Overview

Top Research Topics at Journal of The Society for Information Display?

Journal of The Society for Information Display was organized to reinforce research efforts on Optics, Optoelectronics, Liquid-crystal display, Artificial intelligence and Computer vision. Liquid crystal, Luminance, Viewing angle, Pixel and Contrast ratio are some of the study areas of Optics discussed. The work tackled in it goes beyond the discipline of Liquid crystal as it also encompasses Polymer.

The journal explores issues in Optoelectronics which can be linked to other research areas like Layer (electronics), OLED, Thin-film transistor, Transistor and Electrical engineering. It holds forums on OLED that merges themes from other disciplines such as Diode and AMOLED. The majority of Thin-film transistor studies presented zero in on Active matrix.

More specifically, the research on Liquid-crystal display in it is related to Backlight. The Artificial intelligence study tackling the subject of Image quality is the focus of it. Journal of The Society for Information Display focuses on Computer vision as well as the interrelated topic of Computer graphics (images).

  • Optics (33.10%)

While the most cited publications focused on Optoelectronics, they were also able to explore topics like Flexible display, Thin-film transistor, AMOLED, OLED and Transistor. The Computer vision research presented in the most cited papers focuses mostly on Computer graphics (images) and, on occasion, topics in Autostereoscopy.

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

  • Optics
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Composite material

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Optoelectronics, Optics, Artificial intelligence, Computer vision and OLED are the subjects of interest in Journal of The Society for Information Display. Some problems in Optoelectronics that were presented in Journal of The Society for Information Display overlapped with concepts under Active matrix, AMOLED and Thin-film transistor. Many of the studies tackled connect Optics with a similar field of study like Integral imaging.

The studies on Integral imaging discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Dual (category theory), Point light source, Viewing angle, Stereo display and Rendering (computer graphics). The research on OLED discussed in the journal draws on the closely related field of Compensation (engineering). The featured Liquid-crystal display research zeroes in on concepts in Backlight but also tackles themes under In plane.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Technologies for the Crystal LED display system (4 citations)
  • Monolithic full‐color microdisplay using patterned quantum dot photoresist on dual‐wavelength LED epilayers (4 citations)
  • Dimensioning a full color LED microdisplay for augmented reality headset in a very bright environment (4 citations)

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, 10.64% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 14.29% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 11.90% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 19.05% of all publications and 54.76% 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.
