Risk and need assessment tools e riforma del sistema sanzionatorio: strategie collaborative e nuove prospettive.
No full textL’utilizzo dei software di intelligenza artificiale (IA) nel contesto processuale rappresenta l’ultima evoluzione del travagliato rapporto che lega nuove tecnologie e giurisdizione penale. In sede scientifica e istituzionale sono già stati individuati i pericoli insiti nella tumultuosa rivoluzione in atto.
Il contributo cerca di riflettere sui limiti e sulle potenzialità applicative degli strumenti di intelligenza artificiali utilizzati per stimare il rischio di ricaduta nel reato, per offrire un’alternativa credibile – anzitutto in prospettiva culturale – sia al legislatore, sia a coloro i quali operano a vario titolo nel sistema di giustizia penale
Changes in Indole-3-acetic acid level in micropropagated tissues of Catharanthus roseus L. infected by the agent of the clover phyllody and effect of exogenous auxins on phytoplasma morphology.

No full textThe results of several experiments concerning the presence and composition of alkaloids in different tissues (stems, leaves, roots) of Catharanthus roseus L. plants and explants, healthy and infected by clover phyllody phytoplasmas, are reported. The alkaloids extracted and determined by the reverse phase high-pressure liquid chromatography were vindoline, ajmalicine, serpentine, vinblastine, and vincristine. The total alkaloid concentration was higher in infected plants than in the controls, in particular the increase of vinblastine in infected roots was very significant. The ultrastructural observations of infected roots showed alterations of the cell walls and of the nuclei. These results demonstrate that phytoplasmas, detected in all infected tissues by light fluorescence and transmission electron microscopy, play an important role on secondary metabolism of the diseased plants, modifying both the total content of alkaloids and their ratio
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
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
