No full textUn sistema informativo per l'Albergo dei Poveri di Genova
No full textThe field of cultural heritage benefits from the use of Information and Communications Technologies, which can optimize the knowledge process. This fact is crucial for the conservation and the development of the historical built heritage.
The information about an architectural complex is heterogeneous and differs in disciplinary field and the degree of detail: the structured management of this information can support planning, decision-making and monitoring phases.
This paper presents the practical example of an information system applied to the built heritage, in particular to the Albergo dei Poveri in Genoa. A huge number of data and information have been organized in one database, in order to provide a synthesis of the building, acquainted with its complexity, and at the same time allow an in-depth knowledge.
The graphical visualization by means of GIS eases to query the database; the next publishing of the project as a web-GIS will allow to share and release the wide knowledge that different expertises have acquired on the building with a long-time research
Georeferencing of historical iconography for the knowledge of the built heritage
No full textThe purpose of this paper is to show, starting from practical examples, how georeferencing in GIS environment can favour a detailed knowledge of the architectural heritage. This tool works on a large range of images and allows to detect changes not only in the volume of the building but also how it has developed in the surroundings and moreover it can get useful information to understand how particular deteriorations have occurred. The suggested approach wants to be a non-destructive method to analyse the historical building, particularly cheap if a free open-source version is chosen. Furthermore, this technique is understandable even by non-experienced people who can read these results easily, since they are learned through visual language
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
