Summary: The number of scientific papers published each year is rapidly increasing, exceeding 2.9 million annually. New methodologies and systems have been developed to analyze the vast amount of data available from scientific databases such as Web of Science or Scopus. This paper analyzes the international scientific production and co-authorship patterns of the most productive authors from Serbia, based on the Web of Science dataset from 2006 to 2013. The authors conducted bibliometric and scientometric analyses, as well as statistical and collaboration network analysis, to understand the reasons behind the exceptional publishing performance of certain authors.

Summary: Australia and Korea, as two middle-power countries and R&D centers in Asia and the Pacific region, have close economic and security partnerships. However, their research specialization shows that they have different paths and are inversely specialized in terms of research focus. Despite their complementary competence, they do not have a shared field of excellence.

Summary: Co-authored research articles in the field of higher education have increased significantly in the past two decades. However, this growth has not led to a more diverse network, as existing co-authorship patterns dominated by scholars from a few Anglophone countries have been strengthened. China and Germany are emerging as increasingly influential research-producing countries in this field.

Summary: This article focuses on using Social Network Analysis (SNA) to investigate collaboration and co-authorship relationships in the Process Mining field. The study reveals that the co-authorship network in this field exhibits properties of scale-free and small world networks. The most central authors are identified using four centrality measures, including closeness, degree, eigenvector, and betweenness. The results also highlight the pivotal role of TU/e university in promoting Process Mining.

Summary: The research indicates that the output of Ranavirus studies is primarily driven by the United States and China, which together account for over 60% of Ranavirus publications. Additionally, there is a positive correlation between the average number of co-authors on Ranavirus publications and the year of publication, suggesting increasing collaboration. Keyword analysis reveals multiple research areas, emphasizing the need for collaboration across geopolitical and cultural boundaries.

Summary: This study investigated the scientific collaboration and citation metrics of reporting guidelines for health research. A cross-sectional analysis of published articles and network analyses of collaborations were conducted. The results identified key actors, intense collaborations, and 'citation classics' in the field, which could be used to strengthen collaborations for developing and disseminating reporting guidelines for health research.

Summary: Responsible indicators are crucial for research assessment, requiring transparency and accuracy to ensure fairness and reproducibility. This paper reviews different variants of the Probabilistic Affinity Index (PAI), demonstrating its utility in scientific collaboration and providing comparisons of implementation results. The selection of a particular variant depends on the research question, with recommendations for appropriate use in specific contexts.

Summary: This study conducted a meta-analysis to examine the impact of non-scientific factors on citation counts. The results showed that article length, number of authors, author experience and collaboration network, impact factors, open access availability, online sharing, referencing practice, and number of figures all had a positive influence on citation counts. These patterns were consistent across most disciplines, with trends indicating an increasing effect of journal impact factors and number of authors on citations.

Summary: The objective of this paper is to identify groups of countries with similar scientific collaboration profiles and analyze their collaboration with other groups. The collaboration is measured using a co-authorship network, but the network is heavily influenced by the most scientifically productive countries, which is correlated with their sizes. This issue is particularly important for countries with a large diversity like post-Soviet countries. Normalizing the collaboration network enables comparison between countries' collaboration and raises questions about its applicability and sensitivity to the collaboration structure. We analyze the co-authorship networks of post-Soviet countries from 1993 to 2018 and apply three types of network normalizations: affinity normalization, Jaccard normalization, and activity normalization. Each normalization provides different insights into the scientific collaboration structure. We find that country size has the strongest effect when using affinity normalization, while activity normalization seems to be unaffected by country size. Affinity normalization reveals a significant imbalance in collaboration among post-Soviet countries due to their sizes, and Russia has a substantial impact due to its size. Jaccard normalization shows that collaboration between countries is influenced by geographical neighborhood and the size of national sciences. Activity normalization detects the research potential of individual countries. Additionally, we observe significant changes in scientific collaboration over the past twenty-five years, with a decline in Russia's previously dominant position and the formation of new groups of intense scientific collaboration influenced by geographical proximity.

Summary: This study compares international co-authorship networks to identify the boundaries between social entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship research. The findings show that social entrepreneurship research focuses more on local challenges and has less international collaboration compared to entrepreneurship research. Developed countries play a significant role in international co-authorship in the field of social entrepreneurship research.
