Ying Ye (Fred Y. Ye)

---

Fred Y. Ye (Ying Ye) is a professor and researcher in scientific metrics and interdisciplinary analytics. His publications include more than 100 articles with 3 monographs and 3 textbooks. He is known for his contributions to (1) scientific metrics with interdisciplinary applications and h-type metrics for network analysis; (2) vortex-based physics characterized by vortex field theory; (3) complex economics for interpreting efficiency-equity equilibrium. His research also extends to physical and economic philosophy as well as design philosophy.

Ye is a professor at Nanjing University, Fellow of European Academy of Sciences and Arts, a life-long member of International Society for Scientometrics and Informetrics and the member of the Editorial Committees for Journal of Informetrics, Journal of Data and Information Science and so on. During Sept. 2000 to Sept. 2001, Dr. Ye was a Fulbright research scholar in the University of Arizona and the University of Michigan in USA. Since 2010, Ye was visiting professor in American, European and Australian universities, including University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and Boston University in the USA, Humboldt University in Germany, K.U. Leuven in Belgium, University of Sheffield and University of Cambridge in the UK, etc.
