The 9th edition of Research.com ranking of the best scholars in the
discipline of Electronics and Electrical Engineering was created using data
consolidated from a wide range of data sources including OpenAlex and
CrossRef. The bibliometric data for devising the citation-based metrics were
gathered on 21-12-2022. Position in the ranking is based on a
researcher’s D-index (Discipline H-index), which
takes into account only publications and citation
metrics for an examined discipline.

The range of our Electronics and Electrical Engineering research
Research.com’s best scholars ranking is a credible
list of leading researchers from the discipline of
Electronics and Electrical Engineering, created using a thorough
study of 166,880 scholars identified
from a variety of bibliometric data sources. For the discipline of
Electronics and Electrical Engineering, over 10355 scholars were
investigated.
What is D-index acceptance threshold for Electronics and Electrical Engineering
The D-index threshold for including a scholar to be
considered is established at 30 if
the majority of of their publications are in the discipline of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. The
approval requirements for scientists to be
considered into the ranking of top researchers are based on the D-index, ratio
of the publications made within the selected field of study
as well as the awards and achievements of the scholars. The
D-index threshold for listing best scientists is
set as an increment of 10 depending on the total number of scholars
assessed for each area od study whilst
making sure that the top 1% of best scholars are
added into the ranking. We expect a proximity of
30% or less between a scientist’s general H-index and their D-index.
Additional verification practices
As our leading aim is to make sure that only
genuine scholars are listed in
Research.com ranking we realize that metrics are never
meant to be a full tool to assess the
work of scientists. Because of that
we manually verify every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
broad range of reliable sources. While it’s not a
element contributing to a scholar’s position in
Research.com ranking, the amount of papers published in
well-known journals and conference proceedings should be a
valuable secondary indication of their contribution to research in a
selected area of science. Position in the ranking is
based on every scientist’s D-index
with the help of data collected from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most trustworthy and well-established bibliometric
databases of this type available to the research community. A
detailed overview of our research procedures
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our goal
Our mission is to motivate scholars,
companies and politicians
around the world to explore where top experts are heading
and to offer a way for the whole scientific community to
discover who the leading experts in specific
areas of study, in various countries, or even within research
institutions are.
