Predicting Citation Counts with a Neural Network

arXiv:1806.04641 · doi:10.1007/s11192-019-03110-2

Abstract

We here describe and present results of a simple neural network that predicts individual researchers' future citation counts based on a variety of data from the researchers' past. For publications available on the open access-server arXiv.org we find a higher predictability than previous studies.
