Retrieval of very large numbers of items in the Web of Science: an exercise to develop accurate search strategies

TL;DR: The retrieval of the entire scientific production from the United States in a specific year (2007) is counted and an advanced search strategy is designed and a Boolean statement was created with the aim of eliminating overlapped sections and improving the accuracy of this search strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A formal relation between the h-index of a set of articles and their I3 score

TL;DR: The h-index can be written in such a way that it formally resembles an I 3 score, yet this formal correspondence should not hide the fact that these indicators are fundamentally different.
Journal ArticleDOI

Category theory and informetrics: Information production processes

TL;DR: It is shown that to develop Egghe's theory on IPP's one needs no other intervals than the unit interval, and a natural isomorphism involving the identity functor on a category of continuous IPP’s is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI

A preliminary investigation on diffusion through a layered system

TL;DR: A fractional counting system for the number of different units in a layer; the fractional number of items of the same type in the same layer over which ideas have been diffused; and the evenness of diffusion over different layers are constructed to measure the extent to which scientific ideas are diffused.
Journal ArticleDOI

A refined method for computing bibliographic coupling strengths

TL;DR: This new method is based on the TF-IDF formula from the field of information retrieval and it is shown that this formula is a valid alternative for the original formula introduced by Kessler and is, from a probabilistic point of view, a correction of the Vladutz-Cook formula.
