Y. (2014). A probe into the citation patterns of high-quality and high-impact publications. <em>Malaysian Journal of Library & Information Science</em>, <em><span lang="EN-MY">Vol.19, no. 2: 17-33.</span></em></p> <p><em>Enlightened by Avramescu’s studies, we classified the citation patterns of high-quality and highimpact </em><em>publicationsinto five mathematical types: lognormal type, exponential-type, polynomialtype, </em><em>wave-type and sleeping-beauty. Based on practical datasets of high-quality and high-impact </em><em>publications, the five types of citation patterns are fitted well at statistical level. The results reveal </em><em>that high-quality publications usually appear irregular citation curves (wave-type and sleepingbeauty) </em><em>and high-impact publications tend to show regular ones (lognormal-type, exponential-type </em><em>and polynomial-type).</em></p> <p><em><span lang="EN-MY"> </span></em></p>}, number={2}, journal={Malaysian Journal of Library and Information Science}, author={Jiang, Li and Ye, Fred Y. and Li, Jiang and Ye, Fred Y.}, year={2017}, month={Mar.} }
