Department of Electrical Engineering Professor Park Ju-hyun (48) was selected as the world's top 1% researcher for the second consecutive year.
Thomson Reuters recently announced 3,200 'Highly Cited Researchers' in the world. Professor Park was listed for the second consecutive year in the math sector. There were a total of 105 scholars named in the math sector, and Professor Park was selected as one of the most influential researchers of the world.
Thomson Reuters is a global academic information service company and operates the biggest academic information database called 'Web of Science' of the world. Thomson Reuters utilizes the Web of Science Database and examines the number of citations of papers published by researchers around the world to select the Highly Cited Researchers in the top 1% every year. The number of citations is the most common scale for grading the qualitative level of a thesis. Being listed in the 'Highly Cited Researchers' is equivalent to being recognized for world-class research capacities.
This year, a total of 128,887 papers that had the highest number of citations among papers in 21 fields such as science and social science published from 2004 to 2014 were analyzed to announce a total of 3,200 researchers in the top 1%.
Professor Park published over 100 papers as the principal author for the past five years. The number of citations of his works is currently 7,446. Furthermore, the 'H-Index', which is a major index for evaluating the qualitative level of a paper, was found to be 48. Having a number of 48 for the H-index means that there are 48 theses with more than 48 citations. This means that he has published many papers with high qualitative levels.
The qualitative excellence of Professor Park's studies was once again confirmed to be of the world best in SCOPUS and Google Scholar, which are other academic databases. Google Scholar recognized the excellence of the research by having a total of 12,118 citations and H-Index of 59, while SCOPUS stated 9.148 citations and an H-Index of 52.
Professor Park explained, "I normally deal with basic research related to controller design for stabilization and analyzing the safety of various linear and non-linear kinetic systems such as time delay systems, kinetic network, chaos system, intelligence system, and multiple object systems." He added, "I am planning to further integrate the results of the basic studies in application research such as system biology, cyber physics system, and smart drones, and I will continue international joint research with prominent researchers around the world.
Professor Park earned his PhD in electric and electronic engineering at Pohang University of Science and Technology and began serving as a professor at YU since March 2000. He is currently active as an editor for a number of prominent international academic journals such as the 'IET Control Theory and Applications' published by the Institution of Engineering and Technology and 'Nonlinear Dynamics' published by Springer, which is a global publisher for the science, technology and pharmaceutical sectors. He served as an expert at the National Research Foundation Basic Research Center for four years from 2012, and he is also leading the 'Next Generation Smart Mechatronics System Development' team, which is being pursued as part of the Ministry of Education's 'BK21 Plus' project. In 2013, he was awarded the 'Knowledge Creation Award' by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning.
