are illustrated
by the size-frequency statistical distribution met in infometry in Information

AB When carrying out a research project, some materials may not be available in-
house. Thus, investigators resort to external providers for conducting their
research. To that end, the exchange may be formalised through material transfer
agreements. In this context, industry, government and academia have their own
specific expectations regarding compensation for the help they provide when
transferring the research material. This paper assesses whether these contracts
might have had an impact on visibility of researchers. Visibility is thereby
operationalised on the basis of a bibliometric approach. In the sample utilised,
researchers that availed themselves of these contracts were more visible compared
to those who did not use them, controlling for seniority and co-authorship.
Nonetheless, providers and receivers could not be differentiated in terms of
visibility but by research sector and co-authorship. Being a user of these
contracts might, to some extent, be the reflection of systematic differences in the
stratification of science based on visibility. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

ID NUMBER; SAMPLE; POPULATION
AB Egghe and Proot [Egghe, L., & Proot, G. (2007). The estimation of the number of
lost multi-copy documents: A new type of informetrics theory. Journal of
Informetrics] introduce a simple probabilistic model to estimate the number of lost
multi-copy documents based on the numbers of retrieved ones. We show that their
model in practice can essentially be described by the well-known Poisson
approximation to the binomial. This enables us to adopt a traditional maximum
likelihood estimation (MLE) approach which allows the construction of (approximate)
confidence intervals for the parameters of interest, thereby resolving an open
problem left by the authors. We further show that the general estimation problem is
a variant of a well-known unseen species problem. This work should be viewed as
supplementing that of Egghe and Proot [Egghe, L., & Proot, G. (2007). The
estimation of the number of lost multi-copy documents: A new type of informetrics
theory. Journal of Informetrics]. It turns out that their results are broadly in
line with those produced by this rather more robust statistical analysis. (C) 2007

TI Scoring research output using statistical quantile plotting

DT Article
DE quantile plots; standardizing; normal quantile plot; Pareto quantile
plot; extreme value index
ID IMPACT; INDEX
AB In this paper, we propose two methods for scoring scientific output based on
statistical quantile plotting. First, a resealing of journal impact factors for
scoring scientific output on a macro level is proposed. It is based on normal
quantile plotting which allows to transform impact data over several subject
categories to a standardized distribution. This can be used in comparing scientific
output of larger entities such as departments working in quite different areas of
research. Next, as an alternative to the Hirsch index [Hirsch, J.E. (2005). An
index to quantify an individuals scientific research output. Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 102(46), 16569-
16572], the extreme value index is proposed as an indicator for assessment of the
research performance of individual scientists. In case of Lotkaian-Zipf-Pareto
behaviour of citation counts of an individual, the extreme value index can be
interpreted as the slope in a Pareto-Zipf quantile plot. This index, in contrast to
the Hirsch index, is not influenced by the number of publications but stresses the
decay of the statistical tail of citation counts. It appears to be much less
sensitive to the science field than the Hirsch index. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All

