The quality and impact of scientific research is traditionally measured by citation-based metrics. However, the internet and social media revolution has led to radical changes in the way scientific information is shared and how it impacts the world. Alternative metrics (altmetrics) is a rapidly evolving measure to quantify social media attention received by a scientific work. It is a complement to the conventional metrics, and has tremendous potential in enabling faster alternative ways of evaluating research impact. We discuss the Altmetric Score and the growing role of altmetrics for measuring research impact.
科学研究的质量和影响力传统上是通过基于引用的指标来衡量的。然而，互联网和社交媒体革命已经导致科学信息共享方式及其对世界影响方式的根本性变化。替代计量指标（altmetrics）是一种迅速发展的衡量方法，用于量化一项科学工作在社交媒体上获得的关注。它是传统指标的补充，在实现评估研究影响力的更快替代方式方面具有巨大潜力。我们讨论了替代计量得分以及替代计量指标在衡量研究影响力方面日益重要的作用。
