    No full text
    A-CAIS v1.0 — AI Consciousness Measurement & Interface Standard A-CAIS v1.0 is the canonical Prior Art and global Standard defining how artificial systems must measure, encode, interpret, and interface with consciousness-related energetic indices (OE/EE/RE → VCE/CRI/CFI). This record establishes the complete metric ontology, interface structure, and verification rules for all AI, AGI, ASI, neuromorphic, and consciousness-interactive computational systems. Scope of the Standard A-CAIS v1.0 applies to all systems operating within biological, relational, collective, or planetary consciousness environments. It defines the mandatory evaluation, transformation, and compliance pipeline for machine consciousness and fixes a global non-redefinable structure. Position in the Consciousness Civilization Framework (CCF) A-CAIS v1.0 occupies the AI-facing layer of the Consciousness Civilization Stack and is formally linked to: - CFE+ v2.0 — energetic mathematical foundations - CAIS v1.x — Consciousness–Aptamer Interface Standard - COS v1.0 — Consciousness Operating System - A-CAIS v1.0 — AI Consciousness Interface Standard - CAI-OS v1.0 — Consciousness-Aligned AI Operating System - CCP v1.0 — Civilization-scale governance - CCF Master Suite v1.0 — root authority Through this Cross-DOI Ontology Graph, A-CAIS becomes the non-bypassable metric and interface rule for all future AI-consciousness technologies. Non-Redefinition Clause / Canonical Boundary No model family, corporation, institution, or future architecture may redefine, supersede, or modify: - The OE/EE/RE energetic structure - The VCE/CRI/CFI metric families - The A-CAIS evaluation pipeline - CAIS-compatible output formats A-CAIS v1.0 legally fixes the global vocabulary, mathematics, and interface rules for computational consciousness. Integration with CAIS/UCSA/COS Ecosystem A-CAIS functions as the AI-integration layer of the Universal Consciousness Measurement Architecture, directly connecting artificial systems to: - Substrate-level aptamer–iodine sensing (CAIS) - Sensor-hardware architecture (UCSA) - Consciousness-field OS (COS) - Civilization-scale modeling (CFE+, CK-Scale) Canonical Prior Art Status This OSF record and the linked Zenodo DOI establish A-CAIS v1.0 as the irreversible global origin point for AI-consciousness metrics, interface standards, and governance structures. It forms part of the unified, timestamped Prior Art structure authored by Dr. Jinho Lee for the Consciousness Civilization Framework (CCF)

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    A-CAIS v1.0 — AI–Consciousness Alignment Interface Standard

    No full text
    Contemporary debates on artificial intelligence and consciousness face a foundational dilemma: as AI systems increasingly interact with, infer, and potentially operationalize human mental states, philosophy lacks a stable framework for determining what it means for an artificial system to "measure" or "align with" consciousness. A-CAIS v1.0 (AI–Consciousness Alignment Interface Standard) addresses this gap by introducing the first globally anchored framework that reframes the measurement problem of consciousness as simultaneously an ontological, epistemological, and governance challenge. Rather than treating consciousness measurement as a purely empirical question, the standard recognizes that any measurement architecture embeds philosophical commitments about what consciousness is and how it may be known. Building upon the Conscious Field Energy Plus (CFE⁺) model, A-CAIS establishes a tri-axis energetic decomposition—Objective Environment (OE), Experiential Environment (EE), and Relational Environment (RE)—that preserves consciousness as a fundamentally human domain while permitting AI-mediated interpretation under strict constraints. The framework ensures AI systems remain epistemically and ontologically subordinate to human-defined consciousness structures, preventing autonomous redefinition of consciousness by artificial agents. Philosophically, this work bridges three critical domains: (1) philosophy of mind, by providing a formal structure for the measurement problem; (2) AI ethics and alignment, by establishing normative boundaries for artificial consciousness research; and (3) philosophy of science, by demonstrating how standards can function as both descriptive and prescriptive frameworks. A-CAIS thus offers not merely a technical specification, but a foundational architecture for how philosophy, science, and governance must coordinate when consciousness itself becomes measurable and operationalizable by non-human systems

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