AB The relationship of the h-index with other bibliometric indicators at the micro
level is analysed for Spanish CSIC scientists in Natural Resources, using
publications downloaded from the Web of Science (1994-2004). Different activity and
impact indicators were obtained to describe the research performance of scientists
in different dimensions, being the h-index located through factor analysis in a
quantitative dimension highly correlated with the absolute number of publications
and citations. The need to include the remaining dimensions in the analysis of
research performance of scientists and the risks of relying only on the h-index are
stressed. The hypothesis that the achievement of some highly visible but
intermediate-productive authors might be underestimated when compared with other
scientists by means of the h-index is tested. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Hirsch [Hirsch, J. E. (2005). An index to quantify an individual's scientific
research output. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United
States of America, 102(46), 16569-16572] has proposed the h index as a single-
number criterion to evaluate the scientific output of a researcher. We investigated
the convergent validity of decisions for awarding long-term fellowships to post-
doctoral researchers as practiced by the Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds (B.I.F.) by
using the h index. Our study examined 414 B.I.F. applicants (64 approved and 350
rejected) with a total of 1586 papers. The results of our study show that the
applicants' h indices correlate substantially with standard bibliometric
indicators. Even though the h indices of approved B.I.F. applicants on average
(arithmetic mean and median) are higher than those of rejected applicants (and with
this, fundamentally confirm the validity of the funding decisions), the
distributions of the h indices show in part overlaps that we categorized as type I
error (falsely drawn approval) or type II error (falsely drawn rejection).
Approximately, one-third of the decisions to award a fellowship to an applicant
show a type I error, and about one-third of the decisions not to award a fellowship
to an applicant show a type II error. Our analyses of possible reasons for these
errors show that the applicant's field of study but not personal ties between the
B.I.F. applicant and the B.I.F. can increase or decrease the risks for type I and
type II errors. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Taxonomy visualization in support of the semi-automatic validation and
optimization of organizational schemas
LA English
DT Article
DE patents; taxonomy; ontology; classification hierarchy; visualization
AB Never before in history has mankind produced and had access to so much data,
information, knowledge, and expertise as today. To organize, access, and manage
these valuable assets effectively, we use taxonomies, classification hierarchies,
ontologies, controlled vocabularies, and other approaches. We create directory
structures for our files. We use organizational hierarchies to structure our work
environment. However, the design and continuous update of these organizational
schemas with potentially thousands of class nodes organizing millions of entities
is challenging for any human being.
The taxonomy visualization and validation (TV) tool introduced in this paper
supports the semi-automatic validation and optimization of organizational schemas
such as file directories, classification hierarchies, taxonomies, or other
structures imposed on a data set for organization, access, and naming. By showing
the "goodness of fit" for a schema and the potentially millions of entities it
organizes, the TV tool eases the identification and reclassification of
misclassified information entities, the identification of classes that grow too
large, the evaluation of the size and homogeneity of existing classes, the
examination of the "well-formedness" of an organizational schema, and more. As a
demonstration, the TV tool is applied to display and examine the United States
Patent and Trademark Office patent classification, which organizes more than three
million patents into about 160,000 distinct patent classes. The paper concludes
with a discussion and an outlook to future work. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Narrative reviews of peer review research have concluded that there is
negligible evidence of gender bias in the awarding of grants based on peer review.
Here, we report the findings of a meta-analysis of 21 studies providing, to the
contrary, evidence of robust gender differences in grant award procedures. Even
though the estimates of the gender effect vary substantially from study to study,
the model estimation shows that all in all, among grant applicants men have
statistically significant greater odds of receiving grants than women by about 7%.

TI Do open access articles have greater citation impact? A critical review
of the literature
LA English
DT Review
DE open access; citation analysis; early view; quality bias
AB The last few years have seen the emergence of several open access options in
scholarly communication which can broadly be grouped into two areas referred to as
'gold' and 'green' open access (OA). In this article we review the literature
examining the relationship between OA status and citation counts of scholarly
articles. Early studies showed a correlation between the free online availability
or OA status of articles and higher citation counts, and implied causality without
due consideration of potential confounding factors. More recent investigations have
dissected the nature of the relationship between article CA status and citations.
Three non-exclusive postulates have been proposed to account for the observed
citation differences between OA and non-OA articles: an open access postulate, a
selection bias postulate, and an early view postulate. The most rigorous study to
date (in condensed matter physics) showed that, after controlling for the early
view postulate, the remaining difference in citation counts between OA and non-OA
articles is explained by the selection bias postulate. No evidence was found to
support the OA postulate per se; i.e. article OA status alone has little or no
effect on citations. Further studies using a similarly rigorous approach are
required to determine the generality of this finding. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All

(2) metrics can influence S&T development incentives; (3) incorrect selection and
implementation of metrics can have negative unintended consequences on the research
and research documentation generated and (4) before implementing metrics, an
organization should identify and evaluate the intended and unintended consequences
of the specific metrics' implementation, and identify the impact of these

TI General evolutionary theory of information production processes and
applications to the evolution of networks
LA English
DT Article
DE evolution; IPP; information production process; Lotka; Zipf; network
AB Evolution of information production processes (IPPs) can be described by a
general transformation function for the sources and for the items. It generalises
the Fellman-Jakobsson transformation which only works on the items.
In this paper the dual informetric theory of this double transformation, defined
by the rank-frequency function, is described by, e.g. determining the new size-
frequency function. The special case of power law transformations is studied
thereby showing that a Lotkaian system is transformed into another Lotkaian system,
described by a new Lotka exponent. We prove that the new exponent is smaller
(larger) than the original one if and only if the change in the sources is smaller
(larger) than that of the items.
Applications to the study of the evolution of networks are given, including
cases of deletion of nodes and/or links but also applications to other fields are
given. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI A rational indicator of scientific creativity
LA English
DT Article
DE citation analysis; citation network; knowledge flow; research merit;

