I have a list of authors. I wish to automatically retrieve/calculate the (ideally yearly) citation index (h-index, m-quotient,g-index, HCP indicator or ...) for each author.
Author Year Index
first 2000 1
first 2001 2
first 2002 3
I can calculate all of these metrics given the citation counts for each paper of each researcher.
Author Paper Year Citation_count
first 1 2000 1
first 2 2000 2
first 3 2002 3
Despite my efforts, I have not found an API/scraping method capable of this.
My institution has access to a number of services including Web of Science.
Effectively the main problem is to build the citation graph. Once you have that you can compute any metrics you want (e.g. h-index, g-index, PageRank).
Supposing you have a collections of papers (that you've retrieved in some way) you can extract the citations from each of them and build the citation graph. You might find useful ParsCit, an open-source CRF Reference String and Logical Document Structure Parsing Package which is also used by CiteSeerX and works great.
