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
Efetividade do direito à privacidade na transferência internacional de dados sob a Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados do Brasil
Get PDFGlobalization, combined with advancements in information and communication
technologies, has shifted global economic practices into the virtual realm. This shift
has necessitated the constant cataloging of significant aspects of life, such as
genetic, biometric, racial, sexual orientation, gender, tax, and credit data, among
others. As a result, an invasive economy has emerged, raising legal concerns
regarding its interference with individual freedoms. In light of this context, this work
addresses the following question: Considering the international transfer of data as a
cornerstone of the contemporary economy, is the right to privacy effective in
regulating the cross-border flow of personal data? By analyzing Brazil’s General Data
Protection Law (LGPD) and the Brazilian International Data Transfer Regulation
(ANPD Resolution No. 19/2024), this dissertation aims to investigate the
effectiveness of the right to privacy in the context of international personal data
transfers. The first specific objective is to examine the historical evolution and
foundational principles of the Right to Privacy and Personal Data Protection. The
second specific objective is to conduct a comparative analysis of national, foreign,
and international regulatory frameworks for personal data protection and the right to
privacy. The third specific objective is to identify the legal bases for international
personal data transfers in Brazil.The fourth specific objective is to assess the
effectiveness of the right to privacy for data subjects in Brazil within the context of
international data transfers.The first hypothesis is that an analysis of the fundamental
principles of the Right to Personal Data Protection will provide valuable insights into
the regulation of international data transfers, shedding light on the effectiveness of
the Right to Privacy. The second hypothesis is that an understanding of jurisdictional
aspects, as well as the legal standards of the GDPR and data protection frameworks
in Latin America, will help identify challenges to the effectiveness of the right to
privacy. The third hypothesis is that an examination of Brazil’s General Data
Protection Law (LGPD) will reveal whether the national regulatory framework is
sufficient to safeguard international personal data transfers. The fourth hypothesis is
that an investigation of national, foreign, and international regulatory practices, along
with related concepts, will contribute to determining greater effectiveness for the
Right to Privacy in Brazil.A globalização, aliada às tecnologias de informação e comunicação, transferiu as
práticas econômicas globais para o ambiente virtual. Isso demandou uma
catalogação constante de aspectos consideráveis da vida, como dados genéticos,
biométricos, raciais, de orientação sexual, de gênero, fiscais, de crédito, entre
outros, que levaram a uma economia invasiva, questionada juridicamente acerca da
sua intervenção na liberdade dos cidadãos. Dado o contexto apresentado, este
trabalho aborda a seguinte problemática: considerando a transferência internacional
de dados como um vetor da economia contemporânea, há efetividade do direito à
privacidade na regulação dos fluxos internacionais de dados pessoais? Partindo da
análise da Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais (LGPD) e do Regulamento de
Transferência Internacional de Dados do Brasil (Resolução n. 19/2024 da ANPD), a
dissertação tem como objetivo geral investigar a efetividade do direito à privacidade
na transferência internacional de dados pessoais, com os seguintes objetivos
específicos: (I) compreender os pressupostos e a evolução histórica do Direito à
Privacidade e da Proteção de Dados Pessoais; (II) fazer uma análise comparativa
dos marcos regulatórios nacionais, estrangeiros e internacionais de proteção de
dados pessoais e do direito à privacidade; (III) diagnosticar as bases legais da
transferência internacional de dados pessoais no Brasil; (IV) compreender a
efetividade do direito à privacidade dos titulares de dados do Brasil na Transferência
Internacional de Dados. O trabalho detém as seguintes hipóteses: I) o estudo dos
postulados fundamentais do Direito à Proteção de Dados Pessoais proporcionará
insights valiosos para a regulação das transferências internacionais de dados,
revelando aspectos cruciais sobre a efetividade do Direito à Privacidade; (II) a
compreensão dos aspectos jurisdicionais envolvidos, bem como dos padrões
jurídicos do GDPR e dos padrões de dados da América Latina, permitirá identificar
dilemas de efetividade do direito à privacidade; (III) A análise da Lei Geral de
Proteção de Dados Pessoais do Brasil exporá se a abordagem regulatória nacional é
suficiente ou não para proteger a transferência internacional de dados pessoais; (IV)
a investigação das práticas regulatórias nacionais, estrangeiras e internacionais e de
concepções aliadas auxiliarão na determinação de uma maior efetividade para o
Direito à Privacidade no Brasil.São Cristovã
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
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.
