Research profile
Output—
No output score exists yet: the catalog holds a single reviewed paper and no publication-count or productivity time series is available. This axis would measure the volume and regularity of research output across years.
Impact—
Impact is unscored: with one 2026 arXiv preprint, the data contain no citation counts or downstream-usage signals. This axis would measure citations, uptake, and the work's influence on the field.
Focus100/100
The focus score is 100, the maximum, derived from a field distribution containing exactly one entry — remote sensing / geospatial machine learning (land-cover mapping) — across one cataloged paper. Concentration is therefore total but computed on a minimal base: with a single reviewed output, any second paper in a different area would materially shift this reading. The documented work is firmly anchored in land-cover product validation.
Collaboration22/100
Collaboration scores 22, computed from a raw count of 2 distinct coauthors across the cataloged record. Both recurring partners are named: Samuel Foucher and Yacine Bouroubi. The single reviewed paper is first-authored but not corresponding, consistent with a leading analytical contribution inside a compact team. With one paper, the score describes a small, stable working group rather than an established network.
Activity—
Activity cannot be scored from the current snapshot: only one paper year (2026) is documented, with no multi-year cadence to characterize. This axis would measure publication rhythm and ongoing research engagement.
Reproducibility55/100
Reproducibility registers 55, the mean readiness over exactly one scored paper (reproPapers: 1), whose individual rating is medium. The COTQ evaluation rests on structural, spectral, and photo-interpretation checks against public products (ESA, ESRI, Google), which aids replication, while Evolve's verdict — partly circular and statistically untested — marks the methodological gaps that keep the score mid-range.
Research summary
Etienne Clabaut is an early-stage researcher in the Evolve catalog whose documented work centers on remote sensing and geospatial machine learning, specifically land-cover mapping. The profile is name-resolved from public bibliographic data; no institutional affiliation, country, or ORCID is attached, and the evidence base is a single reviewed output: a 2026 first-author arXiv preprint, "A Systematic Evaluation of the COTQ Provincial Land Cover Product," co-authored with Samuel Foucher and Yacine Bouroubi, the two co-authors recorded in the catalog. The paper assesses COTQ, Québec's 10-m land-cover map, against ESA, ESRI, and Google products through structural consistency, spectral separability, accuracy assessment, and photo-interpretation. Evolve's verdict: COTQ matches ESA WorldCover on structural, spectral, and expert checks and is credible, though partly circular and statistically untested. Bibliometrically, the radar shows total topical concentration (focus 100, from a single-field distribution over one paper), a small collaboration footprint (22, with 2 distinct coauthors), and a mid-range reproducibility signal (55, averaged over one paper rated medium readiness). Output, impact, and activity axes are not yet scored for lack of data. The profile should be read as a narrow but internally consistent snapshot of a validation-focused early record.
Collaboration pattern
The catalog records a tight co-author circle: 2 distinct coauthors in total, both recurring partners — Samuel Foucher and Yacine Bouroubi — yielding a collaboration score of 22. The single reviewed paper is first-authored but not corresponding, consistent with a hands-on analytical role within a small team. All documented collaboration is concentrated in this one 2026 land-cover evaluation; broader network patterns cannot be characterized from current data.

About this profile
This profile is AI-structured by Evolve.Pub from public bibliographic data (OpenAlex) and Evolve's own paper reviews. It is not written or endorsed by the researcher unless the profile is claimed. Radar dimensions are computed from real bibliometrics with fixed formulas — raw figures are shown alongside; missing dimensions mean insufficient data, never zero. Errors? Claim the profile to correct or hide it.
- Bibliometric scores are computed from public bibliometric data (OpenAlex-based) only; no institutional affiliation, country, or ORCID is attached to this record.
- The evidence base is a single reviewed paper, so reproducibility (55) is averaged over one article and output, impact, and activity remain unscored.
- The profile is name-resolved from public bibliographic data; consolidation against homonyms has not been independently verified.
- The reviewed output is an arXiv preprint (2026); its peer-review status is not recorded in the catalog.
