Statistical analysis of the Hirsch Index
The Hirsch index (commonly referred to as h-index) is a bibliometric indicator which is widely recognized as effective for measuring the scientific production of a scholar since it summarizes size and impact of the research output. In a formal setting, the h-index is actually an empirical functional of the distribution of the citation counts received by the scholar. Under this approach, the asy...
متن کاملEmpirical Statistical Analysis of the Generalized Hirsch Index
In this paper, we will discuss how to use Maple programming to empirically investigate the asymptotic normality of the generalized Hirsch citation index (alias size of Durfeee rectangle) with respect to the uniform distribution on the sample space of integer partitions of n. All the results of this article were obtained using Maple programs, and is available at: http://math.rutgers.edu/ hbl15/e...
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...
متن کاملThe predictability of the Hirsch index evolution
The h-index can be used as a predictor of itself. However, the evolution of the h-index with time is shown in the present investigation to be dominated for several years by citations to previous publications rather than by new scientific achievements. This inert behaviour of the h-index raises questions, whether the h-index can be used profitably in academic appointment processes or for the all...
