Publications Indicators

Indicators are used to aggregate results in the context of a facet query.

Indicator	Description
recent_citations_total	For a given article, in a given year, the number of citations accrued in the last two year period. Single value stored per document, year window rolls over in July.
rcr_avg	Arithmetic mean of relative_citation_ratio field.
fcr_gavg	Geometric mean of field_citation_ratio field (note: This field cannot be used for sorting results).
count	Total count
citations_total	Aggregated number of citations
citations_median	Median of citations
citations_avg	Arithmetic mean of citations
altmetric_median	Median Altmetric Attention Score
altmetric_avg	Altmetric Attention Score mean

Publications Search Indexes

Search indexes are used to perform full-text searches on the source they belong to. The default search index, which is used if none other is specified, is full_data.

Search index	Supports multi-index search	Description
title_only	✓	Search for keywords in title only.
title_abstract_only	✓	The keywords will be searched for in the title and abstract fields. In addition, the following fields will be searched as well: Various unique identifiers (Dimensions publication ID, DOI, Crossref ID, PubMed ID, PubMed Central ID, ReadCube ID); MeSH Terms (for publications indexed in Medline).
full_data_exact	✓	Search for keywords in the full text of a publication. This search index is not normalized(stemmed), so useful for searching exact terminology, such as gene names, chemical compounds etc.
full_data	✓	The keyword will be searched for in all data fields that are found for that document, like affiliation, journal name, journal type, researcher name etc. as well as title and abstract. In cases where the full text is indexed in the background (roughly 70% of the publications in Dimensions) this will also be searched, even though the full text may not be available to see within Dimensions itself. This will mean that many results that are returned may not include mention of the searched keyword on the document page, but are returned in the search because the keyword can be found in the full text which cannot be read.
concepts	✓	Search for keywords in the concepts list for this publication.
authors		Search for name and surname combinations in the authors list of this publication (note: see the researchers search section for more details).
acknowledgements	✓	Search for keywords in the acknowledgements section of a publication.
