Analyzing highly cited papers in Intelligent Transportation Systems Moral Muñoz, José Antonio Cobo, Manuel Jesús Chiclana Parrilla, Francisco Collop, A. Herrera Viedma, Enrique H index Highly cited papers H-classics Bibliometrics Intelligent Transportation Systems J.A. Moral-Munoz holds a FPU scholarship (AP2012-1789) from the Spanish Ministry of Education. Citation classics offer an outlook on those papers that have attracted great and historical interest by a research community and that could be also considered the basis of the research field. A new approach, which is called H-Classics, has been developed to identify such highly cited papers. It is based on the H-index and is sensitive to both the own characteristics of the corresponding research discipline and its evolution. The present study provides a useful insight into the development of the intelligent transport systems research field, revealing those scientific actors (authors, countries, and institutions) that have made the biggest research contribution to its development. 2020-12-15T08:59:00Z 2020-12-15T08:59:00Z 2016-04 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Published version: J.
