Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Conference Paper Description
The recognition of handwritten digits is an application which has been used as a benchmark for comparing shape recognition methods. We train COSFIRE filters to be selective for different parts of handwritten digits. In analogy with the neurophysiological concept of population coding we use the responses of multiple COSFIRE filters as a shape descriptor of a handwritten digit. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach on two data sets of handwritten digits: Western Arabic (MNIST) and Farsi for which we achieve high recognition rates of 99.52% and 99.33%, respectively. COSFIRE filters are conceptually simple, easy to implement and they are versatile trainable feature detectors. The shape descriptor that we propose is highly effective to the automatic recognition of handwritten digits. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
