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
Model of an automated system for close-in defense of a protected platform
No full textU radu je razvijena i implementirana umanjena maketa potpuno automatiziranog sustava za blisku obranu (engl. Point Defense System) namijenjenog za automatsku detekciju i praćenje pokretnih meta i njihovu „neutralizaciju“. U radu je najprije napravljen pregled postojećih automatiziranih sustava za blisku obranu te je dan primjer sustava Goalkeeper. Nakon toga je definiran sustav za praćenje pokretne mete temeljen na LIDAR senzoru, kao i sustav za detekciju i praćenje bliskih meta. Na temelju navedenih specifikacija izrađena je umanjena maketu sustava za automatsko praćenje i razvijena je odgovarajuća programska podršku za odabrani mikrokontrolerski sustav te je rad makete ispitan u laboratorijskim uvjetima.In this bachelor’s thesis a scaled-down model of a fully automated point defense system intended for automatic detection and tracking of moving targets and their "neutralization" has been developed and implemented. The thesis first reviews the existing automated systems for close defense and gives an example of the Goalkeeper system. After that, a system for tracking a moving target based on a LIDAR sensor was defined, as well as a system for detecting and tracking close targets. Based on the above specifications, a scaled-down model of the automatic monitoring system was created, and appropriate software support was developed for the selected microcontroller system, and the model's operation was tested in laboratory conditions
Implementacija Jira Service Desk sustava u organizaciju
No full textU ovom završnom radu zadatak je bio implementirati novi sustav prijave problema u
organizaciju koja se bavi prodajom automobilskih dijelova. Ticketing sustav, odnosno portal
na kojem zaposlenici prijavljuju probleme vezane za nepravilnost u radu ili šalju upite za
novom opremom, neophodan je u svakoj velikoj tvrtki, pa je tako zastarjeli Help Desk sustav
uspješno zamijenila Atlassianova Jira Service Desk.
Potrebno je bilo kreirati različite portale zbog raznovrsnosti problema koji se prijavljuju, te isto
tako postaviti određene grupe ljudi koji te probleme rješavaju te ih dodijeliti na njima potrebne
portale.
Budući da su vlasnici organizacije kupili slovensku organizaciju koja se bavi prodajom
automobilskih guma dodatan izazov bio je uključivanje i njihovih zaposlenika na isti projekt,
a to se odradilo pomoću Okta-e. Tehnologija Okta-e je u mogućnosti sinkronizirati sve usere i
sve grupe iz više različitih Active Directorya (u ovom slučaju dva), odnosno iz dvije različite
domene –> hrvatske i slovenske. Nakon sinkronizacije u Jira-i su grupe korisnika dodane
određenim portalima, ovisno o potrebi vidljivost, te su im isto tako dodijeljena prava –
administrator, tehničar (tehnician) ili korisnik (customer).
Administratori imaju sva prava nad portalima budući da su ih oni i kreirali, tehničari imaju
prava pregledavati i rješavati sve podignute zahtjeve na portalima na koje imaju prava dok
korisnici mogu samo poslati zahtjev
