Highly Cited Canada Articles in Science Citation Index Expanded: A Bibliometric Analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The characteristics of the highly cited Canada articles in Science Citation Index Expanded from 1900 to 2011 were revealed. Articles that have been cited at least 100 times since publication to 2011 were assessed regarding their distribution in indexed journals and categories of the Web of Science. The citation lives of the top articles depending on citations in publication year, recent year, and years after publications were investigated for the impact history of articles. A new indicator, Y-index, was successfully applied to evaluate publication characteristics of Canada authors and institutions. University of Toronto was the most productive institution. The top three most productive categories of the Web of Science were biochemistry and molecular biology, multidisciplinary sciences, and neurosciences. Journal of Biological Chemistry and Nature hosted the most highly cited Canada articles. In addition, the Y-index was applied to evaluate the publication character of authors and institutions.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.
How this classification was reachedexpand
Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.
| Model arm | Categories | Study design | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| gemma | Bibliometrics Domain: not available · Genre: Empirical About the Canadian research system: no · About a Canadian topic: yes | Observational | low |

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedLabeled directly by 2 models reading the full record.
