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
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
IMPLEMENTASI METODE QUALITY CONTROL CIRCLE (QCC) UNTUK MENURUNKAN JUMLAH NG PIN PENDEK PADA MESIN PIN CUTTING DI PT. XYZ
Get PDFDi dalam perusahaan, terdapat banyak masalah terkait kualitas, sehingga
diperlukan solusi untuk mencapai kualitas yang diharapkan. Salah satu solusinya
adalah dengan menerapkan metode Quality Control Circle (QCC). QCC adalah
sebuah sistem pengendalian kualitas melalui metode 8 langkah dengan sistem
perbaikan berkesinambungan atau kaizen. PT. XYZ merupakan perusahaan
manufaktur otomotif di Indonesia yang berlokasi di Bogor, Jawa Barat. Salah satu
produk dari perusahaan otomotif ini adalah pin diameter 4 mm dan pin diameter 2
mm. Short pin adalah kondisi dimana produk pin yang dihasilkan oleh mesin pin
cutting memiliki dimensi dibawah standar yang sudah ditetapkan. Standar dimensi
pin adalah 9 mm dengan toleransi +0 mm dan -0,15 mm. Efek dari pin pendek ini
adalah dapat mengakibatkan mesin stop pada bagian assy, kerusakan tools dan
membuat efisiensi menurun. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk Menganalisa kecacatan
produk pin diameter 2 mm, Mengetahui faktor-faktor penyebab kecacatan produk
pin 2 mm dan Memberikan usulan perbaikan untuk mengurangi kecacatan produk
pin 2 mm menggunakan metode Quality Control Circle (QCC). Penelitian ini
menggunakan metode Quality Control Circle (QCC), yang didalamnya terdapat 8
Step for Problem Solving dan 7 Quality Control (QC) Tools. Berdasarkan analisa
kondisi ada yang dilakukan terhadap No Good (NG) Pin pendek menggunakan
faktor 4M+1E adalah dari faktor material dan methode. Dengan menggunakan
bantuan diagram sebab-akibat (fishbone), dapat diketahui akar penyebab terjadinya
NG Pin Pendek adalah tidak adanya periode waktu pembersihan cutting unit,
pengecekan secara visual atau subjektif dan straightening model forming. Usulan
perbaikan yang dilakukan guna mengurangi No Good (NG) Pin pendek yaitu
membuat Jig center Cutting Round Blade Block (CRBB) & Cutiing Round Blade
Slide (CRBS), Menambahkan periode waktu pembersihan di Work instruction (WI)
dan mengganti bentuk straightener dari deformed menjadi roller.

Within the company, there are many problems related to quality, so solutions
are needed to achieve the expected quality. One solution is to apply the Quality
Control Circle (QCC) method. QCC is a quality control system using an 8-step
method with a continuous improvement system or kaizen. PT. XYZ is an automotive
manufacturing company in Indonesia located in Bogor, West Java. One of the
products from this automotive company is a 4 mm diameter pin and a 2 mm diameter
pin. Short pin is a condition where the pin product produced by a pin cutting
machine has dimensions below the established standards. The standard pin
dimensions are 9 mm with a tolerance of +0 mm and -0.15 mm. The effect of this
short pin is that it can cause the machine to stop at the assembly, damage tools and
reduce efficiency. This research aims to analyze defects in 2 mm diameter pin
products, find out the factors that cause defects in 2 mm pin products and provide
suggestions for improvements to reduce defects in 2 mm pin products using the
Quality Control Circle (QCC) method. This research uses the Quality Control
Circle (QCC) method, which contains 8 Steps for Problem Solving and 7 Quality
Control (QC) Tools. Based on the condition analysis carried out on the short NG
Pin using factors 4M+1E, namely material and method factors. By using the help
of a cause-and-effect (fishbone) diagram, it can be seen that the root cause of Short
NG Pins is the absence of a time period for cleaning the cutting unit, checking
visually or subjectively and straightening the forming model. Proposed
improvements made to reduce short NG Pins are making the Jig center Cutting Round Blade Block (CRBB) & Cutiing Round Blade Slide (CRBS), adding a
cleaning time period at Work instruction (WI) and changing the shape of the
straightener from deformed to rolle
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.
