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
Prvih 70 let Biotehniške fakultete
No full textCelotno leto 2017 smo posvetili častitljivi sedemdesetletnici Biotehniške fakultete. Vse leto so se vrstile prireditve in dogodki, s katerimi smo opozorili na pomen in vlogo naše ustanove na vseh njenih področjih delovanja, od biologije, prehranske in lesne verige, do krajinske arhitekture, od izobraževalnega in raziskovalnega dela do družbeno odgovornega oblikovanja in prenosa znanja. Vrh teh prireditev je bila svečana akademija v Cankarjevem domu.
Biotehniška fakulteta je nastala v časih povojne obnove in je doživela vse družbene in tehnološke spremembe treh generacij. Iz Agronomske fakultete se je postopoma razvila v osrednjo nacionalno ustanovo na multidisciplinarnem področju uporabnih ved o življenju, ki združuje naravoslovne, biotehniške in tudi družboslovne znanosti, za iskanje in širjenje vedenja o življenju od celice do kompleksnih bioloških ekosistemov, od proizvodnje hrane in lesnih izdelkov, do skrbi za naravo in okolje. Zagotavljanje poznavanja bioloških zakonitosti, razumevanje razmerij med okoljem in družbo, varovanje okolja in krajine, varstvo naravne in kulturne dediščine, sonaravna in trajnostna raba naravnih virov, poznavanje temeljnih lastnosti lesa, pridelava in predelava kakovostne hrane ter razvoj sodobne biotehnologije so poslanstvo in jasno zapisani cilji fakultete. V teh sedemdesetih letih smo se iz skromnih predavalnic na Krekovem trgu preselili v razširjeni kampus pod Rožnikom v Ljubljani in Rodico v Domžalah ter vzpostavili pedagoške in raziskovalne objekte po celi Sloveniji.
Pri tem nam je bilo ves čas obstoja in razvoja v močno oporo dejstvo, da smo pomemben sestavni del in ponosna članica Univerze v Ljubljani. Po vseh merilih sodimo med večje in odličnejše članice ljubljanske univerze. Naši sodelavci so pomembno sooblikovali in še vedno sooblikujejo univerzo, z opravljanjem številnih bolj ali manj zahtevnih funkcij, ki so pomembne za njeno normalno delovanje in zagotavljanje razvoja tudi Biotehniške fakultete.
Naše osnovno poslanstvo, naš smisel in obstoj so študentje, njihov razvoj, veščine in znanje, ki ga pridobijo pri nas na fakulteti. Ton fakulteti dajejo odlični in najboljši študentje, z njimi raste tudi fakulteta, in ponosni smo nanje. Diplomanti različnih smeri in nivojev skupaj z doktoranti od nas zahtevajo, da smo zmeraj boljši in odmevnejši. Spodbujamo obšolsko dejavnost, naši študentje prejemajo nagrade na številnih mednarodnih tekmovanjih od IGMa do Ecotrophelije. Skupaj s študenti organiziramo odmevne poletne šole in start up vikende. Naši diplomanti prevzemajo odgovornosti v gospodarskih družbah, znanosti, politiki in družbi.
V zadnjih tridesetih letih je Biotehniška fakulteta naredila odločne korake k znanstveni odličnosti. Imamo odlične posameznike in raziskovalne skupine, ki skoraj vsako leto objavijo rezultate in izsledke raziskav v eni od vrhunskih revij iz edicij Nature ali Science. Dosežke je mogoče še izboljšati, a za dosego tega se mora spremeniti odnos družbe do znanosti, pa tudi sami moramo več narediti za boljšo organizacijo raziskovalnega dela. Za cilj smo si zastavili Biotehniško fakulteto in hkrati Univerzo v Ljubljani uvrstiti med vodilne raziskovalne institucije v regiji in tudi na seznam vodilnih institucij v svetu, ki pokrivajo uporabne vede o življenju in naravno obnovljivih materialih. Eden od korakov k temu cilju je tudi obuditev izhajanja revije Les. Vsi, ki se tako ali drugače ukvarjamo z lesom, lahko s kvalitetnimi prispevki slovenski strokovni javnosti posredujemo najnovejša raziskovalna in strokovna dognanja. Ponovno izdajanje revije Les sovpada z revitalizacijo slovenske lesne in pohištvene industrije. Verjamem, da lahko skupaj prispevamo k boljšemu jutri.
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
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
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
