A New Semantic Similarity Based Measure For Assessing Research Publication’s Contribution / quote 7 of 12
Impact depends on content, not interactions
In this paper, we present an approach for assessing the impact of a paper based on its full-text (Section 2). In this context, we use the term impact to refer to the research contribution to the discipline, which we believe is independent of the number of interactions in a scholarly communication network, but depends primarily on the content of the manuscript itself.
