Predicting Citation Counts with a Neural Network

Digital Libraries 2019-08-09 v2 Neural and Evolutionary Computing

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.
