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
Adaptive reuse in context: towards sustainable mixed - use housing in Durban.
No full textMasters Degree. University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban.In this dissertation the process of adaptive reuse – the recycling or rehabilitation of buildings – is
analysed in terms of the tenets of sustainability and place theories as construed in the field of
architecture, as well as within the context of architectural and urban theory and history. The
dissertation demonstrates how different approaches to adaptive reuse result in a sustainable
architecture that is responsive to its context.
Adaptive reuse is the historically normal practice of recycling buildings. Initially, the research focused
on the relationship between old and new buildings; how is the new synthesised with the old, and what
are the values of this relationship? It soon became evident that by today’s definition of sustainability in
architecture, the practice of recycling buildings, and indeed the partial modification of buildings, came
very close to fulfilling the ‘ideologies’ of sustainability. This research paper reconciles the history and
practice of adaptive reuse, with the currently popular theories of sustainability and Place Theory.
The pursuit of sustainability (Chapter One), in terms of architecture and building, results in part from
the forces of rapid urbanisation, impending and/or perceived food, water and resource shortages, and
the linear metabolism of the modernist built environment. A detailed review of related concepts and
theories in Chapter Two, aim at giving the reader a better understanding of the context of adaptive
reuse in this paper. The author has used the concepts and theories as tools for research (in Part I -
Dissertation) and analysis (in Part II - Design).
Chapter Three looks at three approaches to adaptive reuse – conservation, preservation and demolition
– and relates them to the tenets of sustainability, as well as the concepts and theories laid out in
Chapter One and Two. Specifically, each approach to adaptive reuse is contextualised in terms of the
economic, environmental and social agendas of sustainability, which include both quantitative and
qualitative aspects such as eco-efficiency and Place theory respectively.
Chapter Four is a case study of the Bartel Arts Trust (BAT) Centre, Durban, South Africa. The study
provides the historic, cultural and climatic settings, or contexts, of the conservation project, and relates
these contexts to the architect’s approach to adaptive reuse. A carefully designed questionnaire has
been used to identify those qualitative aspects which are otherwise unattainable through interview,
review or perceptual observation. The case study also integrates the concepts and theories which
underpin the topic, thereby contextualising the study in terms of this paper
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
