Overview

This ranking presents a comprehensive list of scientific conferences in the field of Engineering and Technology, meticulously curated by Research.com—one of the leading platforms for science research across all major disciplines. Since 2014, Research.com has been dedicated to providing reliable and authoritative data on scientific contributions, continually supporting the academic community with trusted and up-to-date information.

The positioning of conferences within this ranking is determined through a unique bibliometric score developed exclusively by Research.com. This rigorous scoring system integrates the estimated h-index alongside the number of leading scientists affiliated with each conference over the preceding three years. The current ranking includes Impact Score values that were collected on 2024-11-27, ensuring the presented data is both current and highly relevant.

The ranking process has involved an extensive and systematic examination of over 2,262 conferences, each selected after a detailed inspection and robust analysis. This evaluation encompassed the review of more than 26,934 scientific documents, all published within the last three years by a cohort of 9,385 respected and influential scientists in the field of Engineering and Technology. This exhaustive approach underscores the depth and sophistication of analysis undertaken by seasoned experts, with the aim of delivering an accurate and meaningful representation of conference impact within the discipline.

For those interested in the comprehensive methodology and specific scoring details employed in the compilation of these rankings, further information is available on our Methodology Page.

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 IEEE Wireless Power Transfer Conference (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Naoki Shinohara (31 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Joungho Kim (24 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Seungyoung Ahn (23 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • Nuno Borges Carvalho (22 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Hongseok Kim (18 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 IEEE Wireless Power Transfer Conference (based on the number of publications) are:

  • KAIST (60 papers) published 6 papers at the last edition, 4 less than at the previous edition,
  • Kyoto University (39 papers) published 3 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • University of Tokyo (23 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Imperial College London (18 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Soongsil University (17 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 2021 edition, 5.77% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 24.49% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 10.20% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 12.24% of all publications and 53.06% 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.
