(Total 2.395.573 scientist, 221 country, 24.430 university)

What is the AD Scientific Index (Alper-Doger Scientific Index)? Developed by Prof. Dr.
Murat Alper and Associate Prof. Dr. Cihan Döğer in 2021, the AD Scientific Index is an
independent, international ranking system that evaluates the academic impact of scientists and
institutions. The AD Scientific Index analyzes 24.430 institutions and 2.395.573 scientists across
221 countries in 13 major academic fields and 197 disciplines. Based on data obtained from
Google Scholar and subjected to multiple levels of data filtering, this study provides a
comprehensive assessment of scientists' productivity coefficients, taking into account total and
last six years' h-index, i10-index scores, and citation counts. Through its academic rankings,
analyses, and comparative results, the AD Scientific Index offers extensive data that facilitates
the monitoring, evaluation, and development of policies for enhancing the scientific contributions
of both individual academics and institutions.

Why is the AD Scientific Index (Alper-Doger Scientific Index) Needed?

International university rankings typically evaluate institutions based on a variety of parameters.

These include research productivity, research impact, research excellence, educational quality,
faculty quality, research output, and per capita performance. Rankings also consider factors such
as teaching quality, research capabilities, international diversity, and financial sustainability.
Among these, publication and citation counts are particularly emphasized, as they are commonly
regarded as key indicators of academic performance. The methods used to calculate publication-
based indicators vary across rankings. Some measure the number of publications per faculty
member, counting not only articles but also notes, and divide the total by the number of
academic staff and researchers from the previous year. Data sources also differ, with some
rankings relying on SCIE, SSCI, or InCites. While some rankings consider only articles, others
include reviews, notes, conference papers, letters, and journal articles indexed in WoS over the
past five years. Certain rankings further distinguish themselves by counting the number of
articles published in "highly influential journals" like Nature, Science, and PNAS. Citation-based
metrics are also important. Indicators like the h-index, the number of publications in top 5%
journals by impact factor, and the total number of citations are widely used. These metrics are
often calculated using SCIE and SCI data from the past two years, though longer periods, such as
11 years, may also be considered. Other key citation metrics include citations per publication and
the number of publications in the top 1% by citation count. Many rankings also normalize citation
counts, either by subject or per faculty member. Some introduce new indicators by dividing
citation counts by the number of faculty members, aiming for more precise measurements.
However, research has shown high correlations between many of these indicators, suggesting
redundancy and indicating that some rankings measure the same aspects multiple times. This
leads to "indicator alignment," which implies that simplifying rankings by reducing the number of
indicators could maintain accuracy while making the ranking process more efficient. Additionally,
the chosen indicators are one of the main limiting factors that prevent these rankings from
exceeding 1500-3000 institutions and from covering more than 70-100 countries.

The AD Scientific Index stands out because it addresses the limitations of traditional rankings
by offering a more comprehensive and detailed approach. Unlike other systems that focus heavily
on generalized institutional metrics, the AD Scientific Index is the first and only system to provide
a dual analysis of both the total and six-year productivity of scientists. This analysis is based on h-
index, i10-index, and citation data, offering a balanced view of both long-term impact and recent
academic contributions. This dual focus is essential for accurately assessing a scientist's overall
career while also capturing their recent work, which is often overlooked by other rankings. The AD
Scientific Index not only ranks scientists individually but also across various academic fields,
institutions, and countries, providing a detailed and in-depth analysis of academic performance at
multiple levels. Furthermore, the AD Scientific Index offers a broad coverage that spans countries,
regions, institutions, disciplines, languages, and types of publications. By ensuring equal
opportunities for comparison, it provides a fair and transparent way to track academic progress
and identify trends within the global scientific community. This makes it an invaluable resource
for students, researchers, and institutions looking to gain insights into the academic
landscape. Ultimately, the AD Scientific Index addresses the limitations of traditional rankings by
focusing on individual scientific output and offering more precise, up-to-date indicators. This
makes it a necessary tool for better understanding and evaluating global academic
performance. The AD Scientific Index ranking formulas do not use any parameters that are not
publicly accessible or visible for individuals or institutions.

