Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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.

Article Description
Document-level relation extraction aims to infer complex semantic relations among entities in an entire document. Compared with the sentence-level relation extraction, document-level relational facts are expressed by multiple mentions across the sentences in a long-distance, requiring excellent reasoning. In this paper, we propose D ual-Channel and H ierarchical G raph C onvolutional N etworks (DHGCN), which constructs three graphs in token-level, mention-level, and entity-level to model complex interactions among different semantic representations across the document. Based on the multi-level graphs, we apply the Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) for each level to aggregate the relevant information scattered throughout the document for better inferring the implicit relations. Moreover, we propose a dual-channel encoder to capture structural and contextual information simultaneously, which also supplies the contextual representation for the higher layer to avoid losing low-dimension information. Our DHGCN yields significant improvements over the state-of-the-art methods by 2.75, 5.5, and 3.5 F1 on DocRED, CDR, and GDA, respectively, which are popular document-level relation extraction datasets. Furthermore, to demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, we evaluate DHGCN on a fine gained clinical document-level dataset Symptom-Acupoint Relation (SAR) proposed by ourselves and available at https://github.com/QiSun123/SAR. The experimental results illustrate that DHGCN is able to infer more valuable relations among entities in the document.
