Rényi's citation metric

Rényi's citation metric is a way to evaluate the impact and influence of academic articles and authors based on their citations. Unlike traditional measures that often focus only on the total number of citations, Rényi's metric considers different weights for citations, allowing for a more nuanced view of how frequently and in what contexts an article is referenced. This approach recognizes that not all citations are equal and helps identify research that may be influential or valuable beyond just the raw citation count, providing a clearer picture of scholarly impact.
