Bibliometrics - (1) from biblio- = book; metrics = measurements. Relatively fine-grained measurements about publications, authors, etc. (2) from bibliome = complete corpus of biological texts; metrics = measurements. Relatively large-grained measurements about complete text corpora.

  • Updates:
    • TO gave an intro to queuing theory last week, and plans to present more in another meeting.
    • NM. Proceeding, data collection is fairly complete. Software is in good shape. Working on the thesis document.
      • Plans to tell us about the paper at https://akjournals.com/view/journals/11192/82/2/article-p391.xml next week.
    • TO status and plans: see https://bibliometriks.blogspot.com/p/to.html.
  • R&D (read & discuss): 
    • TO suggests people present summaries of papers during meetings, and started things off.
    • Meho, L.; Akl, E. Using Bibliometrics to Detect Unconventional Authorship Practices and Examine Their Impact on Global Research Metrics, 2019-2023. Preprints 2024, 2024070691, https://doi.org/10.20944/preprints202407.0691.v1. We finished up to "These practices, which rapidly undermine" today.
  • We adjourned at 12:10.

Bibliometrics - (1) from biblio- = book; metrics = measurements . Relatively fine-grained measurements about publications, authors, etc.  (2) from bibliome = complete corpus of biological texts; metrics = measurements. Relatively large-grained measurements about complete text corpora. This log is at: http://bibliometriks.blogspot.com . Updates. Queuing theory track: if it's too big for a project, can trim later; if too small, make it chapter 1 and do something else related for the rest. What? Cost of h-index (see below)? Queuing theory book (H):  https://www.abebooks.com/ 9788132204770/Queueing-Theory- Linear-Algebraic-Approach- 8132204778/plp?ref_=ps_ms_ 267691761&cm_mmc=msn-_-comus_ dsa-_-naa-_-naa&msclkid= c28ce203cdbc1cc1531e8493dde7ac 0c R&D (read & discuss): Commentary - "What is the total cost of using h-index as a metric for academia over time? I don't know how to measure it exactly, but I would hypothesize that it would raise costs over tim

NM - Working on learning and using Python along with calling SQL from Python. Google Scholar is making some mistakes, so we discussed handling that. Has about 125 people analyzed, across several domains and subdomains, 5 people per subdomain. TO - see https://bibliometriks.blogspot.com/p/to.html for current status.
