El espacio novelesco en "Entre visillos" de Carmen Martín Gaite y "La salamandra" de Alkiviadis Yanópulos: un estudio comparativo
Every city is a discourse, claimed Barthes. Having already introduced a brief overview of the Spanish and Greek narratives of the 50's, in this article we intend to conduct a comparative analysis of the space representation in two different novels, namely "Entre visillos" of Carmen Martin Gaite, written in 1957, and "I salamántra" of Alkiviadis Yanopoulos written also in 1957. Our aim is to demonstrate that space in literature conveys ideology as well, sometimes without author's awareness.Toda ciudad es un discurso, sostenía Barthes. Nosotros, en este trabajo, tras presentar un breve panorama de las narrativas española y griega de los años '50, nos proponemos realizar un análisis comparativo del tratamiento del espacio novelesco en dos novelas escritas en 1957, esto es, "Entre visillos" de Carmen Martín Gaite y "La salamandra" de Alkiviadis Yanópulos [I salamántra, Alkiviádis Giannópoylos]. Nuestro propósito es demostrar que el espacio novelesco transmite también ideología, a veces sin que el autor se percate de ello
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
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
Dataset of cotton phenology images
The dataset contains labels about the the phenological stages of cotton at the parcel level, generated by in-situ inspections in the region of Orchomenos, Greece, during the cotton cultivation period of 2021 (May-October). We collected 1,285 crop growth ground
observations. We introduce a new collection protocol, assigning up to two phenology labels that represent the primary and secondary growth stage in the field and thus indicate when stages are transitioning. More information about the annotation procedure can be found in the relevant publication "Fuzzy clustering for the within-season estimation of cotton phenology".
Along with the annotations we are publishing a unique dataset of 3,142 images. Each image is named in the following format:
{date}_{id}-{type}.jpg, where "date" is in the format {year}{month}{day} and refer to the exact date the image was captured, "id" is the unique id of a parcel and "type" is one of "O", "A" or "B". "O" refers to a panoramic photo of the entire field, "A" to a photo that is representative of the majority of the plants in the field and "B" to one representative of a minority of plants in the field. For each date and each unique parcel the first two exists always while the latter close-up photo had be captured only when the percentage of the minority class, in terms of area, was deemed significant.

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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
