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
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
The Function of Quasimodo, a Character with Disability, in the Construction of a Romantic World in the Novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame
No full textJedno od najvažnijih i najutjecajnijih djela romantizma, i to na razini svjetske književnosti, roman je Zvonar crkve Notre-Dame, najutjecajnijeg romantičara u Francuskoj (i kad je posrijedi teorijski pristup romantizmu i, dakako, kad je riječ o književnom opredmećenju) Victora Hugoa. Tema je ovog, iznimno često ekraniziranog djela preuzeta iz srednjovjekovne povijesti, a najčešća je strategija pri oblikovanju likova crno-bijela (likovi su, pojednostavnjeno rečeno u najvećem broju podijeljeni na dobre i loše, s tim da se u ekstremnim situacijama pisa utječe karikaturalizaciji i grotesknosti (Quazimodo).
Ovaj je završni rad ponajprije usmjeren na iščitavanje onih dijelova teksta koji se referiraju na središnji, groteskni lik zvonara najpoznatije pariške crkve, koja zapravo, predstavlja onu krucijalnu nit koja povezuje sve likove i njihove sudbine., na odnos ostalih likova prema drukčijem pojedincu, ali i svjetine koja predstavlja sliku društva prema invalidnom i nakaznom pojedincu
Conceptual Metaphor in Popular Song Lyrics
No full textU radu se iz teorijsko-metodološke perspektive kognitivne lingvistike analiziraju najčešće konceptualne metafore čiji se konvencionalizirani ostvaraji mogu prepoznati u suvremenim tekstovima domaće popularne glazbe. Neki od tih tekstova pripadaju domeni alternativnoga glazbenoga stvaralaštva, a drugi njegovoj “srednjoj struji”, pa se u središnjem dijelu rada pokušavaju detektirati razlike i sličnosti između tih dviju stvaralačkih domena kada je u pitanju njihovo tretiranje metaforičnosti u okviru pjesničkoga iskaza. Provedene analize utemeljene su na odmaku od tradicionalnoga shvaćanja metafore u pjesničkim tekstovima kao realizacije autorskoga stilističkoga potencijala ili pjesničkoga ukrasa, pa se naglasak u analizi stavlja na njihovu psihološku i fizičku, odnosno univerzalnu iskustvenu i kulturnu utemeljenost, koja i omogućuje njihovu konvencionalnost i razumijevanje u pjesničkim tekstovima
Virtual private network protocols
No full textNa početku rada obrađena je tema o virtualnim privatnim mrežama i tehnologijama koje koriste. Zatim su opisani protokoli virtualnih privatnih mreža implementirani na raznim slojevima OSI modela. Ukratko su opisani protokoli: PPTP, L2F, L2TP, IPsec, TLS rukovanje, IKE (tj. IKEv2). Najdetaljnije je opisan OpenVPN protokol. Na primjeru tog protokola napravljen je praktični rad.Virtual Private Network and technologies they use are described summarily. Virtual private network protocols, such as: PPTP, L2F, L2TP, IPsec, TLS handshake, IKE and IKEv2 are also described summarily. On the other hand OpenVPN protocol is described detailedly. Program implementation is based on OpenVPN protocol
