Collaboration Metrics
In the recent decades, co-authorship and scholarly communications between researchers can be commonly seen which are encouraged within the scholar community for knowledge exchange and extensions in the possibility of scientific discovery. To measure the level of scholarly collaborations, Collaboration metrics indicate research partnerships of different academic entities, including institutions, research groups or individual researchers.

% International Collaborations
The International collaborations indicator counts papers that contain one or more international co-authors. On InCites, the % of International Collaborations is an indication of an institution’s or author’s ability to attract international collaborations using the data from Web of Science. The formulation of the score is the number of International Collaborations for an entity divided by the total number of documents for the same entity represented as a percentage.
