| Version: | 1.0.0 |
| Description: | H(x) is the h-index for the past x years. Here, the h(x) of a scientist/department/etc. can be calculated using the exported excel file from a Web of Science citation report of a search. Also calculated is the year of first publication, total number of publications, and sum of times cited for the specified period. Therefore, for h-10: the date of first publication, total number of publications, and sum of times cited in the past 10 years are calculated.

H-Index Calculator using Data from a Web of Science (WoS) Citation Report
Description
H-Index Calculator using Data from a Web of Science (WoS) Citation Report
Usage
hindexcalculator(readcsv, hx, date)
Arguments
readcsv |
- The read.csv function that will locate the citation report of interest |
hx |
- The h-index of interest. Can be any positive integer or "c" (without quotations) for cumulative h-index |
date |
- The last year of interest plus 1. For instance, if the citation report includes the year 2015 but you want h(10) not incuding 2015, therefore 2005-2014, you would enter 2015 for this argument |
Examples
#calculate the h(10) of the Brigham and Women's Hospital - Department of Anesthesia
data(BWHCitationReport)
readcsv <- BWHCitationReport
hx <- 10
date <- 2015
hindexcalculator(readcsv, hx, date)
