Sorry everyone, but this doesn't pass the smell test for me. Over half of their citations are for research that's 20-40 years old, and their more contemporary citations are from papers the authors themselves published in the last ten years.

- smingo 3y agoNot so sure that's fair. There are papers cited from 2016 that are from other authors.
