On the normalization and distributional adjustment of journal ranking metrics: A simple parametric approach
提出一种简单的参数化统计方法,通过选择最优标准化因子和分布调整,实现同一学科内不同引文期刊排名指标的比较,以及同一指标跨学科的比较。
This paper presents a simple parametric statistical approach to comparing different citation‐based journal ranking metrics within a single academic field. The mechanism can also be used to compare the same metric across different academic fields. The mechanism operates by selecting an optimal normalization factor and an optimal distributional adjustment for the rank–score curve, both of which are instrumental in making sound intermetric and interfield journal comparisons.
