TLDR
In this paper, the authors defined the following seniority-independent Hirsch-type index, which is suitable to compare the scientific output of scientists in different ages: a scientist has index hpd if hpd of his/her papers have at least hpd citations per decade each, and his/his other papers have less than hpd + 1 citations per 10 years each.About:

A review of the characteristics of 108 author-level bibliometric indicators
TL;DR: This paper reviews 108 indicators that can potentially be used to measure performance on individual author-level, and examines the complexity of their calculations in relation to what they are supposed to reflect and ease of end-user application.

Psychiatry and the Hirsch h-index: The relationship between journal impact factors and accrued citations.
TL;DR: Despite certain flaws and weaknesses, the h‐index provides a better way to assess long‐term performance of articles or authors than using a journal's impact factor, and it provides an alternative way to assessment a journal’s long-term ranking.
Journal ArticleDOI
A methodology for Institution-Field ranking based on a bidimensional analysis: the IFQ2A index
TL;DR: A relative bidimensional index is proposed that takes into account both the net production and the quality of it, as an attempt to provide a comprehensive and objective way to compare the research output of different institutions in a specific field, using journal contributions and citations.

Successful papers: A new idea in evaluation of scientific output
TL;DR: The assessment based on the number of SP produces comparable scores for scientists working in different disciplines of science, and in different countries.

The success -index: an alternative approach to the h -index for evaluating an individual’s research output
Fiorenzo Franceschini,Maurizio Galetto,Domenico Augusto Francesco Maisano,Luca Mastrogiacomo +3 more
TL;DR: The success-index is introduced, aimed at reducing the NSP-index’s limitations, although requiring more computing effort, and a detailed analysis of it from the point of view of its operational properties and a comparison with the h-index's ones is presented.

An index to quantify an individual's scientific research output
TL;DR: The index h, defined as the number of papers with citation number ≥h, is proposed as a useful index to characterize the scientific output of a researcher.
Journal ArticleDOI
The R- and AR-indices: Complementing the h-index
TL;DR: The R- and AR-indices are introduced and it is proposed the pair (h, AR) as a meaningful indicator for research evaluation and a relation characterizing the h-index in the power law model is proved.

Sleeping Beauties in science
TL;DR: The first extensive measurement of the occurrence of Sleeping Beauties in the science literature is reported, derived from the measurements an ‘awakening’ probability function and identified the ‘most extreme Sleeping Beauty so far’.
The R- and AR-indices： Complementing the h-index
TL;DR: In this article, R-and AR-andAR-core are compared: R and AR-core, and AR and AR, respectively, in terms of their respective performance.

Generalized Hirsch h-index for disclosing latent facts in citation networks
TL;DR: The effectiveness and the benefits of the new indices are exhibited to unfold the full potential of the h-index, with extensive experimental results obtained from the DBLP, a widely known on-line digital library.
