Analyzing research performance of individuals, institutions, countries

and journals. Types of analysis include:

• Identifying the top researchers or institutions in a specific field or

discipline

• Determining strong areas of research being produced at specific

universities or institutions

Identifying significant trends and emerging areas of research

Determining who is publishing the “hottest” papers in a field

Highly Cited Papers are papers with more citations over the last 10 years in 22 scientific fields.

Rankings are based on meeting a threshold of top 1% by field and year based on total citations received.

21

Hot Papers

Hot Papers published in the past 2 years and received citations soon after publishing, compare to other papers of same field and age.

22

Citation analysis

baselines: help put citation statistics into context

research fronts: create clusters of highly cited articles, useful for identifying ground breaking discoveries

23

Research FrontsResearch fronts are groups

of highly cited papers referred to as “core papers”

in a specialized topics.

To identify a research front, ISC uses co-citation cluster analysis of highly cited papers.

24

Research fronts show the hottest topics in research

community.
