The 9th edition of Research.com ranking of the best scientists in the
discipline of Electronics and Electrical Engineering is based on data
consolidated from various data sources including OpenAlex and
CrossRef. The bibliometric data for evaluating the citation-based metrics were
collected on 21-12-2022. Position in the ranking is based on a
scholar’s D-index (Discipline H-index), which
only includes publications and citation
values for an examined discipline.

The scope of our Electronics and Electrical Engineering research
Our best scientists ranking is a reliable
list of leading scientists from the field of
Electronics and Electrical Engineering, created using a thorough
examination of 166,880 researchers determined
from various bibliometric data sources. For the discipline of
Electronics and Electrical Engineering, as many as 10355 scholars were
investigated.
What is D-index approval threshold for Electronics and Electrical Engineering
The D-index threshold for accepting a scholar to be
considered is set to 30 if
most of their publications are in the discipline of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. The
inclusion criteria for scientists to be
considered into the ranking of top scholars are based on the D-index, ratio
of the publications made within the specific area
plus the awards and achievements of the scholars. The
D-index threshold for considering top scientists is
set as an increment of 10 depending on the total number of researchers
estimated for each area od study whilst
making sure that the top 1% of leading researchers are
incorporated into the list. There should be a proximity of
30% or less between a researcher’s general H-index and their D-index.
Extra verification methods
Because our main goal is to guarantee that only
actual researchers are mentioned in
our ranking we are aware that raw data are never
meant to be a complete tool to quantify the
output of scholars. For that reason
we manually check every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
wide range of trustworthy sources. Although it’s not a
factor contributing to a researcher’s position in
Research.com ranking, the quantity of documents published in
major journals and conference proceedings should constitute a
credible secondary implication of their contribution to research in a
specific area of science. Position in the ranking is
based on each scholar’s D-index
according to metrics collected from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most prominent and well-established bibliometric
databases of this type open to the scientific community. A
thorough overview of our research process
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our agenda
Our goal is to inspire scholars,
businessmen and politicians
worldwide to investigate where prominent experts are heading
and to give an opportunity for the whole research community to
discover who the leading experts in specific
areas of study, in different countries, or even within research
institutions are.
