Аннотация

The article presents the results of the evaluation of quartiles of scientific conferences presented by leading rating agencies. The estimates are based on the use of three methods of multivariate statistical analysis: linear regression, discriminant analysis and neural networks. A training sample was used for evaluation, including the following factors: age and frequency of the conference, number of participants and number of reports, publication activity of the conference organizers, citation of reports. As a result of the study, the linear regression model confirmed the correctness of the quartiles exposed for 77% of conferences, while the methods of neural networks and discriminant analysis gave similar results, confirming the correctness of the quartiles exposed for 81 and 85% of conferences, respectively.
