    Vehicle Safety Speed Controller under Driver Fatigue Using Eye Blink Sensor

    Accidents occurred at night time are mainly due to carelessness of human being such as sleepiness. To avoid that we design and develop a control system based on intelligent electronically controlled automotive braking system. It consists of IR transmitter and receiver circuit, control unit, pneumatic breaking system. The IR sensor is used to monitor the eye blink movement. If the eye blink movement varies beyond the normal condition set 3 sec the IR sends the control signal to the breaking system through electronic control unit ECU . Thus the pneumatic breaking system is used to break the system and alerts the driver to not sleep. From this accidents can prevent before it occurs. Chandra Mohan M | Arivazhagan.

    Establishing effective learning activities to facilitate undergraduate professional interaction course / Rajani Chandra Mohan ... [et al.]

    Full text link
    English for Professional Interaction is a course that was designed to prepare final year undergraduates for communicative demands in the workplace. As communication is an essential element in professional socialization, undergraduates preparing to complete their tertiary education are required to do this course to develop their interpersonal skills through communicative language activities modelled on situations in the workplace. However, novice language teachers who lack workplace-based inter-professional practice, face challenges not only in developing teaching content, but also in aligning teaching materials with workplace contexts. This paper explores the utility of developing a variety of methods and materials drawn primarily from sources for improving core interpersonal skills alongside communicative proficiency to help novice ESL teachers/facilitators. Novice ESL teachers refer to teachers in service with less than 5 years of teaching experience. Taking a conceptual approach, it provides insights for content development and illuminates the importance of bridging the gap between university-based inter-professional education and work place-based inter-professional practical experience for L2 novice teachers. Obliquely, it helps L2 undergraduates develop real value for language and proper outlook on communication

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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
