Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

An alternate method for ranking journals based on the algorithm used in the Google search engine for pagerank is applied to the information science and library science set of journals from Journal Citation Reports. A method of calculating individual paper influence based on this algorithm is proposed.Une méthode alternative pour classer les périodiques et basée sur l’algorithme utilisé par la fonction pagerank du moteur de recherche Google est appliquée à l’ensemble des périodiques des sciences de l’information et de bibliothéconomie de Journal Citation Reports. Une méthode pour calculer l’influence individuelle des articles basés sur cet algorithme est proposée.

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.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
