Getting an h-Index of 100 in 20 Years or Less!
Eamonn J. Keogh
Abstract
The title of this tutorial is clickbait! However, a high h-index (relative to the stage of your career), will make you advisor, chair, dean and chancellor happy, and it can help you get a job or get promoted. Moreover, I will show that h-indices are highly susceptible to the Matthew Effect, a high h-index may help you get funding and attract strong collaborators/students, which in turn will likely further increase your h-index! Thus, "kickstarting" your h-index early in your career can pay huge dividends.
