This document discusses self-citation abuse in academic proceedings. It provides examples of one researcher who excessively self-cited their own work in proceedings publications and published the same papers across multiple venues. Specifically, the researcher included 40+ self-citations out of 49 total references in one paper and published the same content in proceedings and journals. The document argues that proceedings allow easy abuse through self-citation and duplicate publication in order to artificially inflate metrics like citation counts and h-index. It recommends limiting the number of references and percentage of self-citations allowed in proceedings to prevent this type of opportunistic behavior.
Coercive citation, cite my paper or elsemalirohwani
This is my final presentation of research project on Coercive Citation. While the article focuses on economics, business, sociology and psychology, the problem is likely endemic to all journals. Coercive citation can also be practiced by an individual serving as editor of a journal with the aim to boost one’s own citations. Failure to recognize this trend is likely to cause an underestimation of the breadth of practice in this topic. I recently conducted my study for an individual Professor Nelson Tansu in electrical engineering. My analysis based on tangible data is compelling and appalling
Being authors from Asian countries make it a vulnerable target for Editor to coerce citation. Journal editors can strategically target younger professors from Asian countries. The editor forces authors to add unnecessary citations to an article before the journal will agree to publish it. The editor knows that the authors need to get their papers published and therefore more willing to add any unnecessary citations. This article shows a proof in the IEEE OSA Journal of Display Technology Journal, which has 2 special issues on Recent advances in solid state lighting.
My lecture explains all you need to know about Academic Journal Editors. Role and Responsibility. Including Abusing powe. With great power comes great responsibility.
Scientifc journal plagiarism and citation manipulationmalirohwani
The document discusses issues of scientific integrity in academic publishing, including plagiarism, citation manipulation, and self-citation. It provides several examples of authors and journals engaging in these questionable practices, such as a journal editor publishing review articles that cited their own journal's papers to influence the impact factor, and a researcher having over 40 self-citations in a single conference paper. The conclusion advocates for placing great emphasis on scientific integrity in writing, reviewing, and evaluating academic work.
The document provides guidance on proper citation and reference formatting. It discusses the importance of accurately citing sources in manuscripts to avoid plagiarism. It also addresses different citation styles, including the Vancouver and Harvard systems, and notes there can be variations in style guidelines between journals. The document provides examples and recommendations for formatting citations within the text and listing complete references at the end, emphasizing the need for consistency.

This document summarizes research into the claims of Nelson Tansu regarding his status as the youngest professor. The research found that Tansu engaged in self-citation, self-plagiarism, and coercive citation in order to boost his reputation and career. Specifically, Tansu cited his own previous work at extremely high rates, in some cases accounting for over 80% of citations. He also published the same work multiple times and coerced journal editors into citing his work. The research concludes that Tansu exaggerated his accomplishments and used questionable practices to promote himself.
How to increase your h index and paper citation zwentang
Nelson Tansu was able to increase his h-index from 20 to 43 in just 3 years by employing strategies like heavy self-citation of his own work, encouraging students and co-authors to cite his papers, publishing the same work multiple times with self-citations, presenting many non-refereed conference papers containing self-citations, rapidly self-citing in the first two sentences of papers, becoming an editor of journals to coerce citations to his work from authors, and forming citation clubs or cartels with colleagues. Some of these strategies have been criticized as questionable or coercive ways to artificially boost citations and metrics.
The document provides guidance on how to write and publish a world-class paper. It discusses selecting the right audience and journal, the peer-review process, metrics for comparing journals, and tips for conducting effective literature searches and developing a strong manuscript.

Measuring academic influence: Not all citations are equalAndre Vellino
This document summarizes research measuring academic influence by analyzing citations. It discusses:
1) Background on citation analysis and its limitations in counting all citations equally;
2) An experiment collecting "influential" citations from papers to build a dataset;
3) Analyzing paper-reference pairs using machine learning classifiers trained on features like citation counts, context similarity, and position;
4) Proposing "influence-primed measures" that weight citations based on frequency to better measure influence, like an influence-primed h-index and impact factor. The researchers conclude influence can be measured by counting more relevant citations.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
it describes the bony anatomy including the femoral head , acetabulum, labrum . also discusses the capsule , ligaments . muscle that act on the hip joint and the range of motion are outlined. factors affecting hip joint stability and weight transmission through the joint are summarized.

10. Citation Tracking /
Searching
Citation tracking allows you to:
Find out how many times a paper
has been cited
Search backwards and forwards
in time to see how ideas develop
Find the most highly cited papers
in your field
Identify key researchers and
institutions by their citation
counts
11. Citation Tracking /
Searching
Collating this info is difficult
and not all databases or
websites do it
Web of Science
Scopus
Google Scholar / Publish or
Perish
12. Research impact of individuals
Using Web of Science you can find out
an individual’s:
- top cited work
- what journals they have published in
- who is citing them
- their H-index
13. H-Index
Developed by Hirsh in 2005:
"An index to quantify an individual's scientific research output,"
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,
102(46):16569-16572, November 15, 2005
www.pnas.org/cgi/reprint/102/46/16569
Means to evaluate research output
Based on number or publications and
the number of citations per publication
For example, an h-index of 10 means
that there are 10 published papers that
have 10 citations or more
14. Research impact of
individuals: Example
Charles K Kao, Nobel Laureate for
Physics, 2009
◦ "Father of Fiber Optic Communications"
Lets search Web of Science for Kao CK
What are his key works?

What’s his H-Index?
15. H-Index
Some high ranking physicists:
Martin Cohen, Berkeley 94
Philip Anderson, Princeton 91
Edward Witten, Princeton
110 (world’s highest)
But…
Charles K Kao (Nobel laureate,
physics, 2009) 6
Why? Mainly published in EE conferences,
monographs and patents.
16. H-Index
Mohamed El Naschie has an impressive H-Index of 33.

27. Citation Club
Of the 31 papers not written by El Naschie in a issue
of Chaos, Solitons and Fractals, at least 11 are
related to his theories and include 58 citations of his
work in the journal.
Ji-Huan He, the journal's regional editor for China,
also cites El Naschie's work frequently.
An issue of the journal has one paper by He that cites
himself 14 times and El Naschie twice.
He is also editor of the International Journal of
Nonlinear Sciences and Numerical Simulation, which
in a 2005 editorial said: "Men of genius like Einstein
and Elnaschie very often ask some straightforward
and seemingly innocent questions, which may turn
out to have undreamed of answers."
