最近，人们对大学排名越来越感兴趣。世界大学的年度排名由QS为《泰晤士报高等教育增刊》、上海交通大学、台湾高等教育与认证理事会发布，排名基于CSIC网络计量实验室的网络可见度。在本文中，我们比较使用一组相似性措施的排名。对于多年来发布的排名，我们还研究了纵向模式。仅限于欧洲大学的排名与莱顿大学科学技术研究中心的排名进行比较。调查结果表明，尽管每个排名采用不同的方法，但它们之间存在合理的相似性。最大的区别是QS-泰晤士报高等教育增刊和CSIC网络计量实验室的排名网络之间提供的排名。台湾大学的排名与欧洲大学的莱顿排名相似度最高。总体而言，当比较仅限于欧洲大学时，相似性增加。
Recently there is increasing interest in university rankings. Annual rankings of world universities are published by QS for the Times Higher Education Supplement, the Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the Higher Education and Accreditation Council of Taiwan and rankings based on Web visibility by the Cybermetrics Lab at CSIC. In this paper we compare the rankings using a set of similarity measures. For the rankings that are being published for a number of years we also examine longitudinal patterns. The rankings limited to European universities are compared to the ranking of the Centre for Science and Technology Studies at Leiden University. The findings show that there are reasonable similarities between the rankings, even though each applies a different methodology. The biggest differences are between the rankings provided by the QS-Times Higher Education Supplement and the Ranking Web of the CSIC Cybermetrics Lab. The highest similarities were observed between the Taiwanese and the Leiden rankings from European universities. Overall the similarities are increased when the comparison is limited to the European universities.
