Abstract

With the impact of both the authors of scientific articles and also scientific publications depending upon citation count, citations play a decisive role in the ranking of both researchers and journals. In this paper, we propose a model to refine the citations in a research article verifying the authenticity of the citation. This model will help to eliminate author-centric and outlier citations thereby refining the citation count of research articles.
