The Institute of Scientific and Technical Information of China recently released the list of “China’s 100 Most Influential International Academic Papers” in 2018. Two papers from USTB were chosen, ranking USTB 10th in the nation for the number of papers selected.
The two selected papers “Over 14% Efficiency in Polymer Solar Cells Enabled by a Chlorinated Polymer Donor” & “Adaptive Fuzzy Neural Network Control for a Constrained Robot Using Impedance Learning” were written respectively by Assoc. Prof. ZHANG Shaoqing of the School of Chemistry and Biological Engineering, USTB, and Prof. HE Wei of the School of Automation and Electrical Engineering, USTB.
Assoc. Prof. ZHANG Shaoqing obtained her Ph.D. from the School of Chemistry and Biological Engineering, USTB, in 2017. She has long been engaged in the design and synthesis of organic/polymer photovoltaic materials and related research on photovoltaic devices. Since commencing her work, she has obtained 6 patents and co-authored more than 100 SCI papers, among which two articles have been recognized as “China’s 100 Most Influential International Academic Papers” in 2015 and 2018. Her works have been cited more than 12,000 times with a H-index of 60.
Assoc. Prof. ZHANG has been working diligently in the field of organic photovoltaic materials for over 10 years. During that time she has remained concurrent with the literature and learned from the work of research groups around the world, while carrying out her own innovative research work. So far, she has produced a variety materials and authored a number of high-level research papers, contributing her own expertise to the research of organic photovoltaic materials.
Prof. HE Wei is a professor of the School of Automation and Electrical Engineering and the Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence, USTB. His research interests include intelligent robot modeling and control. Currently, he serves as the Director of the Chinese Association of Automation and the Director of the Young Scholars Committee under the Chinese Institute of Command and Control. He is the Chair of the IEEE SMC Beijing Region Chapter, and the Chair of the IEEE SMC Technical Committee on Autonomous Bionic Robotic Aircraft; he also works as Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems , IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology , IEEE Transactions on Systems , Man, and Cybernetics , as well as IEEE / CAA Journal of Automatica Sinica .
Prof. HE won the the National Science Fund for Excellent Young Scholars in 2015, and the Newton Advanced Fellowship from the Royal Society, U.K., in 2017. He is a recipient of the Andrew P. Sage Best Transactions Paper Award announced by the IEEE SMC Society in 2017, won the first prize of the Natural Science Award of Chinese Association of Automation in 2017, and the first prize of the 9th Wu Wenjun Artificial Intelligence Natural Science Award in 2019. Moreover, he was selected as a member of the Young Yangtze River Scholars Program issued by the Ministry of Education and the Sci-tech Innovation Leading Talent of the "Ten Thousand Talents Program", and was enlisted in the Highly Cited Researchers released by Clarivate Analytics. Prof. HE has led five projects supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, one by the MOE Joint Fund Project for Advance Research of Equipment, and one sub-project of National Program on Key Basic Research Project (973 Program).
The “China’s 100 Most Influential International Academic Papers” winning papers were selected from the Chinese first author papers included in the 2018 SCI. 100 high-impact international papers belonging to 75 institutions were chosen; 76 papers were from colleges and universities, 14 were from research institutes, and 10 were from affiliated hospitals.
