In the course of the PLATONICK project and after holding the championships in scientific analytics of different kinds and levels, the Academy calculates individual and collective, national and international scientific rankings.
Rankings of the Academy are not based on personal opinions and individual preferences of an insignificant number of authoritative experts. They are based on objective assessment of creative activity and achievements of researchers throughout a long period of time.
To build the rankings here in the Academy we use information about the intensity and outcome of participation of certain researchers, who represent certain universities and countries, in championships in scientific analytics of the PLATONICK project.
The Academy calculates national, continental and the world rankings.
The scientific progress is obviously predetermined by activity and efficiency of creative efforts of scientists. Therefore, rankings of the Academy are also conditionally divided into rankings of activity and rankings of efficiency.

Personal research effectiveness ranking (PRER) shows individual results of participation of a specific researcher in championships in scientific analytics during the calendar year.
The indicator is calculated using the special formula, taking into account the following information: a) number of times the corresponding person participated in championships and the number of diplomas obtained; b) facts of co-authorship when writing the reports; c) average expert assessment mark; d) activity of the researcher in reviewing and discussing the works submitted by other authors; e) simultaneous participation of such a person in two or more sectoral championships.
The PRER ranking defines winners of championships in scientific analytics of different levels and types at the end of the year. - General (interdisciplinary) research activity ranking is a qualitative ranking which is calculated taking into account the number of times the certain scientists or representatives of universities or countries took part in championships in scientific analytics during the calendar year.
- Ranking of the special (field-specific) research activity of universities is a qualitative ranking similar to the previous one, but this index only takes into account facts related to a certain scientific specialization. Ranking of the general (interdisciplinary) research effectiveness of universities or countries is actually a yearly average score of representatives of a university or a country, which can be increased by bonuses granted for diplomas in championships in scientific analytics.
- Ranking of the special (field-specific) research effectiveness of universities or countries is similar to the previous one, but this index only takes into account facts related to championships in scientific analytics within a certain branch. There are also rankings of the Academy, which only cover participation of students and young scholars under 35 in championships in scientific analytics. These are: the ranking of the general (interdisciplinary) research activity of young scholars and students, the ranking of the general (interdisciplinary) research effectiveness of young scholars and students, the ranking of the special (field-specific) research effectiveness of young scholars and students.
All top positions in the rankings of the Academy bring the ranking diplomas and the honorary awards to the corresponding persons.
More information about the rankings of the Academy is provided at the special request of the interested persons.
