摘要
Enlightened by Avramescu's studies, we classified the citation patterns of high-quality and high-impact publicationsinto five mathematical types: lognormal-type, exponential-type, polynomial-type, wave-type and sleeping-beauty. Based on practical datasets of high-quality and high-impact publications, the five types of citation patterns are fitted well at statistical level. The results reveal that high-quality publications usually appear irregular citation curves (wave-type and sleeping-beauty) and high-impact publications tend to show regular ones (lognormal-type, exponential-type and polynomial-type).
