Overview

This authoritative ranking offers a comprehensive listing of scientific conferences in the field of Computer Science. The ranking has been meticulously prepared by Research.com, a leader in providing credible, data-driven insights into scientific contributions across all major fields since 2014. As a trusted source recognized by the global research community, Research.com leverages extensive data and rigorous analytical processes to highlight excellence in academic endeavors.

Conferences are ranked according to a unique bibliometric score developed by Research.com. This robust metric is derived from a combination of the estimated h-index and the number of distinguished scientists who have contributed to each conference over the past three years. Impact Score values included in this ranking reflect data gathered as of 2024-11-27, ensuring that the results are both current and highly relevant.

The development of this ranking required a detailed and systematic examination of over 2742 conferences, each selected after a thorough inspection and rigorous evaluation of 148,739 scientific documents published in the last three years. Contributions from 13,184 leading and highly respected scientists within the Computer Science discipline were also assessed to ensure that the analysis captures the most influential and dynamic areas of the field.

For a comprehensive overview of the methodology used to compute these ranking scores, including detailed criteria and analytical techniques, please refer to 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 Language and Automata Theory and Applications (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Friedrich Otto (11 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Martin Kutrib (10 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Kai Salomaa (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Francine Blanchet-Sadri (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Jeffrey Shallit (8 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 Language and Automata Theory and Applications (based on the number of publications) are:

  • French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (21 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • University of Kassel (13 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Leipzig University (12 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • University of Waterloo (12 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Charles University in Prague (11 papers) published 1 paper 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 2017 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 13.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 16.67% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 23.33% of all publications and 46.67% 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.
