Overview

Top Research Topics at International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications?

The journal mainly tackles studies in Combinatorics, Discrete mathematics, Algorithm, Computational geometry and Set (abstract data type). International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications is mostly focused on Combinatorics, specifically Time complexity. Upper and lower bounds, Approximation algorithm, Data structure and Regular polygon are some topics wherein Discrete mathematics research discussed in International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications have an impact.

Algorithm study tackled is connected to the field of Mathematical optimization. In International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications, Column (database) and Computational science are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Computational geometry research. Some problems in Plane (geometry) that were presented in International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications overlapped with concepts under Disjoint sets, Line segment and Line (geometry).

Simple polygon research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Polygon covering and Star-shaped polygon. The study of Monotone polygon serves as the foundation of the Polygon covering research discussed in it.

Research areas of the most cited articles at International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications:

The most cited publications mostly deal with topics like Combinatorics, Discrete mathematics, Algorithm, Computational geometry and Set (abstract data type). The published articles hold forums on Combinatorics that merge themes from other disciplines such as Upper and lower bounds, Convex hull and Simple polygon. The most cited publications focus on Discrete mathematics but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Point (geometry), Plane (geometry) and Regular polygon.

Papers citation over time

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 International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Joseph O'Rourke (39 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Danny Z. Chen (23 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Der-Tsai Lee (18 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Olivier Devillers (17 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Prosenjit Bose (15 papers) absent at the last edition.

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 International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Smith College (39 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Utrecht University (30 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Carleton University (29 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (22 papers) absent at the last edition,

Publication chance based on affiliation

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, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 50.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. 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 50.00% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

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.

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 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:

  • 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.
