CitationRank (like PageRank accept for papers/citations) about grisham HOT 2 OPEN

If this ranking has to be done purely on the basis of citations, then i
have done it. I can explain when we meet.
Just brain storming - is citations the only factor for a paper to be
important or it also depends on who cited it - for eg -

2 papers, both have 50 citations in dblp, but one gets cited by more
important papers.

Here is another problem for you @virup https://github.com/virup
@clintpgeorge https://github.com/clintpgeorge @supriyanhttps://github.com/supriyan

We want to calculate a global importance factor for all the papers in the
data set.
This is similar to page rank. The value of a paper CR(p) should produce a
value that is the probability that if I am randomly looking for an
important paper I land on p.

A paper with citations should have a higher value than a paper with no
citations.

A paper with P citations should have a smaller value compared to a paper
with G citations of citations where |P| - |G| < sigma.

The references of a paper do no affect the paper's score. (Although we
should have a self-citation penalty)

Also, can we compute these values using SQL?

OK, I have a solution that it looks like it solves the problem. It is in UDF/citation_count.sql. You can see the program UDF/citation_count.py to see what the solution is supposed to be.
