Modalities in homotopy type theory
No full textUnivalent homotopy type theory (HoTT) may be seen as a language for the
category of -groupoids. It is being developed as a new foundation for
mathematics and as an internal language for (elementary) higher toposes. We
develop the theory of factorization systems, reflective subuniverses, and
modalities in homotopy type theory, including their construction using a
"localization" higher inductive type. This produces in particular the
(-connected, -truncated) factorization system as well as internal
presentations of subtoposes, through lex modalities. We also develop the
semantics of these constructions

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
Computer Verified Exact Analysis (Tutorial)
Full text linkThis tutorial will illustrate how to use the Coq proof assistant to implement effective and provably correct computation for analysis. Coq provides a dependently typed functional programming language that allows users to specify both programs and formal proofs.
We will introduce dependent type theory and show how it can be used to develop both mathematics and programming. We will show how to use dependent type theory to implement constructive analysis. Specifically we will cover how to implement effective real numbers and effective integration.
This work will be done using the Coq proof assistant. The tutorial will cover how to use the Coq proof assistant. Attendees are encouraged to download and install Coq 8.2 from {\tt http://coq.inria.fr/download} and also download and make the full system of C-CoRN from {\tt http://c-corn.cs.ru.nl/download.html} beforehand
Constructive algebraic integration theory without choice. Dagstuhl proceedings
No full textAbstract. We present a constructive algebraic integration theory. The theory is constructive in the sense of Bishop, however we avoid the axiom of countable, or dependent, choice. Thus our results can be interpreted in any topos. Since we avoid impredicative methods the results may also be interpreted in Martin-L type theory or in a predicative topos in the sense of Moerdijk and Palmgren. We outline how to develop most of Bishop’s theorems on integration theory that do not mention points explicitly. Coquand’s constructive version of the Stone representation theorem is an important tool in this process. It is also used to give a new proof of Bishop’s spectral theorem
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
