Consistent bibliometric rankings of authors and of journals
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rankings of journals and rankings of scientists are usually discussed separately. We argue that a consistent approach to both rankings is desirable because both the quality of a journal and the quality of a scientist depend on the papers it/he publishes. We present a pair of consistent rankings (impact factor for the journals and total number of citations for the authors) and we provide an axiomatic characterization thereof.

متن کاملScore-based bibliometric rankings of authors
Scoring rules form a family of bibliometric rankings of authors such that authors are ranked according to the sum over all their publications of some partial scores. Many of these rankings are widely used (e.g., number of publications, weighted or not by the impact factor, by the number of authors or by the number of citations,). We present an axiomatic analysis of the family of all scoring rul...
