The Z-index: A geometric representation of productivity and impact which accounts for information in the entire rank-citation profile
作者：
Highlights：
• Z incorporates information from entire productivity and impact rank-citation profile.
• Z corrects for potentially large penalties against highly-cited papers.
• Z is less sensitive to local changes, hence robust against self-citation strategies.
• Z requires only C and h, values listed already by Google Scholar and ResearcherID.com.
• Rank-stability analysis of 476 physics and 488 biologists, comparing h, g, and Z.