What are the h-index and i10-index? The h-index is a widely recognized metric that evaluates
both the productivity and citation impact of a researcher's published work. It is determined by the
number of publications (h) that have received at least h citations each. For example, an h-index
of 15 signifies that a researcher has authored 15 papers, each cited at least 15 times. A higher h-
index reflects a sustained impact in the academic field. The i10-index, calculated by Google
Scholar, counts the number of publications with at least 10 citations. This metric, while simpler,
offers a valuable perspective on a researcher's consistent academic influence over time.

How Is the "AD Scientific Index" Different from Other Rankings?

The AD Scientific Index (World Scientist and University Rankings) stands out with its unique
methodology and comprehensive approach. By combining total and last six years’ h-index, i10-
index, and citation data, the index provides a multi-dimensional analysis of academic productivity
and impact.

Comprehensive and Layered Ranking System: The AD Scientific Index compares institutions
globally, then categorizes them into specific groups such as private and public universities. This
layered ranking system allows for a more detailed understanding of institutional performance in
different contexts, offering a clearer and more nuanced comparison.

Identifying Academic Misconduct: The index also functions as a tool for detecting academic
misconduct, such as plagiarism, unethical authorship, and excessive publishing practices. By
focusing on these issues, the AD Scientific Index helps uphold academic integrity and reliability at
both individual and institutional levels.

Focus on Invidiual Scientists: Traditional rankings often evaluate universities based on factors
such as international reputation, research quality, teaching capacity, and industrial
collaborations. However, these factors largely depend on the contributions of individual scientists.
The AD Scientific Index emphasizes the achievements of these scientists, providing a detailed
analysis of their academic performance, which serves as the foundation for understanding
universities’ success in general rankings.

Accessible and Inclusive Data: Unlike other rankings, which often rely on data sets limited to a
select number of countries and institutions, the AD Scientific Index uses data on scientists that is
widely accessible to all countries and institutions. This inclusivity ensures equal opportunities for
recognition, allowing institutions worldwide to showcase their strengths. The index provides an
open and fair platform for all institutions aiming to highlight their academic achievements.

Democratic and Universal Approach: The AD Scientific Index highlights how individual
scientists’ achievements shape universities’ overall performance. This democratic and universal
approach ensures that institutions and scientists are recognized on a global scale, creating a level
playing field for all participants.

Conclusion The AD Scientific Index offers a transparent, inclusive, and multi-dimensional

evaluation of academic achievements for individuals and institutions. Its focus on accessibility,
integrity, and comprehensive analysis distinguishes it from other ranking systems, making it a
unique and valuable resource in the academic world.

Unique Features of the "AD Scientific Index"

publication. Our commitment to impartiality guarantees that scholars and institutions are
judged solely on the merit of their academic contributions.
2. Transparent and Rigorous Methodology: At AD Scientific Index, we use open-source
and verifiable data to ensure a transparent and rigorous methodology. Our data handling
processes, the algorithms we employ, and the weighting of these algorithms are clearly
defined, accessible, and open to scrutiny. By openly sharing how each criterion is weighted
and calculated, we enable our users to fully understand the ranking process, actively
participate in identifying and correcting any errors or ethical issues, and build greater trust
in our system. Corrected versions of reported errors are published within one week at the
latest. This approach ensures that all evaluations are conducted fairly, in line with the
principles of impartiality and equal opportunity.
3. Comprehensive Evaluation: The index uniquely shows the status of universities,
institutions, hospitals, and companies, both in total and over the last six years, according to
h-index, i10-index, and citation counts. This dual focus is not available in other ranking
systems.
4. Institutional Progress Analysis: It tracks and analyzes the progress of institutions over
the last six years, providing insights into how universities evolve over time.
5. Public vs. Private Comparison: The index compares public universities with each other,
as well as private universities, companies, hospitals, and institutes, both in total and over
the last six years, based on h-index, i10-index, and citation metrics.
6. Scientific Ranking Distribution: It analyzes the scientific ranking of academic staff
within institutions according to percentiles, offering a detailed breakdown of where
 institutions stand globally.
7. Individual Status Tracking: The index provides a detailed view of individuals' standings
according to their h-index, i10-index, and citation counts, both in total and over the last six
years.
8. Global and Regional Rankings: It ranks 2.395.573 individuals by 24.430 institutions, 221
country, 10 regions, and field globally, providing a comprehensive overview of their
academic standing. The importance of ranking individuals and institutions according to
specific branches and sub-disciplines cannot be overstated. This detailed analysis ensures
that both niche specializations and broad fields of study are accurately represented,
allowing for a more precise understanding of where individuals and institutions excel.
9. Top List Reports: The index generates top list reports for institutions by country, region,
and globally, allowing for easy identification of leading institutions.
10. Constantly Updated Rankings: Unlike other ranking systems that may update annually,
the AD Scientific Index renews its rankings continuously, ensuring that the data remains
current and relevant.
11. Valuing Feedback and Contributions: We highly value feedback and contributions from
the academic community. By actively seeking and incorporating this input, the AD
Scientific Index continuously refines its methodology, ensuring that rankings are accurate

