Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics primarily tackles Citation, Bibliometrics, Data science, Scientometrics and Public relations. Topics in Citation explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Social science and Regional science. Bibliometrics research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Context (language use), Metadata, Citation analysis, Information retrieval and Altmetrics.
Attendees of the journal participated in discussions that delve into both Context (language use) and Diplomacy. The journal facilitates discussions on Information retrieval that incorporate concepts from other fields like Field (computer science) and Identification (information). Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics aims to form a more comprehensive understanding of the field by integrating disciplines like Altmetrics and Scholarly communication.
Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics connects the study in Data science with the closely related area of Interpretation (philosophy). The journal features Scientometrics research that overlaps with concepts in Information visualization. Aside from Public relations, it also covered works in the field of Order (exchange).
The most cited papers generally zeroe in on subjects such as Citation, Bibliometrics, World Wide Web, Scientometrics and Information retrieval. While Bibliometrics is the focus of the published papers, it also provides insights into the studies of Data science and Altmetrics. The studies on Scientometrics discussed at the published articles can also contribute to research in the domains of Adaptation (computer science) and Knowledge management.
The main research concerns discussed in Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics are Public relations, Diplomacy, Latin Americans, Data science and Information retrieval. Economic growth, Context (language use), Sociology of scientific knowledge and Public administration are some topics wherein Latin Americans research discussed in the journal have an impact. In the journal, Replication (computing) and Bibliometrics are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Data science research.
Some problems in Bibliometrics that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Scientometrics, Interpretation (philosophy) and Citation. The Citation research presented in it explores the relationship between Field (geography) and the closely related topic of Relative term. The Information retrieval works featured in it incorporate elements from Classifier (UML), Metadata and Identification (information).
A key indicator for each journal 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 in Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
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, 14.08% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 18.03% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.20% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 27.87% of all publications and 45.90% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal 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 journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
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.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, 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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
