No full textOedignatha mogamoga Marples (figs 367-370, map 20) Oedignatha mogamoga Marples, 1955: 467, figs 6-7, 9-10, ♂, West Samoa. Oedignatha scrobiculata; Saaristo, 1978: 112, figs 109-117, ♂ ♀, Sechelles. Material. — Borneo, Sabah, Kata Kinabalu, in town park “Signal Hill ” 1 ♂. 6 ♀ in leaf litter, 24.vii.1979, 20+ 27.vii.1980 and 16.v.1991, P. R. and C. L. Deeleman. Malaysia, Subang, 1 ♂, palm oil plantation, on the ground, with 0. scrobiculata, 2.xii. 1990. C.L. Deeleman; Penang Hill, 1 ♀, 100 m, 26.vi.1962, E.S. Ross and D.Q. Cavagnaro (CAS). Diagnosis. — Very similar to scrobiculata in general appearance, distinguished from that species by leg colouring and characters in genital organs. The legs are lighter and more contrastingly coloured, patellae of all legs, most strikingly in leg I, lighter than tibia (in scrobiculata the patella and the tibia are homogenous pale brown); this may be used as character by which the species can be discriminated in the field. The apophysis of the male palpal tibia has a long retrolateral, vaguely undulating ridge without indention, the embolus is inserted proximo-medially rather than proximally as in scrobiculata and only one half coil long, the tegular apophysis is larger and more voluminous. The epigyne has thick-walled dark-coloured spermathecae and bursae juxtaposed near the epigastric fold, separated in the middle by a membranous zone. Redescription (Kota Kinabalu).— MALE.

All aspects as in scrobiculata, hump on clypeus somewhat larger, light spots on abdomen and spine formula identical. Leg spination: femora with a small proximal dorsal spine, femur I a prolateral spine distally; tibia I with 2-2-2- 2-2- 2v, tibia II with 2-2-2-2- 2v, tibia III 1 pl, 1rv, tibia 1V with 1-1pv, 0-1rl. metatarsus I with 1-1-1-1-1pv, 1-1-1-1rv, metatarsus II with 2-2-2- 2v, metatarsus III 1 pl, 1rv. metatarsus IV 1-1 -0pl, 1-1-0 rl or 1-0-0 rl.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Hybrid solutions to the feature interaction problem
No full textIn this paper we assume a competitive marketplace where the features are developed by different enterprises, which cannot or will not exchange information. We present a classification of feature interaction in this setting and introduce an on-line technique which serves as a basis for the two novel <i>hybrid</i> approaches presented. The approaches are hybrid as they are neither strictly off-line nor on-line, but combine aspects of both. The two approaches address different kinds of feature interactions, and thus are complimentary. Together they provide a complete solution by addressing interaction detection and resolution. We illustrate the techniques within the communication networks domain
Square Dancing with the Stars to Enhance Dynamic Hirschman Linkages?
No full textIn this Presidential Address, the author takes the reader on a reconnaissance of his life and time as a regional scientist. He points out scenery he found scintillating along the way, hoping that some may pick up the banner and chew on a few of the ideas for a while. He suggests a revisit to Albert O. Hirschman’s notion of key sectors and more empirical analysis related to Marcus Berliant’s and Masahisa Fujita’s notion of knowledge creation and transfer.Presidential Address, San Antonio, Texas, March 29, 2014 (53rd Meetings of the Southern Regional Science Association
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
No full textWe 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
