ELECTRONIC NOSE: FOR SPOILT MILK DETECTION
Get PDFThe main objective of this project is to build an electronic nose and implement it for desired application. This report is about the study of an electronic nose and its application to differentiate between the spoiled milk with fresh milk. Electronic nose is an electronic instrument that imitates the function of human nose to detect the smell, odors and flavor. Electronic nose has a wide range of applications where one of them is to discriminate foods by their quality. By using an electronic nose, it is possible to differentiate between fresh milk and spoiled milk without even have to risk our health to taste it by ourselves. The milk where it contains certain type of micro bacteria undergoes certain chemical processes which cause it to spoil and release certain gas as results of the process. The scope of this project is to do research about electronic nose, building an electronic nose for our application and perform a data analysis. The method is explained further inside this report and experiment were done to validate the findings in literature review. The experimental results are presented
IMR 665: Management of Audio Visual Records & Archives. Individual Assignment: Article summary / Muhammad Aiman Jamaluddin
No full textSummary of the articles: “Complications in Maintaining Audio Visual Through Digitization and Technologies”
In this era of science and technology, it gives a tough challenge on how personnel could survive in future since many technologies and method was created to makes them good in working, or without them. In this situation, they should choose technologies and methods wisely for sustaining and maintaining audio-visual archives for long term-use. This paper also discusses the evolution of audio visual such as format, technologies used in managing audio-visual, and how technologies can survive in managing audio-visual. This article tries to deal an summary of the present changes that remain certainty experienced in the supervision of audio-visual documentation and those that can be forecast in the future as a result of the migration from analogue to digital information. These tasks are more significantly affected directly towards technological revolution. Following a long-running preservation platform, the majority of the collection has been digitized to archival standards and user copies made which preserve access to the primary document itself
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
