Abstract:   Based on the articles accepted by Physical Review E (PRE) from 1993 to 2016, the influence of academic groups is comprehensively evaluated by combining social network analysis and the entropy weight method and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. Firstly, co-authorship network in view of the co-authorship relationship among authors is constructed, and the invisible academic groups in the field of physics is identified by community partition algorithm. Moreover, through exploring the relationship between each index and the influence of academic groups, the influencing factors of academic groups are defined, and then the index system for evaluating the influence of academic groups is constructed. Finally, the entropy weight method (EWM) and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method are combined to construct a comprehensive evaluation model of the influence of academic groups. The analysis enriches influencing factors of academic groups and enlarges disciplinary fields of academic groups and academic influence, which provides new ideas for further related research.

Key words: academic group, social network analysis (SNA), index system, entropy weight method (EWM), fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method
