MeSH term explosion and author rank improve expert recommendations
No full textInformation overload is an often-cited phenomenon that reduces the productivity, efficiency and efficacy of scientists. One challenge for scientists is to find appropriate collaborators in their research. The literature describes various solutions to the problem of expertise location, but most current approaches do not appear to be very suitable for expert recommendations in biomedical research. In this study, we present the development and initial evaluation of a vector space model-based algorithm to calculate researcher similarity using four inputs: 1) MeSH terms of publications; 2) MeSH terms and author rank; 3) exploded MeSH terms; and 4) exploded MeSH terms and author rank. We developed and evaluated the algorithm using a data set of 17,525 authors and their 22,542 papers. On average, our algorithms correctly predicted 2.5 of the top 5/10 coauthors of individual scientists. Exploded MeSH and author rank outperformed all other algorithms in accuracy, followed closely by MeSH and author rank. Our results show that the accuracy of MeSH term-based matching can be enhanced with other metadata such as author rank
El Caribe, un mar de lo diverso: a propósito de Boat People de Mayra Santos-Febres
No full textIn Boat People (2005), Afro-Puerto Rican writer Mayra Santos-Febres delves into the multiplicities of the Caribbean and its poetic possibilities through an incisive look at the Caribbean Sea and its inter-island migrations. This hydric space, characterized by political, historical, and cultural tensions, is the diffraction point for bodies in migration. We explore how the collection challenges single-rooted identities and navigates chaotic territories that resonate primarily with Édouard Glissant’s notion of the poetics of diversity. Santos-Febres creates a poetic body that highlights fragmented identities, questions Caribbean fraternity, and attempts to recover a collective memory beyond any space-time logic, while immersing itself in the polyvalences of the Caribbean and its sea.En el poemario Boat People (2005), la escritora afropuertorriqueña Mayra Santos-Febres profundiza en las multiplicidades del Caribe y sus posibilidades poéticas a partir de una mirada incisiva al mar Caribe y a las migraciones indocumentadas entre las islas. Este espacio hídrico, caracterizado por las tensiones políticas, históricas y culturales, conforma el lugar de difracción de los cuerpos en migración. Exploramos cómo el poemario desafía las identidades de raíz única y navega por territorios caóticos que resuenan, principalmente, con la noción de la poética de la diversidad de Édouard Glissant. Santos-Febres crea un cuerpo poético que visibiliza las identidades escindidas, cuestiona la hermandad caribeña e intenta recuperar una memoria colectiva más allá de toda lógica espacio-temporal, mientras se sumerge en las polivalencias del Caribe y su mar
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

Estudio Financiero en la Empresa Comercial D-Fasil ubicado en la Parroquia Febres Cordero
No full textThe financial study of the commercial company D-Fasil of the Febres Cordero parish allows obtaining relevant data on the internal management of the organization, where an empirical administration is identified in the process of granting credits, handling of goods and human talent, For this reason, the case study aims to analyze the financial situation of the institution, where it is related how the weaknesses described generate influence on the assets, liabilities and assets of the company. The methodology of the investigative process is structured by the types of descriptive and documentary research, which allow obtaining relevant data on the premise under analysis, the deductive method is also used, because the data obtained will allow the development of general conclusions, while the applied technique is the interview supported by means of a questionnaire directed to the owner manager of the organization, where it is obtained as a result in the horizontal financial analysis, that the Total Assets decreases by 45%, the Liabilities in 76%, and lastly, net equity shows a decrease of 45%.The financial study of the commercial company D-Fasil of the Febres Cordero parish allows obtaining relevant data on the internal management of the organization, where an empirical administration is identified in the process of granting credits, handling of goods and human talent, For this reason, the case study aims to analyze the financial situation of the institution, where it is related how the weaknesses described generate influence on the assets, liabilities and assets of the company.

The R&D Tax Incentives
No full textThis article sets out some background information and reflections of the author on the R&D tax incentive schemes included in the Common Corporate Tax Base (CCTB) Proposal. In particular the author analyzes the stimulus to private R&D through ad hoc tax incentives included in the CCTB Proposal and dives into the actual provisions included in the Proposal highlighting the most relevant issues connected with their design and interpretation. Moreover, the author explores the interaction between the CCTB Proposal and the granting by Member States of domestic R&D tax incentives
