In KleberNeves/CRMilestones: R Interface For Finding Milestones With CRExplorer

Description Usage Arguments Details Value

Given a data frame of cited references, it runs a multi-RPYS analysis to find the milestones. Details of the algorithm can be found in the following references:

identify_milestones(
  CR_data,
  n_milestones = 10,
  n_refs = 1,
  min_times_cited = 2,
  cited_year_range = NULL
)

`CR_data`	A list containing the bibliometric data frame, as returned by run_CRE()
`n_milestones`	How many milestone years will be selected (default is 10).
`n_refs`	How many references from each year will be selected (default is 1).
`min_times_cited`	References cited strictly less than this argument will be excluded from the analysis (default is 2)
`cited_year_range`	Passed to the plotting function (the analysis will take up the full range)
