Statistical rating and ranking of scientific journals

Participants : Gilles Celeux, Julie Josse, Simon Grah.

In collaboration with Jean-Louis Foulley (université of Montpellier), Gilles Celeux and Julie Josse have started research on statistical rating and ranking of scientific journals. This research was the subject of the internship of Simon Grah (Université Paris-Sud). Simon Grah compared many models on a set of 47 statistical journals. His study showed that the Row-Column (RC) models appears to be the most relevant. In the future, Bayesian inference for different approaches, including PageRank, will be considered.
