科学中的一致性会带来回报
Consistency pays off in science
AI总结：
本研究通过分析诺贝尔奖获得者的发表组合，发现持续产出高质量工作是成功的关键，并提出了能更好识别卓越的E-指数指标。
摘要：
科学论文数量的指数增长引发了关于科学中数量与质量相互作用的讨论。特别是，人们可能想知道哪种发表策略能提供更多成功机会：发表大量论文、产出少数几篇热门论文，还是介于两者之间。在这里，我们通过研究诺贝尔奖获得者的科学成果组合来解决这个问题。对不同基于引用的个人影响力指标的比较分析表明，通往成功的最佳路径可能依赖于持续产出高质量的工作。这种模式尤其被一个新指标——$E$-指数——所奖励，该指标比现有最先进的衡量方法更能识别卓越。
英文摘要：
The exponentially growing number of scientific papers stimulates a discussion on the interplay between quantity and quality in science. In particular, one may wonder which publication strategy may offer more chances of success: publishing lots of papers, producing a few hit papers, or something in between. Here we tackle this question by studying the scientific portfolios of Nobel Prize laureates. A comparative analysis of different citation-based indicators of individual impact suggests that the best path to success may rely on consistently producing high-quality work. Such a pattern is especially rewarded by a new metric, the $E$-index, which identifies excellence better than state-of-the-art measures.
