    Machairodontini GILL 1872

    TRIBE MACHAIRODONTINI GILL, 1872 Remarks: Most recent authors use Homotheriini to refer to the scimitar-toothed cat, including, e.g. Amphimachairodus, Homotherium, Lokotunjailurus Werdelin, 2003 Xenosmilus Martin et al., 2000, and sometimes Machairodus Kaup, 1833 (Turner & Antón, 1997; Werdelin et al., 2010). When Machairodus is included in this tribe, which is adopted here, the correct tribe name should then be Machairodontini Gill, 1872. In addition to the abovementioned genera, and the new genus described below, some smaller-sized species, e.g. derived species of Paramachaerodus like P. maximiliani McKenna & Bell, 1997, have a potential affinity to this tribe.Published as part of Jiangzuo, Qigao, Li, Shijie, Fu, Jiao, Duan, Shiqi Wang Xueping Ji Mei & Che, Decai, 2022, Fossil Felidae (Carnivora: Mammalia) from the Yuanmou hominid site, southern China (Late Miocene) and its significance in the living environment of the fossil ape, pp. 1156-1174 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 196 on page 1158, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab116, http://zenodo.org/record/732371

    Metailurini Turner & Anton 1997

    TRIBE METAILURINI Remarks: Our concept of Metailurini is largely similar to that used by Turner & Antón (1997) and Werdelin et al. (2010), only that we found most species of Paramachaerodus similar to Metailurus, and these two genera are likely to be closely related. Paramachaerodus does not show a closer affinity to Smilodontini than Metailurus does. The two derived species of Paramachaerodus have serrated canines and V-shaped incisors, and are unlikely to be ancestral to Smilodontini. Their positions are in need of further investigation.Published as part of Jiangzuo, Qigao, Li, Shijie, Fu, Jiao, Duan, Shiqi Wang Xueping Ji Mei & Che, Decai, 2022, Fossil Felidae (Carnivora: Mammalia) from the Yuanmou hominid site, southern China (Late Miocene) and its significance in the living environment of the fossil ape, pp. 1156-1174 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 196 on page 1163, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab116, http://zenodo.org/record/732371

    A MPHIMACHAIRODUS CF. HORRIBILIS S CHLOSSER, 1903 (FIG. 3; TABLE 1) Machairodus sp., Qi, 2006: 174. Material: RV2006048 (PDYV1222), an isolated p4, from Locality 9903, Leilao. Description: This p4 has a large size. The tooth is slightly widened posteriorly. The anterior accessory cuspid is distinctly larger than the posterior one. There is a tiny additional cuspid before the anterior accessory cuspid. The posterior cingulid is cusp-like.Published as part of Jiangzuo, Qigao, Li, Shijie, Fu, Jiao, Duan, Shiqi Wang Xueping Ji Mei & Che, Decai, 2022, Fossil Felidae (Carnivora: Mammalia) from the Yuanmou hominid site, southern China (Late Miocene) and its significance in the living environment of the fossil ape, pp. 1156-1174 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 196 on page 1158, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab116, http://zenodo.org/record/732371

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    Get PDF
    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