12. Increased Visibility and Early Detection of Ethical Violations: Excessive publishing,
gift authorship, honorary authorship, citation cartels, fake paper factories, and other
fraudulent practices pose serious ethical risks in the scientific world. These practices can
undermine research quality and reliability, leading to a significant loss of trust in scientific
literature. However, one of the key advantages of the database we use is its ability to make
these ethical violations—previously thought to go unnoticed—highly visible and detectable
at both individual and institutional levels from an early stage.
13. "Art and Humanities Rankings" and "Social Sciences and Humanities Rankings":
Ensuring Fair Comparisons: Fields such as Art, Humanities, and Social Sciences are
often overshadowed by the emphasis on the natural sciences in traditional rankings. To
address this imbalance, we have developed separate Art and Humanities Rankings and
Social Sciences and Humanities Rankings. By utilizing Google Scholar, which includes
a broader range of academic outputs such as books and theses, we ensure fair and
comprehensive representation of these fields. These rankings allow for distinct evaluations
that consider the unique contributions of art, humanities, and social sciences, leveling the
playing field against the natural sciences. This approach enables institutions to be fairly
compared at national, continental, and global levels.
14. Subject-Based Institutional Rankings: A Key Resource for Cross-Border Transfer
and Equivalency Evaluations: The AD Scientific Index's subject-based institutional
rankings serve as a crucial reference for evaluating cross-border transfer or graduation
equivalency applications. Universities may excel or fall behind in specific subjects, apart
from their overall ranking. The AD Scientific Index provides a comparative global
performance assessment of universities in each subject, making it a valuable indicator for
equivalency or transfer applications.

Comprehensive and Inclusive Data Source Strategy

Ranking organizations rely on leading databases like Scopus (Elsevier), Web of Science (Clarivate
Analytics), Google Scholar, and Nature Index for publication and citation analysis. Each of these
databases offers unique strengths in evaluating academic performance, but they also come with
certain limitations. Our Approach: We value ranking both institutions and individuals, and we
adopt a methodology that is global, practical, and more inclusive. While maximizing the strengths
of our chosen data source, we are mindful of its inherent limitations. To address these, we
implement strategic approaches and continuously audit the data to enhance accuracy. By
recognizing the limitations of our data source, we apply effective monitoring tools to mitigate
these issues. These tools help us identify and correct errors, ensuring ongoing improvements in
data quality. During this process, more attention has been given to nearly one million individual
profiles, comprehensive data cleansing has been carried out, and many profiles have been
deleted. Our focus is not only on the correct usage of existing data but also on the continual
enhancement of its quality.

In summary, our methodology is built on a global and inclusive perspective, optimizing the
strengths of our selected data source while addressing potential errors and limitations through
robust auditing mechanisms. This approach ensures that our rankings are increasingly accurate,
reliable, and meaningful at both individual and institutional levels.

