Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We 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
Letter to the editor: Reply to J. J. Child, Crim. L.R. 2010, 12, 924-932
Responds to J.J. Child's article in this issue criticising the conclusions reach by the author in his article "The conflict between the Serious Crime Act 2007 and section 1(4)(b) Criminal Attempts Act 1981 - a missed repeal?", (Crim. L.R. 2010, 6, 483-488)
Some Comments on the Question Whether Co-occurrence Data Should Be Normalized
In a recent paper in the Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, Leydesdorff and Vaughan assert that raw cocitation data should be analyzed directly, without first applying a normalization like the Pearson correlation. In this report, it is argued that there is nothing wrong with the widely adopted practice of normalizing cocitation data. One of the arguments put forward by Leydesdorff and Vaughan turns out to depend crucially on incorrect multidimensional scaling maps that are due to an error in the PROXSCAL program in SPSS.Multidimensional scaling;Author cocitation analysis;Co-occurrence data;Normalization;PROXSCAL;Pearson correlation

Surveying the reality of semantic image retrieval
An ongoing project is described which seeks to add to our understanding about the real challenge of semantic image retrieval. Consideration is given to the plurality of types of still image, a taxonomy for which is presented as a framework within which to show examples of real ‘semantic’ requests and the textual metadata by which such requests might be addressed. The specificity of subject indexing and underpinning domain knowledge which is necessary in order to assist in the realization of semantic content is noted. The potential for that semantic content to be represented and recovered using CBIR techniques is discussed