ID SCIENCE CITATION INDEX; PHYSICS
AB A model is proposed for the creation and transmission of scientific knowledge,
based on the network of citations among research articles. The model allows to
assign to each article a non-negative value for its creativity, i.e. its creation
of new knowledge. If the entire publication network is truncated to the first
neighbors of an article (the n references that it makes and the m citations that it
receives), its creativity value becomes a simple function of n and m. After
splitting the creativity of each article among its authors, the cumulative
creativity of an author is then proposed as an indicator of her or his merit of
research. In contrast with other merit indicators, this creativity index yields
similar values for the top scientists in two very different areas (life sciences
and physics), thus offering good promise for interdisciplinary analyses. (c) 2007

TI Generating overview timelines for major events in an RSS corpus
LA English
DT Article
DE feature selection; clustering; overview timeline
AB Really simple syndication (RSS) is becoming a ubiquitous technology for
notifying users of new content in frequently updated web sites, such as blogs and
news portals. This paper describes a feature-based, local clustering approach for
generating over-view timelines for major events, such as the tsunami tragedy, from
a general-purpose corpus of RSS feeds. In order to identify significant events, we
automatically (1) selected a set of significant terms for each day; (2) built a set
of (term-co-term) pairs and (3) clustered the pairs in an attempt to group
contextually related terms. The clusters were assessed by 10 people, finding that
the average percentage apparently representing significant events was 68.6%. Using
these clusters, we generated overview timelines for three major events: the tsunami
tragedy, the US election and bird flu. The results indicate that our approach is
effective in identifying predominantly genuine events, but can only produce partial
timelines. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Lifting the crown-citation z-score
LA English
DT Article
DE citation; indicator; normalization; research assessment; z-score
ID SCIENCE; INDEX
AB Researchers worldwide are increasingly being assessed by the citation rates of
their papers. These rates have potential impact on academic promotions and funding
decisions. Currently there are several different ways that citation rates are being
calculated, with the state of the art indicator being the crown indicator. This
indicator has flaws and improvements could be considered. An item oriented field
normalized citation score average ((c) over bar (f)) is an incremental improvement
as it differs from the crown indicatorin so much as normalization takes place on
the level of individual publication (or item) rather than on aggregated levels, and
therefore assigns equal weight to each publication. The normalization on item level
also makes it possible to calculate the second suggested indicator: total field
normalized citation score (Sigma c(f)). A more radical improvement (or complement)
is suggested in the item oriented field normalized logarithm-based citation z-score
average ((c) over bar (fz[ln]) or citation z-score). This indicator assigns equal
weight to each included publication and takes the citation rate variability of
different fields into account as well as the skewed distribution of citations over
publications. Even though the citation z-score could be considered a considerable
improvement it should not be used as a sole indicator of research performance.
Instead it should be used as one of many indicators as input for informed peer
review. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

biosciences and environmental, computer and material sciences, we have found
extremely good fittings outperforming other rank-order models. Based in our
results, we propose a two-exponent Lotkaian Informetrics. Some extensions to other
areas of knowledge are discussed. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Comparing alternatives to the Web of Science for coverage of the social
sciences' literature
LA English
DT Article
DE RAE; Web of Science; Scopus; CSA Illumina Google Scholar research impact
ID GOOGLE-SCHOLAR
AB The Web of Science is no longer the only database which offers citation indexing
of the social sciences. Scopus, CSA Illumina and Google Scholar are new entrants in
this market. The holdings and citation records of these four databases were
assessed against two sets of data one drawn from the 2001 Research Assessment
Exercise and the other from the International bibliography of the Social Sciences.
Initially, CSA Illumina's cove-rage at journal title level appeared to be the most
comprehensive. But when recall and average citation count was tested at article
level and rankings extrapolated by submission frequency to individual journal
titles, Scopus was ranked first. When issues of functionality, the quality of
record processing and depth of coverage are taken into account, Scopus and Web of
Science have a significant advantage over the other two databases. From this
analysis, Scopus offers the best coverage from amongst these databases and could be
used as an alternative to the Web of Science as a tool to evaluate the research
impact in the social sciences. (c) 2007 Charles Oppenheim. Published by Elsevier

