Our Coverage

Institutions

 

League of Scholars holds data on scholars from over 130,000 universities and research institutions worldwide. We collect and integrate bibliometrics data from a range of open public data sources including Google Scholar, Microsoft Academic and Webometrics.

Our comprehensive data coverage allows us to rank institutions globally and nationally on multiple topics giving the institutions the opportunity to gauge their ranking at a much granular level. These statistics allow them to make informed decisions on investments in research centers, strategical hires and academic promotions.

Authors

 

We have data on over 4,000,000 authors from around the world. Our rankings contain a range of factors including the quality of venues published in as well as industry linkages. And because they are very granular - it only compares apples with apples. Using novel machine learning algorithms we have predicted their age, gender and academic level which help in deeper analysis of research potential.

Utilising the current research collaboration network data we can assess each author's research network potential beyond their current organization.

Our data collection contains samples of author statistics going back in time for several years for most authors giving us the opportunity to compute unique and robust metrics of performance.

Research Topics

 

Our collection covers over 300 topics and 37,000 subtopics - derived from global in-publication keyword ranking and analysis - enabling granular and accurate author, topic and cross-institution comparisons.

Our analysis of author-topic relationships has enabled us to suggest related topics to widen the scope of search allowing strategical recruitment much easier.
