چکیده
Indexes in scientometrics are based on citations. However, in contrast to the journal impact factor, which gives only the ranking of the scientific journals, ordered by impact factor, indexes in scientometrics are suitable for ranking of scientists, scientific journals and countries. In this paper the h-index, h5-index, the World ranking the top of 25 Highly Cited Researchers (h > 100) and the ranking of 25 scientists in Hungarian Institutions according to their Google Scholar Citations public profiles are considered. These indexes (h5-index) are applied for making of the list of top 20 publications (journals and proceedings) in the field of Robotics. The World ranking is done of the best 50 countries according to h-index in year 2014. Data are obtained from the portal Scimago.

متن کاملScientific impact evaluation and the effect of self-citations: Mitigating the bias by discounting the h-index
In this paper, we propose the V-index (or, Virtuosity index) as a novel metric to assess the scientific virtuosity of academics. This index can be applied to researchers and journals as well. In particular, we show that the V-index fills the gap of h-index and similar metrics in considering the self-citations of authors or journals. The paper provides with three real-world examples: in the firs...
