Nozare, kas Latvijā ir attīstījusies ļoti interesanti, it īpaši pēdējos gados, ir nekustamo īpašumu tirgus un tieši dzīvokļu segments. Dzīvokļu tirgus attīstība principā visus gadus bija novērojama tikai augšupejošā virzienā, bet būtiskas izmaiņas notika pavisam nesen – 2007. gadā, kad pirmo reizi Latvijas vēsturē pēc neatkarības atgūšanas bija novērojams dzīvokļu cenu, pirkuma līguma skaita, izsniegto hipotekāro kredītu daudzuma un citu svarīgu rādītāju samazinājums. Kāpēc tas tā notika, tam, protams, ir vairāki izskaidrojumi, tāpēc šī maģistra darba mērķis ir veikt nekustamo īpašumu tirgus dzīvokļu segmenta analīzi, balstoties uz tirgus attīstības un izpētes teorētiskajiem principiem, lai noskaidrotu visus galvenos faktorus, kas ir ietekmējuši un veicinājuši šādu un ne savādāku dzīvokļu tirgus attīstību un lai varētu izdarīt tirgus nākotnes prognozi.
Maģistra darba pirmajā nodaļā tiek dots teorētiskais ieskats par tirgu un tā attīstības un izpētes galvenajiem nosacījumiem. Tiek noskaidrots, kādi ir parametri, lai tirgus vispār varētu pastāvēt un funkcionēt, kādi ir iespējamie tirgus tipi un veidi, kāds ir tirgus izpētes process un tā nozīme un pēc tam tiek raksturoti visi galvenie tirgus izpētes virzieni. Otrajā nodaļā tiek pētīts dzīvokļu tirgus Rīgā. Analizējot dažādus datus un informāciju, tiek noskaidroti galvenie faktori, kas ir ietekmējuši tirgus attīstību, kādi rādītāji tā ietekmē ir samazinājušies un kādi ir palielinājušies. Pēdējā trešajā nodaļā tiek veikts dzīvokļu tirgus nākotnes attīstības novērtējums, kurā ietilpst gan tirgus krīzes situācijas izvērtējums trijos scenārijos, gan arī tirgus prognoze.
Maģistra darbā izdarītie priekšlikumi ir paredzēti tirgus galvenajiem dalībniekiem – potenciālajiem dzīvokļu pircējiem un pārdevējiem, kā arī Latvijas valsts valdībai un tās pārvaldes institūcijām, kas tieši regulē dzīvokļu, vispārējo nekustamo īpašumu tirgus un Latvijas ekonomikas attīstību.Atis Blinds
Analysis of apartment market development in Riga
Master thesis consist of: 103 pages (without appendixes), 6 tables, 45 images and 1 appendix
The industry that has developed very interesting during the last year is real estate market and especially apartment segment. There was a constant upward development of apartment market for many years. However, year 2007 came with substantial changes in the market. A decrease in prices, number of purchase contracts, amount of issued loans and other figures was observable for the first time in the history of Latvia since retrieval of its independence. There are several reasons behind this fact. Hence, the aim of this master thesis is to conduct analysis of the apartment segment of the real estate market, based on the theoretical principles of market development, in order to find out the most important factors that have influenced such development pattern and make future market forecast.
The first chapter deals with theoretical insight into a market and the main principles of its development and analysis. It is examined what parameters exist and operate, what the possible types of market are, how the process of market analysis looks like as well as what the main directions of market research are. The second chapter deals with apartment market in Riga. By analyzing different data and information, it is examined what the main factors behind the market development are, and which figures have decreased and increased as a result of the future development of the market development. Evaluation of the future development of the apartment market is included in the third chapter, including evaluation of the market crisis in three scenarios as well as market prognosis.
The suggestions made by the master thesis author can be directed towards the market participants – buyers, sellers and the government and involved institutions that have a direct influence on apartment and overall real estate market as well as the economic development of Latvia
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
No full textWe 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
