Research on Copyright Issues of User-Generated Content Websites: A Case Study of YouTube
「由使用者提供內容」網站(User-Generated Content Websites)是指平凡大眾利用數位科技參與並分享創作內容的網站,以部落格、影音分享網站為典型。該類型網站的出現是由於社會上長期存在的分享資訊、凝聚社群、表現自我的需求、以及資訊科技進步互相作用的結果。類型網站的興盛標誌了網路使用者自主權的崛起。其存在不僅造成言論自由市場蓬勃發展,更重要的是使網路使用者有了藉由發表言論來實現自我的機會。然而該類型網站也引起多件著作權人控告網站業者以及網路使用者侵害著作權的案例。同時,著作權人的進攻也引起網路自由運動團體起身代表受指控的網路使用者反控著作權人侵害言論自由。一波「由使用者提供內容」網站訴訟爭議的出現,究竟代表了什麼意義?對於現行著作權法又會產生何種影響?本文以YouTube相關案件為例,探討美國現行著作權法適用於該類型網站的問題。並認為,該類型網站與以往規避甚至刻意挑戰著作權法的網路服務提供者不同。對於其尊重並維護著作權的態度、以及出於公共利益考量所發展出不得不然的運作模式與商業模式,應該給予更公正的法律評價,現行著作權法間接侵權責任以及安全港條款構成要件應予修正。又對於該類型網站使用者的言論自由,著作權法中原有「合理使用」條款以為保障。然而通知取下制度的濫用與誤用以及合理使用判斷標準的模糊不清造成網路言論的寒蟬效應。又合理使用認定範圍寬窄將影響到網路使用者的言論自由是否真正獲得保障,因此合理使用條款適用時仍不能避免美國憲法第一修正案的檢驗。User-Generated Content (UGC) websites refer to the websites the content of which is provided by internet users. Blogs and video-sharing websites are typical UGC websites. The advent of UGC websites is the consequence of interaction between innovations of new technology and the long-existing social needs of information-sharing, community-forming, and self-expression. he prosperity of UGC websites marked the rise of internet users’ autonomy. These websites not only further the development of market place of ideas, but also provide internet users with the opportunities of self-fulfillments. These websites has also led to many copyright infringement lawsuits against website owners and internet users. At the same time, many internet freedom groups and internet users are fighting back against copyright holders, asking for freedom of speech. hat are the implications of these lawsuits? Will they have any impact on the existing copyright law? This thesis studies the legal issues of the YouTube case, and concludes that those websites deserve positive legal judgments since they are different from traditional internet service providers for their public interest considerations and good attitude toward copyright protection. The existing elements of secondary liability for copyright infringement and the DMCA safe harbor provisions should be amended. Furthermore, although copyright law already has the “fair use” doctrine to protect freedom of speech, the abuse or misuse of takedown notices and the ambiguity of fair use doctrine lead to chilling effects of internet speech. Thus, “fair use” doctrine does not ensure the freedom of speech of internet users, and the enforcement of copyright law is still under the first amendment scrutiny.第一章 緒論 1一節 前言 1一項 法意識-實體世界與數位世界的不等號 1二項 互補或擷抗-著作權與言論自由 2三項 雙贏局面或零合遊戲? 2二節 研究背景 3一項 「由使用者提供內容」網站崛起 3二項 影音分享網站招致訴訟 4三項 現行法令規範引發爭議 5四項 台灣引進相關立法例 6三節 問題意識 6四節 研究範圍 7五節 本文架構 7二章「由使用者提供內容」網站概述 9一節 「由使用者提供內容」網站之定義、成因與特徵 9一項 「由使用者提供內容」網站之定義 9二項 「由使用者提供內容」網站之成因 10一款 社會需求 10二款 資訊科技進步 10三款 經濟誘因 11四款 法令鬆綁 11三項 「由使用者提供內容」網站之特徵 12一款 OECD所歸納四項特徵 12二款 使用者參與 14二節 網路使用者自主權崛起的過程 14一項 使用者參與網路內容的時代 15二項 網路完全取代個人電腦的時代 15三節 「由使用者提供內容」網站個案簡介-YouTube 16一項 成立目的 16一款 成立動機 16二款 基本精神 17二項 運作模式 18一款 網站技術 18二款 使用行為 18三項 商業模式 18一款 網站廣告 18二款 娛樂媒體結盟 19四節 「由使用者提供內容」網站法律問題初探 20例:Viacom v.

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
Variations on the Author
“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
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
We 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
