Our Coverage
League of Scholars holds data on scholars from the Top 5,000 universities
and research institutions worldwide. We collect and integrate bibliometrics
data from a range of open public data sources including Google Scholar,
Microsoft Academic and Webometrics.
Our comprehensive data coverage allows us to rank institutions globally
and nationally on multiple topics giving the institutions the opportunity
to gauge their ranking at a much granular level. These statistics allow
them to make informed decisions on investments in research centers, strategical
hires and academic promotions.
Using a Google-like ranking algorithm we have ranked all the authors in
our universe by their relevance and authority in over 15,000 fields. Our
rankings contain a range of factors including the quality of venues published
in as well as industry linkages. And because they are very granular - it
only compares apples with apples.
Our data collection contains samples of author statistics going back in
time for most authors giving us the opportunity to compute unique and robust
metrics of performance.
Our collection covers over 200 topics and 18,000 subtopics - derived from
global in-publication keyword ranking and analysis - enabling granular
and accurate author, topic and cross-institution comparisons.
Our analysis of author-topic relationships has enabled us to suggest related
topics to widen the scope of search allowing strategical recruitment much
easier.
