AIORQS Scoring Methodology
Each research dimension is evaluated on a standardized 0-100 scale based on AIORQS international quality benchmarks. Dimensions are weighted according to their importance in architectural research excellence.
The final score represents a weighted average across all 10 dimensions, determining the overall AIORQS certification tier (Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze, or Red) for the research project.
