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
Development of Women's Outerwear for Amanjeda Group OÜ
No full textDiplomitöö eesmärgiks oli naiste ülerõivaste arendus ettevõttele Amanjeda Group OÜ. Mudelid said kavandatud koos ettevõtte disaneri Katrin Kuldmaga. Mudelid on loodud Amanjeda sügis/talv 2018 kollektsiooni jaoks. Esimene mudeli näol on tegu tepitud sulejopega ICY ning teise mudeli puhul on tegu keep-mantliga HELSINKI. Käesolev töö jagunes kuueks peatükiks, mis jagunesid omakorda alapeatükkideks. Peatükid on järjestatud vastavalt toodete valmistamise järjekorras. Esimeses peatükis tutvustati lühidalt ettevõtet, mille tarbeks mudelid valmistati. Esitati mudelite tööjoonised ning tehnilised kirjeldused. Seejärel kirjeldati mudelite valmistamiseks valitud õmblusmaterjale ja furnituure. Diplomitöö teine peatükk puudutab mudelite põhi- ja moekohaste lõigete valmistamist. Kirjeldati põhilõigete valmistamise metoodikat ning soovitud moekohaste lõigete saavutamist. Kolmandas peatükis kirjeldati lekaalide valmistamist. Koostati lekaalide loetelu ning valmistati mõlema mudeli baassuurustele lekaalid. Samuti sai tutvuda tehnilise paljundusega. Diplomitöö neljandas peatükis esitati mudelite sõlmede tehnoloogiline töötlemine läbilõike jooniste näol. Samuti toodi välja tehnoloogilised iseärasused. Viiendas peatükis loodi mudelite baassuurustele paigutusjoonised ning lühidalt kirjeldati omahinna kujunemist. Peatükis arvutati kui suur on esiknäidise ja ka kõikide suuruste koos valmistamiseks kangakulu. Käesoleva töö viimasest peatükist on võimalik leida mudelite tootekaardid. Tootekaartidele märgiti vajalik info toote valmistamiseks. Loetleti üles kõik toote valmistamiseks valitud materjalid ja furnituurid. Keerukamatest tehnoloogilistest sõlmedest on tootekaardil ka läbilõikejoonised. Lõputöö koostamisel kasutati Lectra programme Modaris V7R2, Kaledo Style V4R1, Marker Manager V6R1, Diamino V5R4.The purpose of this diploma thesis was the development of women’s outerwear for the company Amanjeda Group OÜ. The models were designed together with the company’s designer Katrin Kuldma. The models were made for Amanjeda’s autumn/winter 2018 collection. The first model can be described as a quilted jacket and the other model is a cape-coat. This thesis is divided into six chapters, which in turn are divided into sub-chapters. The chapters are sorted in accordance with the preparation order of the products. The first chapter gives a short overview of the company for whom the models were made. After that, the models are described in writing and, which is followed by their technical drawings. At the end of the chapter, chosen sewing materials and other supplies are introduced. The second chapter of the diploma thesis concerns the preparation of basic and fitted patterns. It describes the methodology of preparing the basic patterns and the desired fitted patterns. The third chapter describes the preparation of master patterns. A list of master patterns was prepared and the master patterns of basic sizes were made for both models. In addition, the chapter gives the opportunity to see the technical grading. The fourth chapter of the diploma thesis brings out the technical processing of garments in the form of cross-section drawings. The fifth chapter shows the marker making for the basic sizes of the models and describes briefly the development of the production cost. In this chapter, the author calculates the cost of fabric necessary for the preparation of the specimen as well as the cost of fabric for bigger production. The last chapter provides the technical cards of the models. The technical cards indicate the information necessary for the preparation of the product. It lists all the chosen materials and other supplies used for the preparation of the product. The technical card also presents the cross-section drawings of the more complicated seams. For this diploma thesis, the following Lectra programmes were used: Modaris V7R2, Kaledo Style V4R1, Marker Manager V6R1 and Diamino V5R4
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn 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.
