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
Análise do desempenho de gráficos de controle com regras suplementares de decisão
Get PDFThe most important objectives of industrial and non-industrial companies are related to cost,
time and quality. On the one hand, the control charts represents an important quality tool,
showing if the process is in control or out of control. On the other hand, the Markov chains
can be used with the control charts, modeling the process under analysis. Thus, this research
aims to analyze the performance of control charts with supplementary signaling rules through
the comparison of the average run length. To do so, the process of literature under
investigation was analyzed and modeled through a Markov chain. Following that, the average
run length was calculated for distinct scenarios. The control charts under analysis refer to a
capability index chart with supplementary signaling rule, a
chart with supplementary
signaling rule and a
chart with basic signaling rule. The results obtained allowed the
conduction of two distinct analysis. The first analysis demonstrated that, when it comes to
mean shifts, the calculation complexity resulted from the introduction of the capability index
does not always generate the best results. The second analysis demonstrated that, when it
comes to mean shifts, the calculation complexity resulted from the introduction of the
supplementary signaling rule does in general generate the best results. In some cases the
capability index chart with supplementary signaling rule was the chart with the best
performance among the three under analysis and in other cases the chart with supplementary signaling rule was the chart with the best performance among the three under
analysis. Finally, the results reassured that the control chart does not display good
performance when it comes to small mean shifts.Os objetivos mais importantes das empresas industriais e não industriais se referem a custo,
tempo e qualidade. Por um lado, os gráficos de controle representam uma importante
ferramenta de qualidade, mostrando se o processo está em controle ou fora de controle. Por
outro lado, as cadeias de Markov podem ser usadas em conjunto com os gráficos de controle,
modelando o processo em análise. Desta maneira, a presente pesquisa possui o objetivo de
analisar o desempenho de gráficos de controle com regras suplementares de decisão por meio
da comparação do número médio de amostras até o sinal. Para tal, o processo da literatura sob
investigação foi analisado e modelado através de uma cadeia de Markov. Na sequência, o
número médio de amostras até o sinal foi calculado para cenários distintos. Os gráficos de
controle analisados se referem a um gráfico de índice de capacidade com regra suplementar
de decisão, um gráfico de
com regra suplementar de decisão e um gráfico de
com regra
básica de decisão. Os resultados obtidos permitiram a condução de duas análises distintas. A
primeira análise mostrou que, em se tratando de deslocamentos da média, a complexidade de
cálculo advinda da introdução do índice de capacidade nem sempre produz os melhores
resultados. A segunda análise mostrou que, em se tratando de deslocamentos da média, a
complexidade de cálculo advinda da introdução da regra suplementar de decisão em geral
produz os melhores resultados. Em alguns casos o gráfico de índice de capacidade com regra
suplementar de decisão foi o gráfico com o melhor desempenho entre os três analisados e em
outros casos o gráfico de
com regra suplementar de decisão foi o gráfico com o melhor
desempenho entre os três analisados. Por fim, os resultados reafirmaram que o gráfico de
controle de
não apresenta bom desempenho em se tratando de pequenos deslocamentos na
média
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
