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 h-index weighted by citation impact
Leo Egghe,Ronald Rousseau +1 more
TL;DR: An h-type index is proposed which depends on the obtained citations of articles belonging to the h-core, and it is shown that in a continuous setting the new index enjoys many good properties.

A modification of the h-index: the hm-index accounts for multi-authored manuscripts
TL;DR: The effect of this procedure is compared with other variants of the Hirsch index and found to be superior to the fractionalised counting of citations and to the normalization of the h-index with the average number of authors in theh-core.

Generalized h-index for Disclosing Latent Facts in Citation Networks
TL;DR: Several inefficiencies of the h-index are demonstrated and a pair of generalizations and effective variants of it are developed to deal with scientist ranking and with publication forum ranking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristic scores and scales. A bibliometric analysis of subject characteristics based on long-term citation observation
TL;DR: The chosen citation window of 21 years makes it possible to analyse dynamic aspects of the method, and proves sufficiently large to also obtain stable patterns for each of the disciplines.

A stochastic model for the ageing of scientific literature
Wolfgang Glänzel,Urs Schoepflin +1 more
TL;DR: The life-time distribution, special probabilities and mean value functions are used to characterize differences in the ageing structure of scientific literature, the change of citation impact in time and to analyse predictive aspects of reception processes.
