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

No full textNational audienceLucile GELY, doctorante en droit public ED 245, Université d'Auvergne Clermont 1 Un bien triste bilan désormais, puisque le Teknival de Marigny-le-Grand dans la Marne se déroulant sur le site de l'ancien aéroport est ce soir endeuillé, deux personnes ont en effet perdu la vie lors de cette manifestation. » Ainsi titraient la plupart des médias le 2 mai 2005 au soir, il y a presque onze ans. La réputation des raves-parties laisse souvent l'opinion publique croire deux ou trois overdoses ont lieu chaque jour durant ce type de rassemblement, mais en vérité les morts y sont plutôt rares, voire assez exceptionnelles. Si le Teknival de 2005 a vraisemblablement causé la mort d'un individu du fait d'un dangereux cocktail de drogues, d'alcool et de médicaments ; il semble que la deuxième victime de ces fêtes ait succombé des suites d'une allergie causée par des chenilles urticantes. Comme il nous serait sans doute très difficile de vous décrire ci-après le cycle de vie de la chenille processionnaire (euproctis chrysorrhoea de son nom latin), il semble plus opportun d'aborder avec vous les risques, dangers et complexités que fait naître en droit français la pratique de ces raves-parties, teknival et autres rassemblements festifs musicaux. Tout d'abord, il convient de définir ce qui est entendu par le terme rave-party utilisé dans le sujet. Sur ce point, nous nous en remettrons aux intentions du législateur, qui dans sa loi du 21 janvier 1995 définissait les raves-parties de la manière suivante : « Ces rassemblements […] exclusivement festifs à caractère musical, organisés par des personnes privées dans des espaces qui ne sont pas au préalable aménagés à cette fin, […] répondent à l'ensemble des caractéristiques suivantes : a) Ils donnent lieu à diffusion de musique amplifiée ; b) L'effectif prévisible des personnes présentes sur le lieu du rassemblement dépasse 500 ; c) L'annonce du rassemblement est prévue par voie de presse, affichage, diffusion de tracts ou par tout moyen de communication ou de télécommunication ; d) Le rassemblement est susceptible de présenter des risques pour la sécurité des participants, en raison de l'absence d'aménagement ou de la configuration des lieux. » 1 Vous le voyez donc, la notion de rave-party a été très précisément encadrée par le législateur, qui a déterminé de manière nette ce qui relève de la rave-party ou non. Les deux éléments capitaux de cette définition sont sans doute le caractère uniquement et exclusivement festif de la manifestation, ainsi que la présence musique amplifiée. Sans cette dernière le gouvernement estime qu'il n'y a pas de rave-party. À ce titre « les fêtes qui ne donnent pas lieu à diffusion de musique amplifiée ou celles dont la musique ne constitue qu'un accessoire telles les fêtes de village, n'entrent pas dans le champ d'application de ce dispositif » 2. Outre ces éléments de définition, il convient d'opérer une importante distinction, qui avait fait l'objet des débats de l'Assemblée Nationale lors des discussions du projet de loi relative à la sécurité quotidienne 3. Selon le député Marcel Rogemont, il importait de distinguer deux types de rassemblements festifs : « Le terme de rave-party doit être réservé aux fêtes techno organisées dans le cadre de la loi régissant les spectacles payants, culturels, sportifs, artistiques. Quant aux free-parties, organisations spontanées et gratuites, en marge de la loi, elles posent effectivement problème. » 4 Apparaît alors une première forme de distinction : il existerait des évènements festifs musicaux légaux et d'autres qui ne le sont pas. La distinction est en fait légèrement moins nette, un certain nombre de fêtes techno n'étant pas affiliée à la loi régissant les spectacles et se basant sur un ambitieux principe de gratuité. Cependant, la rave-party est le plus souvent légale, car soumise à un contrôle préalable de la part de l'autorité. Dans ce cas, puisque nous sommes face à un cadre légal clairement établi, pourquoi lier les raves-parties aux Bacchanales ? Les Bacchannales, pour mémoire, sont des fêtes religieuses données en l'honneur de Bacchus, que vous connaissez désormais fort bien depuis que le Professeur Raffray vous en a dressé un brillant et éthylique portrait
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
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
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
