Assessing the Quality of Scientific Publications: A Thorough Analysis of Citation-Based and Content-Oriented Metrics for Evaluating Research Impact and Scholarly Contribution
The evaluation of scientific publications is a cornerstone of scholarly research, providing essential insights into the impact, significance, and intellectual contributions of research outputs. Traditional bibliometric indicators, including Impact Factor (IF), h-index, and citation counts, have historically been the dominant measures to assess research quality. However, with the rapid evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its increasing integration into various scientific disciplines, these conventional evaluation methodologies are being reevaluated due to the
