What is the h-index?
It is a metric that measures the impact of an author’s research by combining quality and quantity. It is calculated by sorting the set of papers from highest to lowest according to the number of citations. An author’s h-index, therefore, depends on the number of works published and the number of citations that each work has attracted.
