I problemi di Hilbert : un programma di ricerca per le “generazioni future”
No full textThe paper offers a survey of the mathematical problems that Hilbert presented
in his lecture at the Second International Congress of Mathematicians (Paris 1900) by
emphasizing in particular the connection of some of them with his contemporary research
on the foundations of geometry and the axiomatic approach to mathematical
theories
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
