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
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
Data associated with "A collaborative filtering based approach to biomedical knowledge discovery"
No full textThis is the data set associated with the publication: "A collaborative filtering based approach to biomedical knowledge discovery" published in Bioinformatics.
The data are sets of cooccurrences of biomedical terms extracted from published abstracts and full text articles. The cooccurrences are then represented in sparse matrix form. There are three different splits of this data denoted by the prefix number on the files.
1. All - All cooccurrences combined in a single file
2. Training/Validation - All cooccurrences in publications before 2010 in training, all novel cooccurrences in publication in 2010 go in validation
3. Training+Validation/Test - All cooccurrences in publication upto and including 2010 in training+validation. All novel cooccurrences after 2010 in year by year increments and also all combined together
Furthermore there are subset files which are used in some experiments to deal with the computational cost of evaluating the full set. The associated cuids.txt file containing a link between the row/column in the matrix with the UMLS Metathesaurus CUIDs. Hence the first row of cuids.txt matches up to the 0th row/column in the matrix. Note that the matrix is square and symmetric. This work was done with UMLS Metathesaurus 2016AB.</p
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
PGxMine
No full textThis describes the output files for the PGxMine project. The code for this viewer is available in the PGxMine Github repo if you want to run it independently. Each file is a tab-delimited file with a header, no comments and no quoting.
You likely want pgxmine_collated.tsv if you just want the list of chemical/variant assocations. If you want the supporting sentences, look at pgxmine_sentences.tsv. You can use the matching_id column to connect the two files. If you want to dig further and are okay with a higher false positive rate, look at pgxmine_unfiltered.tsv.
pgxmine_collated.tsv: This contains the chemical/variant associations with citation counts supporting them. It contains the normalized chemical, variant and where appropriate gene names with identifiers for PharmGKB, dbSNP and Entrez.
pgxmine_sentences.tsv: This contains the supporting sentences for the chemical/variant associations in the collated file. Each row is a single supporting sentence for one association. This file contains information on the source publication (e.g. journal, publication date, etc), the actual sentence and the chemical/variant association extracted.
pgxmine_unfiltered.tsv: This is the combined raw output of the createKB.py script across all of PubMed, Pubmed Central Open Access and PubMed Central Author Manuscript Collection. It contains every predicted relation with a prediction score above 0.5. So this may contain many false positives. Each row contain information on the publication (e.g. journal, publication date, etc) along with the sentence and the specific chemical/variant association
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
