Yann LeCun

Total scholarly outputs indexed in OpenAlex — journal articles, conference papers, preprints, book chapters, datasets, and more. Not filtered by venue type.

Sum of citations to all of this author's works, counted from other OpenAlex-indexed works. Google Scholar typically reports 1.5–3× higher because it indexes theses, books, and gray literature that OpenAlex doesn't.

Largest number h such that the author has h papers each cited at least h times. Rewards consistent impact over a single viral hit. Computed on OpenAlex citation counts, so will be lower than Scholar's h-index.

Number of papers with at least 10 citations each. A coarse 'how many of their papers actually got noticed?' signal.

Average citations per work published in the last two years. A recency-weighted impact signal — high values mean their newest output is landing, not just their classics.

Conference papers in the last 365 days (trailing window). Counts: (1) works tagged as conference, (2) venue names matching known conferences (NeurIPS, CVPR, ICCV, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, IJCAI, CoRL, SIGGRAPH, USENIX, OSDI, SOSP, CHI, UIST, VLDB, etc.), and (3) arXiv CS preprints — because OpenAlex usually indexes the arXiv version 6–12 months before the conference version, so for CS researchers arXiv preprints are the best leading indicator of conference-bound output.

All works published in the last 365 days — journals, conferences, preprints, book chapters, etc. Trailing window means it's stable across the calendar year, not biased low in January.
