Prof. Meng - Emrecan Tarakci

1.Introduction

After the discussion and the agreement of the project with Professor Weiyi Meng, I - Emrecan Tarakci- have started working on the project known as Publication Analysis on Google Scholar. This project was for meeting the demand of Senior Project I & II courses. Program for Publication Analysis on Google Scholar mainly focuses on extracting the records from Google Scholar such as name of author/s, title of paper, year of publication, publication venue and citation count. After extraction and storing, the program analyzes and computes the count of self-citations, non-self-citations, i10-index, H-index and the number of academician's publications per year. Since the program will work for the Watson faculty members at first, the program computes the total citation count, the total non-self-citation count, the average citation count, the average non-self-citation count, the total i10-index, the total i10-index based on non-self-citation, the average i10-index, the average i10-index based on non-self-citation, the average H-index, the average H-index based on non-self-citation, the ratio of total non-self-citation over the total citation.