TI On the h-index, the size of the Hirsch core and Jin's A-index
LA English
DT Article
DE Hirsch h-index; Hirsch h-core; Jin A-index; stochastic model;
informetric process
AB Hirsch's h-index seeks to give a single number that in some sense summarizes an
author's research output and its impact. Essentially, the h-index seeks to identify
the most productive core of an author's output in terms of most received citations.
This most productive set we refer to as the Hirsch core, or h-core. Jin's A-index
relates to the average impact, as measured by the average number of citations, of
this "most productive" core. In this paper, we investigate both the total
productivity of the Hirsch core - what we term the size of the h-core - and the A-
index using a previously proposed stochastic model for the publication/citation
process, emphasising the importance of the dynamic, or time-dependent, nature of
these measures. We also look at the inter-relationships between these measures.
Numerical investigations suggest that the A-index is a linear function of time and
of the h-index, while the size of the Hirsch core has an approximate square-law
relationship with time, and hence also with the A-index and the h-index. (c) 2007

ID H-INDEX
AB We show that usually the influence on the Hirsch index of missing highly cited
articles is much smaller than the number of missing articles. This statement is
shown by a combinatorial argument. We further show, by using a continuous power law
model, that the influence of missing articles is largest when the total number of
publications is small, and non-existing when the number of publications is very
large. The same conclusion can be drawn for missing citations. Hence, the h-index
is resilient to missing articles and to missing citations. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

TI Hirsch's h-index: A stochastic model
LA English
DT Article
DE Hirsch h-index; stochastic model; informetric process
ID CITATION DISTRIBUTION; SCIENTISTS; RANKING
AB We propose a simple stochastic model for an author's production/citation process
in order to investigate the recently proposed h-index for measuring an author's
research output and its impact. The parametric model distinguishes between an
author's publication process and the subsequent citation processes of the published
papers. This allows us to investigate different scenarios such as varying the
production/publication rates and citation rates as well as the researcher's career
length. We are able to draw tentative results regarding the dependence of Hirsch's
h-index on each of these fundamental parameters. We conjecture that the h-index is,
according to this model, (approximately) linear in career length, log publication
rate and log citation rate, at least for moderate citation rates. (c) 2006 Elsevier

AB Citation analysis was traditionally based on data from the ISI Citation indexes.
Now with the appearance of Scopus, and with the free citation tool Google Scholar
methods and measures are need for comparing these tools. In this paper we propose a
set of measures for computing the similarity between rankings induced by ordering
the retrieved publications in decreasing order of the number of citations as
reported by the specific tools. The applicability of these measures is demonstrated
and the results show high similarities between the rankings of the ISI Web of
Science and Scopus and lower similarities between Google Scholar and the other
tools. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Measuring quality of similarity functions in approximate data matching
LA English
DT Article
DE approximate data matching; similarity functions; retrieval evaluation
AB This paper presents a method for assessing the quality of similarity functions.
The scenario taken into account is that of approximate data matching, in which it
is necessary to determine whether two data instances represent the same real world
object. Our method is based on the semi-automatic estimation of optimal threshold
values. We propose two methods for performing such estimation. The first method is
an algorithm based on a reward function, and the second is a statistical method.
Experiments were carried out to validate the techniques proposed. The results show
that both methods for threshold estimation produce similar results. The output of
such methods was used to design a grading function for similarity functions. This
grading function, called discernability, was used to compare a number of similarity
functions applied to an experimental data set. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB This paper investigates the mechanism of the Journal Impact Factor (JIF).
Although created as a journal selection tool the indicator is probably the central
quantitative indicator for measuring journal quality. The focus is journal self-
citations as the treatment of these in analyses and evaluations is highly disputed.
The role of self-citations (both self-citing rate and self-cited rate) is
investigated on a larger scale in this analysis in order to achieve statistical
reliable material that can further qualify that discussion. Some of the hypotheses
concerning journal self-citations are supported by the results and some are not.

