What does this mean?

These indicators summarize research strength across outputs, influence, and societal alignment — designed for accreditors, funders, and strategic planning.

Why it matters

Ranking frameworks reward consistency, openness, and impact. This dashboard makes CoU performance measurable, explainable, and exportable.

How CoU uses this

Identify fast-growing themes, guide funding, strengthen collaborations, and monitor policy/industry uptake — from one decision-support page.

Research Output Taxonomy & Classification

A consistent taxonomy ensures outputs are comparable across disciplines and reporting requirements.

Tooltip: Why this classification matters — it keeps reporting consistent across internal QA, external rankings, and open science standards.

Scholarly

Journal articles, books, chapters, conference papers.

Applied

Patents, prototypes, standards contributions, industry solutions.

Societal

Policy papers, NGO reports, community guidance, public scholarship.

Digital

Datasets, software, APIs, research notebooks, open tools.

Creative

Designs, media, digital humanities outputs, creative artifacts.

Time-Series Research Growth Analytics

Track multi-year growth by output type with CAGR indicators and acceleration signals.

CAGR: — Acceleration: — AI forecast: next 3 years

Chart updates with taxonomy + time window. Forecast is a lightweight projection (replaceable with a full model later).

SDG density + intensity can be used for reporting and impact narratives.

Researcher Performance & Contribution Analytics

Field-aware metrics designed for fairness: normalized impact, collaboration, and open science contributions.

Filters

What does this mean?

Metrics combine quantity with influence, collaboration, and openness — not “counts only”.

How CoU uses this

Recognize interdisciplinary leaders, support early career growth, and strengthen open science.

    Benchmarks are placeholders — replace with curated peer datasets when available.

    Open Analytics, Trust & Downloads

    Transparent methodology, clear exclusions, and machine-readable exports make this page API-ready and audit-friendly.

    Methodology & Calculations

    How these metrics are calculated

    Total Outputs is the sum of all output types in the selected time window and category.

    Global Impact Score is a normalized composite (citations + openness + diffusion).

    Policy Influence Index uses policy/report citations weighted by recency.

    Industry Adoption Index is influenced by patents, prototypes, and partner uptake.

    SDG Alignment maps outputs to the 17 SDGs using curated keywords and researcher tagging.

    What is excluded & why

    Drafts without persistent identifiers, unverified duplicates, and outputs lacking minimum metadata (title, authors, year) are excluded until validated.

    External citation sources are included only when licensing and identity matching allow.

    Update frequency can be aligned with repository ingest & verification workflows.

    Versioning & Historical Archive

    Provides long-term evidence for accreditation, compliance, and trend analysis.

    Research Search

    Search connects to the repository smart search.
