What are extended values?
The database is not yet complete for disciplines relying on conferences and books.
extended values cover more materials other than journal articles but not exhaustive. The other values are limited to peer-reviewed articles only.
However, we never count abstracts, patents, working papers, or unpublished documents.
top superscripts indicate the percentile among 4.9 million authors. rank refers to the rank rounded to 1,000 (K) or 1,000,000 (M).
rankings refers to the number of categories in which the author has been ranked.
What are the topics?
Topics are assigned if relevant keywords are found within the text, NOT author-provided keywords or the research objective. The purpose is to identify the topics covered in each article. For instance, if a method is used, the aim is to identify it as a topic for linking the relevant articles, though the technique itself is not the research objective.
