An important disadvantage of the h-index is that typically it cannot take into account the specific field of research of a researcher. Usually sample point estimates of the average and median h-index values for the various fields are reported that are highly variable and dependent of the specific samples and it would be useful to provide confidence intervals of prediction accuracy. In this paper we apply the non-parametric bootstrap technique for constructing confidence intervals for the h-index for different fields of research. In this way no specific assumptions about the distribution of the empirical h-index are required as well as no large samples since that the methodology is based on resampling from the initial sample. The results of the analysis showed important differences between the various fields. The performance of the bootstrap intervals for the mean and median h-index for most fields seems to be rather satisfactory as revealed by the performed simulation. 相似文献

The Shewhart and the Bonferroni-adjustment R and S chart are usually applied to monitor the range and the standard deviation
of a quality characteristic. These charts are used to recognize the process variability of a quality characteristic. The control
limits of these charts are constructed on the assumption that the population follows approximately the normal distribution
with the standard deviation parameter known or unknown. In this article, we establish two new charts based approximately on
the normal distribution. The constant values needed to construct the new control limits are dependent on the sample group
size (k) and the sample subgroup size (n). Additionally, the unknown standard deviation for the proposed approaches is estimated by a uniformly minimum variance unbiased
estimator (UMVUE). This estimator has variance less than that of the estimator used in the Shewhart and Bonferroni approach.
The proposed approaches in the case of the unknown standard deviation, give out-of-control average run length slightly less
than the Shewhart approach and considerably less than the Bonferroni-adjustment approach. 相似文献

In this paper, some new indices for ordinal data are introduced. These indices have been developed so as to measure the degree of concentration on the “small” or the “large” values of a variable whose level of measurement is ordinal. Their advantage in relation to other approaches is that they ascribe unequal weights to each class of values. Although, they constitute a useful tool in various fields of applications, the focus here is on their use in sample surveys and specifically in situations where one is interested in taking into account the “distance” of the responses from the “neutral” category in a given question. The properties of these indices are examined and methods for constructing confidence intervals for their actual values are discussed. The performance of these methods is evaluated through an extensive simulation study. 相似文献

The paper deals with some new indices for ordinal data that arise from sample surveys. Their aim is to measure the degree
of concentration to the “positive” or “negative” answers in a given question. The properties of these indices are examined.
Moreover, methods for constructing confidence limits for the indices are discussed and their performance is evaluated through
an extensive simulation study. Finally, the values of the indices defined and their confidence intervals are calculated for
an example with real data.
