An informetric model for the success-index
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 ach...
متن کاملAn axiomatic characterization of the Hirsch-index
The Hirsch-index is a well-known index for measuring and comparing the output of scientific researchers. The main contribution of this article is an axiomatic characterization of the Hirsch-index in terms of three natural axioms. Furthermore, two other scientific impact indices (called the w-index and the maximum-index) are defined and characterized in terms of similar axioms. © 2008 Elsevier B...
متن کاملSelf-citation corrections for the Hirsch index
I propose to sharpen the index h, proposed by Hirsch as a useful index to characterize the scientific output of a researcher, by excluding the self-citations. Performing a self-experiment and also discussing in detail two anonymous data sets, it is shown that self-citations can significantly reduce the h index in contrast to Hirsch’s expectations. This result is confirmed by an analysis of 13 f...
متن کاملMonotonicity and the Hirsch index
The Hirsch index is a number that synthesizes a researcher’s output. It is the maximum number h such that the researcher has h papers with at least h citations each. Woeginger [Woeginger, G. J.

متن کاملCategorizing Hirsch Index Variants
Utilizing the Hirsch index h and some of its variants for an exploratory factor analysis we discuss whether one of the most important Hirsch-type indices, namely the g-index comprises information about not only the size of the productive core but also the impact of the papers in the core. We also study the effect of logarithmic and square-root transformation of the data utilized in the factor a...
