Citation analysis on publications from Academia Sinica

Abstract

This study employs the Web of Science to examine patterns and trends in Academia Sinica’s scholarly publications, aiming to offer insights into both the quantity and quality of its research output. Initial findings reveal trends such as saturation in paper counts, increase in citation counts, diversification of journals, shifts in prominent research areas, widening disciplinary variances, and an evolving landscape of collaborations. Although the study does not differentiate among Academia Sinica’s three divisions, specific results related to the Institute of Physics will be addressed. Additionally, comparisons with other research institutes will be explored.
