The impact factor of scientific reviews, calculated by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), is increasingly used to evaluate the performance of scientists and programmes. Bibliometric indicators, originally designed for other purposes than individual evaluation, are very useful tools provided their interpretation is not extrapolated beyond their limits of validity. Here we present a ...

Bibliometric techniques are not yet widely used to enhance retrieval processes in digital libraries, although they offer value-added effects for users. In this workshop we will explore how statistical modelling of scholarship, such as Bradfordizing or network analysis of coauthorship network, can improve retrieval services for specific communities, as well as for large, cross-domain collections...

Bibliometric analysis has a long tradition in the context of scientific communication (Hood and Wilson 2001). In current discussions related to the impact of research results one can observe a more economically driven perception of bibliometric and scientometric indicators. Therefore the statistical methods and the conceptual framework involved must be understood and interpreted adequately. Thi...

Database Tomography (DT) is a textual database analysis system consisting of two major components: 1) algorithms for extracting multi-word phrase frequencies and phrase proximities (physical closeness of the multi-word technical phrases) from any type of large textual database, to augment 2) interpretative capabilities of the expert human analyst. DT was used to derive technical intelligence fr...

In this study, a bibliometric analysis of the studies evaluated with DEMATEL (Decision Making Experiment and Evaluation Laboratory Method), one MCDM methods in Web Science, was performed according to various performance indicators. The total number publications examined is 1963 documents. When are terms countries, it seen that China leader (553 documents; 28.17%). most cooperative country China...

BACKGROUND The quantitative study of the publication output (bibliometrics) deeply influences how scientific work is perceived (bibliometric visibility). Recently, new bibliometric indices and databases have been established, which may change the visibility of disciplines, institutions and individuals. This study examines the effects of the new indices on the visibility of Medical Informatics. ...

<b>Aim: </b>Amebiasis is a disease caused by protozoon <i>Entamoeba histolytica</i>, that results in amoebic dysentery. While intestinal parasites are the third leading cause of death, especially developing countries, it has been global concern. Bibliometric methods have used parasitology discipline for more than 30 years, however there not any bibliometric study on ameb...

Abstract The purpose of this article is to indicate, based on publications in the field ‘dysfunctional customer behaviour’, items most often cited and essential for researchers who cite them, as well introduce topics their relationships that represent conceptual space behaviour’. indicated objective will be realised basis selected bibliometric analyses. A set 74 resulting from searches two data...
