Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Efficient k-mer based curation of raw sequence data: application in Drosophila suzukii
No full textPreprint version 2 of this article (Gautier, 2023a, https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.04.18.537389) has been peer-reviewed and recommended by Peer Community In Genomics (Galtier, 2023, https://doi.org/10.24072/pci.genomics.100244).The Clark and Clark-l k–mer databases and the (cleaned) assemblies used to build them have been made publicly available from the Data INRAE repository (Gautier, 2023b, https ://doi.org/10 . 57745/HYTIBH). The compressed archive also contains scripts used to run Clark and Clark-l analyses and parse the results. All sequencing data analyzed in this study are publicly available under the accession IDs reported in Tables 1, S2 and S3. Supplementary Tables S1 to S5 and Supplementary Figures S1 to S5 are available online with the latest preprint version of the manuscript (Gautier, 2023a, https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.04.18.537389).International audienceSeveral studies have highlighted the presence of contaminated entries in public sequence repositories, calling for special attention to the associated metadata. Here, we propose and evaluate a fast and efficient k–mer-based approach to assess the degree of mislabeling or contamination. We applied it to high-throughput whole-genome raw sequence data for 236 Ind-Seq and 22 Pool-Seq samples of the invasive species Drosophila suzukii. We first used Clark software to build a dictionary of species-discriminating k–mers from the curated assemblies of 29 target drosophilid species (including D. melanogaster, D. simulans, D. subpulchrella, or D. biarmipes) and 12 common drosophila pathogens and commensals (including Wolbachia). Counting the number of k–mers composing each query sample sequence that matched a discriminating k–mer from the dictionary provided a simple criterion for assignment to target species and evaluation of the entire sample. Analyses of a wide range of samples, representative of both target and other drosophilid species, demonstrated very good performance of the proposed approach, both in terms of run time and accuracy of sequence assignment. Of the 236 D. suzukii individuals, five were reassigned to D. simulans and eleven to D. subpulchrella. Another four showed moderate to substantial microbial contamination. Similarly, among the 22 Pool-Seq samples analyzed, two from the native range were found to be contaminated with 1 and 7 D. subpulchrella individuals, respectively (out of 50), and one from Europe was found to be contaminated with 5 to 6 D. immigrans individuals (out of 100). Overall, the present analysis allowed the definition of a large curated dataset consisting of > 60 population samples representative of the worldwide genetic diversity, which may be valuable for further population genetics studies on D. suzukii. More generally, while we advocate careful sample identification and verification prior to sequencing, the proposed framework is simple and computationally efficient enough to be included as a routine post-hoc quality check prior to any data analysis and prior to data submission to public repositories
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
