Overview

Top Research Topics at Journal of the Operations Research Society of China?

Mathematical optimization, Combinatorics, Applied mathematics, Algorithm and Convergence (routing) are among the topics commonly tackled in the journal. Mathematical optimization research is the primary subject tackled in Journal of the Operations Research Society of China with a focus on Optimization problem. It facilitates discussions on Combinatorics that incorporate concepts from other fields like Discrete mathematics, Upper and lower bounds and Norm (mathematics).

The Applied mathematics research dealing mostly with Variational inequality is the focus of it. The works on Algorithm deal in particular with Interior point method. Interior point method and Polynomial complexity are closely related fields of research discussed in Journal of the Operations Research Society of China.

The journal connects the study in Convergence (routing) with the closely related area of Class (set theory). Journal of the Operations Research Society of China features Convex optimization research that overlaps with concepts in Rate of convergence. The study on Rate of convergence presented in Journal of the Operations Research Society of China intersects with subjects under the field of Convex function.

Research areas of the most cited articles at Journal of the Operations Research Society of China:

The published papers primarily focus on research topics in Mathematical optimization, Convex optimization, Constraint (information theory), Rate of convergence and Convex function. Issues in Mathematical optimization were discussed in the most cited papers, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Perspective (graphical) and Unconstrained optimization. In addition to Convex optimization research, the journal publications aim to explore topics under Algorithm, Differential operator and Matrix (mathematics).

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Mathematical optimization
  • Statistics
  • Artificial intelligence

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Mathematical optimization, Combinatorics, Applied mathematics, Function (mathematics) and Optimization problem are the subjects of interest in the journal. While the journal focused on Mathematical optimization, it was also able to explore topics like Stackelberg competition and Job shop scheduling. The study of Matching (graph theory) and how it intertwines with concepts under Convex polytope, Extreme point, Polytope and Spectral radius were explored in the presented Combinatorics research.

The journal focuses on Applied mathematics but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Descent (mathematics), Convergence (routing), Solution set, Class (set theory) and Conjugate gradient method. The overlapping concepts between Vertex (graph theory) and Degree (graph theory), Connectivity, Steiner forest and Submodular set function are the key highlights of Function (mathematics) study. Optimization problem research featured in Journal of the Operations Research Society of China incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Quadratic equation, Pareto principle, Quadratic form and Nonlinear system.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Two-Stage Stochastic Variational Inequalities: Theory, Algorithms and Applications (7 citations)
  • COVID-19 Pandemic with Human Mobility Across Countries (6 citations)
  • Bi-level Programming for Stackelberg Game with Intuitionistic Fuzzy Number: a Ranking Approach (5 citations)

Papers citation over time

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 Journal of the Operations Research Society of China (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Shanghai University (35 papers) published 4 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • Chinese Academy of Sciences (29 papers) published 5 papers at the last edition, 2 more than at the previous edition,
  • Beijing University of Technology (13 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Zhengzhou University (12 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, 4.23% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 22.06% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 7.35% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 23.53% of all publications and 47.06% 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.
