h-factor Analysis

These are the predicted trends in Harry's h-factor. Analysis by Mathew Peet.

After suggestion that there was a trend in Harry's number of citations per week, an analysis was performed. For previous three weeks the trend has been 53, 33, 27. (these data in file.txt)

The red line is a linear neural network with 1 hidden unit (3 layer neural network). Activation function was f(x)= a + b(x). Optimisation was achieved using the nonlinear least-squares Marquardt-Levenberg algorithm (i.e. a straight line was fitted to the data points). Of course the work is only preliminary, but if we extrapolate the current trend...

Harry would only reach h-index of 0 when he has been cited less than 0 times. Currently he has been cited 7,303 times. The current rate of decrease in citations is 13 +/- 4.041. Then it will take another 23 weeks before there are no citations at all. (not done iteratively, used f(x) = 7303 - 13 x^2.)

Web of knowledge also shows Harry has been cited far less times this year than last year.
