Overview

This comprehensive ranking presents a curated list of leading scientific conferences within the field of Engineering and Technology. Developed by Research.com—one of the foremost resources for science research across all major disciplines and a trusted provider of robust scientific data since 2014—this ranking offers authoritative insights into the most influential gatherings in the discipline.

The conference positions are determined based on a unique bibliometric score, meticulously crafted by Research.com. This score is computed using the estimated h-index, along with the number of distinguished scientists who have participated in each conference over the past three consecutive years. Through this approach, the ranking provides a nuanced and rigorous measure of each conference's impact and prestige. The Impact Score values featured in this listing are current as of 2024-11-27.

The development of these rankings drew from an extensive review process, incorporating thorough examination and assessment of more than 2,262 conferences. These were selected after an in-depth evaluation of over 26,934 scientific documents, authored within the last three years by 9,385 of the field’s most prominent and respected scientists. This rigorous methodology highlights the commitment to accuracy, depth, and the highest standards of academic credibility in ranking the scientific conferences represented.

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each conference is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

The top authors publishing at International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (based on the number of publications) are:

  • David J. Reinkensmeyer (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Robert Riener (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • James L. Patton (8 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Hermano Igo Krebs (7 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Paolo Dario (7 papers) absent at the last edition.

The overall trend for top authors publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top authors.

Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered

The top affiliations publishing at International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Northwestern University (21 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago (14 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • ETH Zurich (14 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (13 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Imperial College London (12 papers) absent at the last edition.

The overall trend for top affiliations publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top affiliations.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions at the conference edition to all articles published within that conference. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the conference.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2019 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 0.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 100.00% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of conferences they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same conference from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the conference in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing at a conference. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a conference, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