TI Mapping the bid behavior of conference referees

ID CO-WORDS; NETWORKS
AB The peer-review process, in its present form, has been repeatedly criticized. Of
the many critiques ranging from publication delays to referee bias, this paper will
focus specifically on the issue of how submitted manuscripts are distributed to
qualified referees. Unqualified referees, without the proper knowledge of a
manuscript's domain, may reject a perfectly valid study or potentially more
damaging, unknowingly accept a faulty or fraudulent result. In this paper, referee
competence is analyzed with respect to referee bid data collected from the 2005
Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL). The analysis of the referee bid
behavior provides a validation of the intuition that referees are bidding on
conference submissions with regards to the subject domain of the submission.
Unfortunately, this relationship is not strong and therefore suggests that there
may potentially exists other factors beyond subject domain that may be influencing
referees to bid for particular submissions. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

AB Aim: The scientific norm of universalism prescribes that external reviewers
recommend the allocation of awards to young scientists solely on the basis of their
scientific achievement. Since the evaluation of grants utilizes scientists with
different personal attributes, it is natural to ask whether the norm of
universalism reflects the actual evaluation practice.
Subjects and methods: We investigated the influence of three attributes of
external reviewers on their ratings in the selection procedure followed by the
Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds (B.I.F.) for awarding long-term fellowships to doctoral
and post-doctoral researchers in biomedicine: (i) number of applications assessed
in the past for the B. I. F. (reviewers' evaluation experience), (ii) the
reviewers' country of residence and (iii) the reviewers' gender. To analyze the
reviewers' ratings (1: award; 2: maybe award; 3: no award) in an ordinal regression
model (ORM) the following were considered in addition to the three attributes: (i)
the scientific achievements of the fellowship applicants, (ii) interaction effects
between reviewers' and applicants' attributes and (iii) judgmental tendencies of
reviewers.
Results: The results of the model estimations show no significant effect of the
reviewers' attributes on the evaluation of B. I. F. fellowship applications. The
ratings of the external reviewers are mainly determined by the applicants'
scientific achievement prior to application.
Conclusions: The results suggest that the external reviewers of the B. I. F.
indeed achieved the foundation's goal of recommending applicants with higher
scientific achievement for fellowships and of recommending those with lower
scientific achievement for rejection. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

adjusting categories was developed. This parameter-free method, which was called
method of characteristic scores and scales, is independent of any particular
bibliometric law. The objective of the present study is twofold. In the theoretical
part, the analysis of its properties for the general form of the Pareto
distribution will be extended and deepened; in the empirical part the citation
history of individual scientific disciplines will be studied. The chosen citation
window of 21 years makes it possible to analyse dynamic aspects of the method, and
proves sufficiently large to also obtain stable patterns for each of the
disciplines. The theoretical findings are supplemented by regularities derived from
the long-term observations. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI The estimation of the number of lost multi-copy documents: A new type of
informetrics theory
LA English
DT Article
DE multi-copy document; book historical law
AB A probabilistic model is presented to estimate the number of lost multi-copy
documents, based on retrieved ones. For this, we only need the number of retrieved
documents of which we have one copy and the number of retrieved documents of which
we have two copies. If we also have the number of retrieved documents of which we
have three copies then we are also able to estimate the number of copies of the
documents that ever existed (assumed that this number is fixed over all documents).
Simulations prove the stability of the model. The model is applied to the
estimation of the number of lost printed programmes of Jesuit theatre plays in the
Provincia Flandro-Belgica before 1773. This Jesuit province was an administrative
entity of the order, which was territorially slightly larger in extent than present
day Flanders, the northern, Dutch-speaking part of Belgium. It is noted that the
functional model P-j for the fraction of retrieved documents with j copies is a
size-frequency function satisfying (Pj+1/P-j)/(P-j/Pj-1)<1 for all j. It is further
noted that the "classical" size-frequency functions are different: Lotka's function
satisfies the opposite inequality and the decreasing exponential one gives always 1
for the above ratio, hence showing that we are in a new type of informetrics
theory. We also provide a mathematical rationale for the "book historical law"
stating that the probability to lose a copy of a multi-copy document (i.e. an
edition) is an increasing function of the size of the edition. The paper closes
with some open problems and a description of other potential applications of this
probabilistic model. (c) 2007 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

