i-ReSISTANT: Intelligent Research Assistance System
No full text在研究者進行研究時，時間管理是一個非常關鍵的因素。未經組織化以及不適當的資訊可能會導致研究者必須耗費更多精力來做一個正確的決策。在本篇論文中，我們採用 I-centric 的概念，設計一個以 i-ReSISTANT 命名的系統，提供智慧型研究輔助服務。此外，我們也介紹一個透過使用者的情境和行為來加強推薦系統效能的方法。這個方法的目的為提供更為個人化以及適當的推薦，如Call-For-Papers (CFP) 的推薦。此外，為了提供旅行安排的協助給會議參與者，我們的系統利用 Open API 的特性，建立一個讓服務提供者皆有同等機會進入的開放市場。開放市場的主要目的是為了建立服務提供者之間的競爭關係。這個競爭關係可以提升服務的品質。我們使用最新的 HTML5 技術，以及重用 Google，Facebook 和 Yahoo 在網路上所提供的資源與服務來開發 i-ReSISTANT 的系統原型。它利用 Ajax 技術，提供輕量級的平台，可以運行在能提供瀏覽器的設備中。此外，我們比較不同的程式風格，以加強在 Web SQL database 的資料處理。此原型廣泛使用雲端服務，使得它具有效率且低成本地提供智慧型的研究輔助之服務。Time management is a crucial for researchers to accomplish their researches. Unorganized and inappropriate information may lead researchers to spend more effort to make a correct decision. In this thesis, we design a system called i-ReSISTANT that adopt the I-centric concept for providing intelligent research assistance services. Moreover, we introduce an approach to enhance the recommendation performance by utilizing the user’s context. This approach is aimed to deliver more personalized and adapted services such as Call-For-Papers (CFP) recommendation. Furthermore, to provide assistance in traveling for conference attendees, our system provides Open API to establish the open market. Open market is the market that has the equal opportunity of entry for service providers. The main purpose of open market is to establish the competition between service providers, which can improve the quality of the service that is offered to users. We developed i-ReSISTANT prototype that uses the latest HTML5 technology and reuses the available information and services on Internet from Google, Facebook and Yahoo. It leverages Ajax technology to provide the lightweight platform that can be run in browser supported devices. Furthermore, we investigate different programming styles in order to enhance the data process in the Web SQL database. The prototype extensively use cloud services, which make it efficient and low cost for providing intelligent research assistance services
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
