Method for predicting citation counts
First Claim
1. A computerized process to predict citation counts of articles comprising the steps of:
- receiving an article through an input;
obtaining, through said input, a selected set of articles exclusive of said article;
storing in a memory said set of articles and said article;
extracting through a computer processor an article feature from each article in said stored set of articles;
constructing models through said computer processor using a pattern recognition process and said article feature;
selecting, through said processor, a best model;
predicting by application of said best model to said article by said processor a future citation count of said article;
outputting, said article comprising said future citation count; and
controlling through a publication controller unit, distribution of said article.

Abstract
A computerized process to predict citation counts of articles comprising the steps of receiving an article through an input, obtaining, through the input, a selected set of articles exclusive of the article, storing in a memory the set of articles and the article, extracting through a computer processor an article feature from each article in the stored set of articles, constructing models through the computer processor using a pattern recognition process and the article feature, selecting, through the processor, a best model, predicting by application of the best model to the article by the processor a future citation count of the article, outputting, the article comprising the future citation count and controlling through a publication controller unit, distribution of the article.

9. A computer system for predicting a future citation count of an article and controlling publication based on said prediction comprising:
-
an input device for receiving information regarding an article; a memory for storing said article, a set of articles, a bibliometric feature, and an author feature; a processor configured to; extract an article feature from each article in said stored set of articles, construct models using a pattern recognition process, said article feature, said stored author feature and said stored bibliometric feature, select a best model, predict, using said best model, said future citation count for said article; an output device for outputting said article comprising said future citation count; and a publication controller unit for controlling distribution of said article. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)

13. A computer readable medium containing a program for operating a computer for predicting a future citation count of an article, the program causing the computer to perform acts comprising:
-
obtaining, through an input, an article; obtaining, through said input, an author feature for a selected set of articles exclusive of said article; storing in a memory said author feature and said article; constructing, through a processor, models using a pattern recognition process and said stored author feature; selecting, through said processor, a best model; predicting by application of said best model to said article by said processor a future citation count of said article; outputting, through an output said article comprising said future citation count; and controlling through a publication controller unit, distribution of said article. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