TI Measuring industrial knowledge stocks with patents and papers
LA English

DE industrial knowledge stock; patents; papers; the USPTO web site; the SCI
database
ID PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH; SCIENCE; FLOWS
AB Under the National Innovation System (NIS) framework, knowledge stock has been
recognized as a key factor for enhancing national innovative capabilities. However,
despite the importance of patents and papers for measuring knowledge, previous
research has not fully utilized patent and paper databases, and has instead relied
on research and development (R&D) data. Therefore, in this research, I introduce a
way to utilize both types of useful data when measuring industrial knowledge
stocks. As primary data sources, the United States Patent and Trademark Office
(USPTO) Web site for patents and the science citation index (SCI) for papers are
used. In the case of Korea, the amount of knowledge stock proxied by patents and
papers is different from that proxied by R&D, which indicates in turn that using a
single indicator such as R&D may be misleading. Although the result may vary
depending on the selected nation, the proposed method will be useful for gauging
knowledge stocks in a more complementary way. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

evidence
LA English
DT Article
DE time statistics; information networks; zipf law; activity pattern
ID POWER-LAW; DISTRIBUTIONS; NETWORK
AB We focus on the statistics of word occurrences and of the waiting times between
such occurrences in Blogs. Due to the heterogeneity of words' frequencies, the
empirical analysis is performed by studying classes of "frequently-equivalent"
words, i.e. by grouping words depending on their frequencies. Two limiting cases
are considered: the dilute limit, i.e. for those words that are used less than once
a day, and the dense limit for frequent words. In both cases, extreme events occur
more frequently than expected from the Poisson hypothesis. These deviations from
Poisson statistics reveal non-trivial time correlations between events that are
associated with bursts of activities. The distribution of waiting times is shown to
behave like a stretched exponential and to have the same shape for different sets
of words sharing a common frequency, thereby revealing universal features. (c) 2007

DE bibliographic coupling; science mapping; cluster analysis
ID SCIENTIFIC LITERATURES; SCIENCE; INFORMATION; COCITATION
AB Based on previous findings and theoretical considerations, it was suggested that
bibliographic coupling could be combined with a cluster method to provide a method
for science mapping, complementary to the prevailing co-citation cluster analytical
method. The complete link cluster method was on theoretical grounds assumed to
provide a suitable cluster method for this purpose. The objective of the study was
to evaluate the proposed method's capability to identify coherent research themes.
Applying a large multidisciplinary test bed comprising more than 600,000 articles
and 17 million references, the proposed method was tested in accordance with two
lines of mapping. In the first line of mapping, all significant (strong) links
connecting 'core documents' (strongly and frequently coupled documents) in clusters
with any other core document was mapped. This resulted in a depiction of all
significant artificially broken links between core documents in a cluster and core
documents extrinsic to that cluster. The second line of mapping involved the
application of links between clusters only. They were used to successively merge
clusters on two subsequent levels of fusion, where the first generation of clusters
were considered objects for a second clustering, and the second generation of
clusters gave rise to a final cluster fusion. Changes of cluster composition on the
three levels were evaluated with regard to several variables. Findings showed that
the proposed method could provide with valid depictions of current research, though
some severe restrictions would adhere to its application. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

AB The original Lotka's Law refers to single scientist distribution, i.e. the
frequency of authors A(i) with i publications per author is a function of i: A(i)
=f(i). However, with increasing collaboration in science and in technology the
study of the frequency of pairs or triples of co-authors is highly relevant.
Starting with pair distribution well-ordered collaboration structures of co-author
pairs will be presented, i.e. the frequency of co-author pairs N-ij between authors
with i publications per author and authors with j publications per author is a
function of i and j: N-ij =f(i,j) using the normal count procedure for counting i
or j. We have assumed that the distribution of co-author pairs' frequencies can be
considered to be reflection of a social Gestalt and therefore can be described by
the corresponding mathematical function based on well-known general characteristics
of structures in interpersonal relations in social networks. We have shown that
this model of social Gestalts can better explain the distribution of co-author
pairs than by a simple bivariate function in analogy to Lotka's Law. This model is
based on both the Gestalt theory and the old Chinese Yin/Yang theory. (c) 2007

the field level

AB The method of bibliographic coupling in combination with the complete link
cluster method was applied for mapping of the field of organic chemistry with the
purpose of testing the applicability of a proposed mapping method on the field
level. The method put forward aimed at the generation of cognitive cores of
documents, so-called 'bibliographic cliques' in the network of bibliographically
coupled research articles. The defining feature of these cliques is that they can
be considered complete graphs where each bibliographic coupling link ties an
unordered pair of documents. In this way, it was presumed that coherent groups of
documents in the research front would be found and that these groups would be
intellectually coherent as well. Statistical analysis and subject specialist
evaluations confirmed these presumptions. The study also elaborates on the choice
of observation period and the application of thresholds in relation to the size of
document populations. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
