This dataset contains impact measures (metrics/indicators) for ~132M distinct DOIs that correspond to scientific articles. In particular, for each article we have calculated the following measures: Citation count: The total number of citations, reflecting the "influence" (i.e., the total impact) of an article. Incubation Citation Count (3-year CC): This is a time-restricted version of the citation count, where the time window length is fixed for all papers and the time window depends on the publication date of the paper, i.e., only citations 3 years after each paper’s publication are counted. This measure can be seen as an indicator of a paper's "impulse", i.e., its initial momentum directly after its publication. PageRank score: This is a citation-based measure reflecting the "influence" (i.e., the total impact) of an article. It is based on the PageRank1 network analysis method. In the context of citation networks, PageRank estimates the importance of each article based on its centrality in the whole network. RAM score: This is a citation-based measure reflecting the "popularity" (i.e., the current impact) of an article. It is based on the RAM2 method and is essentially a citation count where recent citations are considered as more important. This type of “time awareness” alleviates problems of methods like PageRank, which are biased against recently published articles (new articles need time to receive a “sufficient” number of citations). Hence, RAM is more suitable to capture the current “hype” of an article. AttRank score: This is a citation network analysis-based measure reflecting the "popularity" (i.e., the current impact) of an article. It is based on the AttRank3 method. AttRank alleviates PageRank’s bias against recently published papers by incorporating an attention-based mechanism, akin to a time-restricted version of preferential attachment, to explicitly capture a researcher’s preference to read papers which received a lot of attention recently. This is why it is more suitable to capture the current “hype” of an article. More details about the aforementioned impact measures, the way they are calculated and their interpretation can be found here. For version 5.1 onwards, the impact measures are calculated in two levels: The DOI level (assuming that each DOI corresponds to a distinct scientific article. The OpenAIRE-id level (leveraging DOI synonyms based on OpenAIRE's deduplication algorithm4 - each distinct article has its own OpenAIRE id). Previous versions of the dataset only provided the scores at the DOI level. For each calculation level (DOI / OpenAIRE-id) we provide five (5) compressed CSV files (one for each measure/score provided) where each line follows the format “identifier <tab> score”. The parameter setting of each measure is encoded in the corresponding filename. For more details on the different measures/scores see our extensive experimental study5 and the configuration of AttRank in the original paper.3 Files for the OpenAIRE-ids case contain the keyword "openaire_ids" in the filename. The data used to produce the citation network on which we calculated the provided measures have been gathered from (a) the OpenCitations’ COCI dataset (Mar-2022 version), (b) a MAG6,7 snapshot from Dec-2021, and (c) a Crossref snapshot from Apr-2022. The union of all distinct DOI-to-DOI citations that could be found in these sources have been considered (entries without a DOI were omitted). References: R. Motwani L. Page, S. Brin and T.
