The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between the first affiliation and the corresponding affiliation at the different levels via the scientometric analysis We select over 18 million papers in the core collection database of Web of Science (WoS) published from 2000 to 2015, and measure the percentage of match between the first and the corresponding affiliation at the country and institution level. We find that a papers the first affiliation and the corresponding affiliation are highly consistent at the country level, with over 98% of the match on average. However, the match at the institution level is much lower, which varies significantly with time and country. Hence, for studies at the country level, using the first and corresponding affiliations are almost the same. But we may need to take more cautions to select affiliation when the institution is the focus of the investigation. In the meanwhile, we find some evidence that the recorded corresponding information in the WoS database has undergone some changes since 2013, which sheds light on future studies on the comparison of different databases or the affiliation accuracy of WoS. Our finding relies on the records of WoS, which may not be entirely accurate. Given the scale of the analysis, our findings can serve as a useful reference for further studies when country allocation or institute allocation is needed. Existing studies on comparisons of straight counting methods usually cover a limited number of papers, a particular research field or a limited range of time. More importantly, using the number counted can not sufficiently tell if the corresponding and first affiliation are similar. This paper uses a metric similar to Jaccard similarity to measure the percentage of the match and performs a comprehensive analysis based on a large-scale bibliometric database.

This paper analyses the potential use of bibliometric data for mapping and applying network analysis to mobility flows. We show case mobility networks at three different levels of aggregation: at the country level, at the city level and at the instit utional level. We reflect on the potential uses of bibliometric data to inform research policies with regard to scientific mobility.
This paper presents and describes the methodological opportunities offered by bibliometric data to produce indicators of scientific mobility. Large bibliographic datasets of disambiguated authors and their affiliations allow for the possibility of tr acking the affiliation changes of scientists. Using the Web of Science as data source, we analyze the distribution of types of mobile scientists for a selection of countries. We explore the possibility of creating profiles of international mobility at the country level, and discuss potential interpretations and caveats. Five countries (Canada, The Netherlands, South Africa, Spain, and the United States) are used as examples. These profiles enable us to characterize these countries in terms of their strongest links with other countries. This type of analysis reveals circulation among and between countries with strong policy implications.
We present the results of a large-scale study of potentially predatory journals (PPJ) represented in the Scopus database, which is widely used for research evaluation. Both journal metrics and country, disciplinary data have been evaluated for differ ent groups of PPJ: those listed by Jeffrey Beall and those delisted by Scopus because of publication concerns. Our results show that even after years of delisting, PPJ are still highly visible in the Scopus database with hundreds of active potentially predatory journals. PPJ papers are continuously produced by all major countries, but with different shares. All major subject areas are affected. The largest number of PPJ papers are in engineering and medicine. On average, PPJ have much lower citation metrics than other Scopus-indexed journals. We conclude with a brief survey of the case of Kazakhstan where the share of PPJ papers at one time amounted to almost a half of all Kazakhstan papers in Scopus, and propose a link between PPJ share and national research evaluation policies (in particular, rules of awarding academic degrees). The progress of potentially predatory journal research will be increasingly important because such evaluation methods are becoming more widespread in times of the Metric Tide.
In recent years, significant effort has been invested verifying the reproducibility and robustness of research claims in social and behavioral sciences (SBS), much of which has involved resource-intensive replication projects. In this paper, we inves tigate prediction of the reproducibility of SBS papers using machine learning methods based on a set of features. We propose a framework that extracts five types of features from scholarly work that can be used to support assessments of reproducibility of published research claims. Bibliometric features, venue features, and author features are collected from public APIs or extracted using open source machine learning libraries with customized parsers. Statistical features, such as p-values, are extracted by recognizing patterns in the body text. Semantic features, such as funding information, are obtained from public APIs or are extracted using natural language processing models. We analyze pairwise correlations between individual features and their importance for predicting a set of human-assessed ground truth labels. In doing so, we identify a subset of 9 top features that play relatively more important roles in predicting the reproducibility of SBS papers in our corpus. Results are verified by comparing performances of 10 supervised predictive classifiers trained on different sets of features.

By using publications from Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC), Fosso Wamba and his colleagues published an interesting and comprehensive paper in Technological Forecasting and Social Change to explore the structure and dynamics of artificial inte lligence (AI) scholarship. Data demonstrated in Fosso Wambas study implied that the year 1991 seemed to be a watershed of AI research. This research note tried to uncover the 1991 phenomenon from the perspective of database limitation by probing the limitations of search in abstract/author keywords/keywords plus fields of WoSCC empirically. The low availability rates of abstract/author keywords/keywords plus information in WoSCC found in this study can explain the watershed phenomenon of AI scholarship in 1991 to a large extent. Some other caveats for the use of WoSCC in old literature retrieval and historical bibliometric analysis were also mentioned in the discussion section. This research note complements Fosso Wamba and his colleagues study and also helps avoid improper interpretation in the use of WoSCC in old literature retrieval and historical bibliometric analysis.
