Indian Science Reports

2022-Continued

The Indian Science Reports portal is a repository of various quantitative indicators of Indian Scientific research during the period 2010-19. While some indicator values (namely, TP, TC and Cited %) are taken from the scholarly database Dimensions, most of the other indicators are computed by using standard Scientometric methods. Some values (such as x and x(g) index) are computed by using network-based and text-based analytical methods. Relevant comparisons with other major countries are also provided..

TextAnalytics

2021-Continued

Text Analytics Research is a group of researchers working in the area of text analytics, information systems, scientometrics and artificial intelligence. The group also maintains a Text Analytics Laboratory based at Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India. The group members include faculty members, post doctoral researchers, doctoral researchers, few masters students and some collaborators from India and abroad.
