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
Quantum Discrimination of Noisy Photon-Subtracted Squeezed States
Quantum state discrimination (QSD) is crucial for various applications of quantum sensing, communications, and computing. This paper characterizes the binary QSD with photon-subtracted squeezed states (PSSSs) affected by thermal noise during state preparation. First, noisy PSSSs are characterized and their Fock representation is given. Then, the binary QSD problem with noisy PSSSs affected by phase diffusion is presented. Finally, it is shown the suitability of PSSSs for QSD-based applications, especially when employing quantum states with unbalanced prior probabilities