How Frequently Are AD Scientific Index Rankings Updated?

The AD Scientific Index is updated regularly to ensure the rankings reflect the most recent
academic achievements. New entries, deletions, corrections, and changes typically become
visible within one to three days. The h-index, i10-index, and citation numbers in profiles are
updated every 60 to 90 days. Data for the rankings is primarily collected from Google Scholar,
with a strong emphasis on standardizing names, institutions, and other relevant data. Due to the
vast amount of information and varying formats from different sources, data cleansing and
updates are ongoing and meticulous processes. Contributions from users to enhance data
accuracy are always welcomed, helping to maintain the reliability and relevance of the index.

How Can I Be Included in the List? The AD Scientific Index is continuously growing and
currently includes 2.395.573 scientists from 24.430 institutions across 221 countries. While the
list is regularly expanded, new additions are limited to individual and institutional registrations to
ensure data accuracy and reliability. Please note that requests made via email or other
communication channels are not considered. The only way to be included is by completing either
an individual or institutional registration through the 'Register' link available on our website.

We do not have a policy of automatically including every profile in the system. This approach is
necessary to manage the effort required to continuously ensure the accuracy, integrity, and
validity of data at both the institutional level (e.g., mergers, splits, name changes, closures,
license revocations, and suspensions) and the individual level (e.g., institutional changes, profile
deletions, deaths, ethical violations, and other updates).

Who Can Be Included in the List and Reasons for Exclusion AD Scientific Index has
included 2.395.573 scientists from 221 countries, 24.430 institutions, and 197 branches based on
their publicly available Google Scholar profiles. If you cannot find a particular name on the list, it
does not diminish the scientific value of that individual; it simply means they do not appear on
the list for various reasons. However, there are several reasons why a scientist might not be
included in the list:
 1. Technical and Resource Limitations: While we aim to be as comprehensive as possible,
it is technically and logistically impossible to include every researcher in the world. The
large number of researchers at the individual level, along with factors such as deaths,
retirements, frequent institutional changes, exclusions due to ethical violations, as well as
mergers, name changes, closures, and the establishment of new institutions, creates a
significant workload to keep the data up to date, making it challenging to ensure
comprehensive coverage. To maintain data accuracy and currency, the expansion will be
limited to registrations made through the Register link.
2. Absence of a Google Scholar Profile: Researchers who do not maintain a Google
Scholar profile, or whose profile is not public, cannot be included in the index.
3. The scientist's preference not to appear on the list or their request to be removed from
the list.
4. Incomplete or Inaccurate Profile Information: Profiles that lack sufficient information
or contain irrelevant data may be excluded from the index. This ensures that the rankings
are based on comprehensive and reliable information.
5. Changes in Profile Visibility: If a researcher's Google Scholar profile shifts between
public and private settings or if there are inconsistencies in the data, the profile may be
excluded during updates.
6. Ethical Concerns: Profiles found to contain unethical elements, such as misleading
publication records or false membership information, and profiles with retracted articles will
be removed from the index. Institutions are encouraged to monitor and verify the profiles
of their staff to maintain academic integrity.
7. Profile Deletion Due to Inaccessibility: Profiles that become inaccessible during
periodic updates or due to technical issues may also be removed from the list. Researchers
are advised to regularly check and update their profiles to ensure continued inclusion.

Ensuring Ethical Integrity and Accuracy in Profile Information: The accuracy of profile
information is an ethical responsibility of each individual scientist. To prevent the dissemination
of misleading or inaccurate information, institutions, countries, and professional societies are
encouraged to periodically review the profiles of their affiliated scientists. We place significant
importance on addressing reports of incorrect, misleading, or ethically questionable profile
information. Maintaining the integrity and reliability of the data within the AD Scientific Index is
our top priority, and we reserve the right to remove profiles without notice, including those with
paid registrations, if they are found to violate ethical standards, without issuing a refund.

Is Registration Required to View Your Ranking? Registration is not required to find out your
ranking in the AD Scientific Index. Scientists with similar h-index, i10-index, and citation counts
will be ranked accordingly. However, registration is necessary to be included in the ranking with
all its detailed elements.

