Bridging the gap: navigating the skills shortage through artificial intelligence
No full textThe skills shortage crisis is a multifaceted challenge impacting industries globally, prompting a need for collaborative and innovative solutions. At the same time, private, public, and non-profit organisations need significant changes to satisfy customers' and users' needs, given the growing demand for services and the limited availability of human resources.
Recently, the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based tools started to attract growing interest, and both scholars and practitioners question the impact AI will have on the labour market and corporate processes.
With its automation capacity, AI presents an opportunity to augment human capabilities, optimise workflows, and bridge the existing skill gaps. By strategically integrating AI solutions, organisations can enhance efficiency, reduce manual workloads, and unlock the untapped potential of their workforce. The main expected consequence of a widespread introduction of AI in private and public organisations is a reduction of human activities in some fields and an increase in others. At the same time, implementing AI-based tools and solutions comes with risks and critical aspects.
This paper explores AI's transformative potential in addressing the skills shortage within private, non-profit, and public sector organisations. Concurrently, this paper explores the risks, benefits, and various implications of using AI in addressing the skill crisis and its potential impact on the skill gap.
The study employs a systematic literature review rooted in intellectual capital theory to comprehensively understand how AI can serve as a transformative tool in mitigating skills shortages, investigating both advantages and critical aspects. The framework will be helpful for private, public and non-profit organisations to shape future strategies for recruiting human resources and restructuring internal processes
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
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
