A theoretical model of the relationship between the h-index and other simple citation indicators
- MathematicsScientometrics
- 2017
The genesis of these two formulas are reviewed, their effectiveness with that of a number of instances taken from the well-known Glänzel–Schubert class of models for the h-index are compared, and the Lambert-W formula provides a quite robust and effective ready-to-use rule that should be preferred to other known formulas if one’s goal is to derive a reliable estimate of theh-index.
