چکیده

This paper addresses the problem of finding rising stars in academic social networks. Rising stars are the authors which have low research profile in the beginning of their career but may become prominent contributors in the future. An effort for finding rising stars named PubRank is proposed, which considers mutual influence and static ranking of conferences or journals. In this work an improvement of PubRank is proposed by considering authors’ contribution based mutual influence and dynamic publication venue scores. Experimental results show that proposed enhancements are useful and better rising stars are found by our proposed methods in terms of average citations based performance evaluation. Effect of parameter alpha and damping factor is also studied in detail.
