As we expand across research domains, not all venues and publication contexts carry the same signal strength. We want to incorporate tier-based weighting into the impact prediction model (e.g., conferences, journals, venues).
Goal:
Explore whether venue tiers (or similar structured signals) can improve the robustness and generalization of impact prediction.
Possible areas to consider:
- Conference vs journal weighting
- Venue reputation tiers
- Configurable weighting multipliers
- Ensuring fairness across different research fields
Key Considerations
- Avoid hardcoding rigid or biased rankings
- Keep weighting configurable where possible
- Ensure changes improve prediction stability, not just ranking volatility
