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
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
Tunisian Political Revolution: A Lesson Learned for Recent Indonesian Politics in Using Social Media
This research discusses about Tunisian Revolution and a lesson learned for recent Indonesian Politics. The fall of Ben Ali is a proof that social media can be a non-military weapon for society in ruining the ruling regime. Social media can create public sphere for Tunisian people in communicating each other, sharing information and even mobilizing the protest over Ben Ali’s regime. This experience gives lesson learned for many country, including Indonesia. Recently, Indonesian people are active in internet, particularly social media, so that Tunisian Revolution experience alerts Indonesian people to always pay attention about that. This research uses qualitative method to gather data and describe the phenomenon by using Critical Theory. This research views that Tunisian experience influences to the government in managing protests in Indonesia, because the policy and regulation about internet and social media occur in Joko Widodo’s administration in order to counter hoaxes, SARA and radicalism.
MACHINE LEARNING FOR DATA CLASSIFICATION IN INDONESIA REGIONAL ELECTIONS BASED ON POLITICAL PARTIES SUPPORT
In this paper, we discuss the implementation of Machine Learning (ML) to predict the victory of candidates in Regional Elections in Indonesia based on data taken from General Election Commission (KPU). The data consist of composition of political parties that support each candidate. The purpose of this research is to develop a Machine Learning model based on verified data provided by official institution to predict the victory of each candidate in a Regional Election instead of using social media data as in previous studies. The prediction itself simply a classification task between two classes, i.e. ‘win’ and ‘lose’. Several Machine Learning algorithms were applied to find the best model, i.e. k-Nearest Neighbors, Naïve Bayes Classifier, Decision Tree (C4.5), and Neural Networks (Multilayer Perceptron) where each of them was validated using 10-fold Cross Validation techniques. The selection of these algorithms aims to observe how the data works on different Machine Learning approaches. Besides, this research also aims to find the best combination of features that can lead to gain the highest performance. We found in this research that Neural Networks with Multilayer Perceptron is the best model with 74.20% of accuracy
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
A Simple Vehicle Counting System Using Deep Learning with YOLOv3 Model
Deep Learning is a popular Machine Learning algorithm that is widely used in many areas in current daily life. Its robust performance and ready-to-use frameworks and architectures enables many people to develop various Deep Learning-based software or systems to support human tasks and activities. Traffic monitoring is one area that utilizes Deep Learning for several purposes. By using cameras installed in some spots on the roads, many tasks such as vehicle counting, vehicle identification, traffic violation monitoring, vehicle speed monitoring, etc. can be realized. In this paper, we discuss a Deep Learning implementation to create a vehicle counting system without having to track the vehicles movements. To enhance the system performance and to reduce time in deploying Deep Learning architecture, hence pretrained model of YOLOv3 is used in this research due to its good performance and moderate computational time in object detection. This research aims to create a simple vehicle counting system to help human in classify and counting the vehicles that cross the street. The counting is based on four types of vehicle, i.e. car, motorcycle, bus, and truck, while previous research counts the car only. As the result, our proposed system capable to count the vehicles crossing the road based on video captured by camera with the highest accuracy of 97.72%.Deep Learning is a popular Machine Learning algorithm that is widely used in many areas in current daily life.

koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We 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