How AD Scientific Index Ranks Scientists and Institutions?

The AD Scientific Index employs a comprehensive and multi-dimensional approach to ranking

scientists and institutions based on key indicators of academic impact:

Total h-index scores: Reflects the cumulative academic influence of a researcher across
their entire career.
Last 6 years’ h-index scores: Emphasizes recent academic productivity and impact.
Total i10 index scores: Indicates the number of publications with at least 10 citations,
showcasing the breadth of high-impact work.
 Last 6 years’ i10 index scores: Focuses on recent high-impact publications, highlighting
the researcher’s productivity in recent years.
Total number of citations: Measures the cumulative impact of a researcher’s
publications.
Number of citations in the last 6 years: Highlights the recent citation impact of a
researcher’s work.

AD Scientific Index: H-Index Rankings and Evaluation Criteria

H-index rankings assess the overall academic influence and impact of scientists within their
respective fields. Researchers are ranked by their university, country, region, and globally based
on their h-index, which captures both the quantity and quality of their scholarly output.

Primary Ranking: The total h-index is the primary criterion.

Additional Factors, in order: The last 6 years’ h-index score, total i10 index score, and total
number of citations are used sequentially.

AD Scientific Index: i10 Index Productivity Rankings and Evaluation Criteria

i10 Index Productivity Rankings focus on identifying scientists who are particularly effective in
producing high-value, highly-cited research.

Primary Ranking: The total i10 index score is the primary criterion.
Additional Factors, in order: The last 6 years’ i10 index score, total h-index score, and total
number of citations are considered sequentially.

AD Scientific Index: Citation Rankings and Evaluation Criteria

Citation Rankings (Highly Cited Researchers) emphasize the recognition and influence of a
scientist’s work based on the total number of citations received.

Primary Ranking: The total number of citations is the primary criterion.

Additional Factors, in order: The number of citations in the last 6 years, total i10 index
score, and last 6 years’ i10 index score are used to further refine the rankings.

These criteria are applied to evaluations focused on the last 6 years. Institutions are also ranked
according to these same criteria at the national, regional, and global levels, ensuring a thorough
and accurate assessment of academic performance across different organizational contexts.

By applying these criteria across both long-term and recent time frames, the AD Scientific Index
provides a comprehensive and balanced evaluation of a scientist’s and institution’s impact,
offering a clear picture of their contributions to the academic community. Additionally, the list
without CERN, Statistical Data, etc., provided exclusively by “AD Scientific Index”, is part of
our effort to balance the situation created by CERN and researchers with statistical data, who
have an advantage over others, especially those in the social and humanities fields. There is still
much work to be done in this area.

Studies Influencing Ranking Due to High Citation Numbers For studies with an unusually
high number of citations, such as those from CERN, ATLAS, ALICE, CMS, or those involving
statistical data, guidelines, and updates, we have implemented a procedure to ensure fairness in
the rankings. Authors of such papers are marked with an asterisk "i" at the end of their names to
indicate this distinction. This helps maintain the integrity of the rankings by recognizing these
studies appropriately without allowing them to disproportionately influence the overall results.
Additionally, there is an option to view a list that excludes these types of studies to further ensure
balanced rankings.

Why Are Last 6 Years' Ratios Important? The h-index, i10 index, and the ratio of citations in
the last six years to the total number of citations are crucial metrics that reflect both the
individual performance of scientists and the impact of institutional policies on the broader
academic landscape. These ratios provide a clear indication of recent productivity and influence.

Subject Rankings: Which Subjects are Ranked in the AD Scientific Index?

The AD Scientific Index offers an unparalleled depth of analysis by categorizing academic

achievements into 197 sub-disciplines across various major fields of study. This level of detailed
differentiation among sub-disciplines provides an analytical depth not commonly found in other
academic ranking systems. The sub-disciplines have been defined based on the branches and
departments within universities rather than research fields or areas of interest. This approach
allows for a clearer categorization of academic activities and contributions, aligning more closely
with the organizational structure and educational programs of universities. As a result, the unique
characteristics and academic impact of each branch and department within the university can be
more accurately and thoroughly analyzed by the AD Scientific Index.

