New seniority-independent Hirsch-type index
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:

An extension of the h index that covers the tail and the top of the citation curve and allows ranking researchers with similar h
TL;DR: A two-sided h index is proposed, an extension that computes additional h indices progressively up the top and out the tail of the citation curve, one of whose elements is the scalar h.

The elephant in the room: multi-authorship and the assessment of individual researchers
TL;DR: Correcting for multi-authorship would end gratuitous authorship and allow proper attribution and unbiased comparisons.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review on h-index and its alternative indices:
TL;DR: In this paper, several scientometrics and bibliometrics indicators were proposed to evaluate the scientific impact of individuals, institutions, colleges, universities and research teams in terms of scientific impact.

On the relationship between citations of publication output and Hirsch index h of authors: conceptualization of tapered Hirsch index h T , circular citation area radius R and citation acceleration a
TL;DR: Analysis of the data of Polish professors in terms of citation acceleration a shows that: (1) the citability of the papers of a majority of physics and chemistry professors is much higher than that of technical sciences professors, and (2) increasing fraction of conference papers as well as non-English papers and engagement in administrative functions of professors result in decreasingcitability of their overall publication output.

Growth dynamics of citations of cumulative papers of individual authors according to progressive nucleation mechanism: Concept of citation acceleration
TL;DR: A useful scientometric age-independent measure, defined as citation acceleration a=L"s"u"m(t)/t^2, is suggested to analyze and compare the scientific activities of different authors.

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.

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.
