The h - index of a conglomerate Ronald Rousseau

چکیده
Conglomerates are generalized frameworks for informetric research. In this article, the h-index of a conglomerate is defined and it is shown how this construction generalizes the standard definition of the h-index. It is further shown how non-trivial constructions, such as Prathap’s h-indices, fit well into a conglomerate framework. An example illustrates the use of the conglomerate framework.

A relation between h-index and impact factor in the power-law model
Theh-index (Hirsch, 2005) and the impact factor (Garfield, 2006) are undoubtedly the best-known scientometric indicators. It has been shown in previous articles that the idea of calculating an impact factor or an h-index can be applied to many source-item relations and in many timeframes (Egghe, in press; Egghe & Rousseau, 2006; Frandsen & Rousseau, 2005; Liang & Rousseau, in press; Rousseau, G...

متن کاملDefinitions of time series in citation analysis with special attention to the h-index
The structure of different types of time series in citation analysis is revealed, using an adapted form of the Frandsen–Rousseau notation. Special cases where this approach can be used include time series of impact factors and time series of h-indices, or h-type indices. This leads to a tool describing dynamic aspects of citation analysis. Time series of h-indices are calculated in some specifi...
متن کاملAn h-index weighted by citation impact
An h-type index is proposed which depends on the obtained citations of articles belonging to the h-core. This weighted h-index, denoted as hw, is presented in a continuous setting and in a discrete one. It is shown that in a continuous setting the new index enjoys many good properties. In the discrete setting some small deviations from the ideal may occur. 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

We derive the values of the ratio between the e-area and the h-area and the average number of excess citations to papers in the h-core in a shifted Zipf model and in a decreasing exponential citation model.