Agriculture & Forestry: 15 subfields

Architecture & Design: 4 subfields
Business & Management: 8 subfields
Economics & Econometrics: 6 subfields
Education: 11 subfields
Engineering & Technology: 26 subfields
History, Philosophy, Theology: 3 subfields
Law / Legal Studies: 12 subfields
Medical and Health Sciences: 80 subfields
Natural Sciences: 6 subfields
Social Sciences: 22 subfields
Social Sciences and Humanities: 50 subfields
Art and Humanities: 6 subfields

This meticulous categorization within the AD Scientific Index ensures that academic contributions
are recognized in their specific contexts, offering a richer and more accurate depiction of
scholarly impact.

How Universities Are Ranked in the AD Scientific Index?

AD Scientific Index has developed its institutional ranking methodology based on the belief that
the most valuable asset of an academic institution is its "Valuable and Productive Scientist," with
all other aspects and processes being by-products of this core value.

We offer rankings that encompass all types of institutions, including universities, private
universities, public universities, institutions, hospitals, and companies, as well as specific rankings
within these relevant categories. For example, a private university can view its ranking within its
country, region, and the world among all institutions, all private universities, and all universities.
Institutional rankings in the AD Scientific Index are determined by analyzing the distribution of
scientists within the top 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, and 90% of the institution’s
performance metrics. Institutions that have a greater number of scientists within these percentile
bands achieve higher rankings. If two institutions have an equal number of scientists in a
particular range, the next percentile range is considered. If the tie persists, the institution with
the higher overall number of individual scientists is ranked higher.

The AD Scientific Index offers a unique and comprehensive platform for evaluating 24,500
institutions across multiple dimensions, including Total h-index, Last 6 Years h-index, Total i10
Index, Last 6 Years i10 Index, Total Citations, and Last 6 Years Citations. This in-depth analysis
allows institutions to assess their strengths and identify areas for improvement by examining
subject-specific and global percentile rankings. The AD Scientific Index's subject-based
institutional rankings serve as a crucial reference for evaluating cross-border transfer or
graduation equivalency applications.

Young University/Institution Rankings

We present the Young University/Institution Rankings, evaluating universities, research institutes,

companies, and hospitals established within the last 30 years that produce science and employ
scientists. This ranking determines these institutions' place in the global scientific community,
demonstrating that 30 years is a sufficient period to assess their development and impact. Our
analysis aims to objectively identify the strengths and weaknesses of young institutions, helping
them shape their strategies and formulate their policies.

Social Sciences and Humanities Rankings

The "Social Sciences and Humanities Rankings" is a unique ranking that consists of fields such as
Business & Management, Economics & Econometrics, Education, History, Philosophy,
Theology, Law, and Social Sciences. This ranking excludes areas such as Medicine,
Engineering, and Natural Sciences, allowing for a more equitable assessment within the social
sciences and humanities. As a result, individuals and institutions in these fields are evaluated
based on their achievements without being overshadowed by the stronger disciplines of the
natural sciences. You can find this in-depth ranking in this field exclusively on the AD Scientific
Index, and explore it not only at the institutional level but also individually, based on H index, i10
index, and citation counts.

Art and Humanities Rankings

The "Art and Humanities Rankings" is a specialized ranking that includes fields such as History,
Philosophy, Theology, Linguistics and Literature, Archaeology, and Arts. By focusing
solely on these disciplines, this ranking provides a more balanced evaluation of individuals and
institutions, ensuring that their achievements in the arts and humanities are recognized without
being overshadowed by the dominance of fields like Medicine, Engineering, and Natural
Sciences. This allows for a fairer comparison based on success within these creative and
scholarly disciplines. You can find this in-depth ranking in this field exclusively on the AD
Scientific Index, and explore it not only at the institutional level but also individually, based on H
index, i10 index, and citation counts.
