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
Uloga ministarstva pomorstva, prometa i infrastrukture
Get PDFMinistarstvo pomorstva, prometa i infrastrukture u Republici Hrvatskoj obavlja upravne i ostale poslove kao što su mjere zaštite Jadranskog mora, otoka te priobalja, razvoj politike i upravljanje otocima, zaštita mora od onečišćenja s brodova, te predlaže strategiju razvoja svih vidova promet. Ministarstvo mora, prometa i infrastrukture 2011. godine promijenilo je naziv u Ministarstvo pomorstva, prometa i infrastrukture. Ministarstvo se sastoji od kabineta ministra, glavnog tajništva, samostalne službe za unutarnju reviziju, samostalne službe za odnose s javnošću te samostalne službe za europske poslove.The Ministry of Maritime Affairs, Transport and Infrastructure in the Republic of Croatia carries out administrative and other activities such as measures of protection of the Adriatic Sea, islands and coastal areas, policy development and management of the islands, protection of the sea from ship pollution etc. It also proposes a strategy for development of all aspects of transport. Ministry of the Sea , Transport and Infrastructure changed its name in 2011. To Ministry of Maritime Affairs, Transport and Infrastructure. The ministry consists of the Cabinet of the Minister, the General Secretariat, the Independent Internal Audit Service, the Independent Public Relations Services and the Independent Service for European Affairs
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
PRAĆENJE LOKACIJA OPREME POMOĆU TEHNOLOGIJE RADIOFAROVA
No full textCilj ovog rada je pokazati kako pomoću tehnologije radiofarova (engl. beacons) možemo pratiti lokaciju opreme, prije svega u zatvorenim prostorima, iako nema prepreka da se isti princip može primijeniti i na otvorenom. Radiofarovi su temeljeni na BLE1 tehnologiji i često se koriste u kombinaciji s mobilnim uređajima. Hipoteza koju želimo dokazati je da se pomoću ovakvog pristupa može uspješno locirati dio opreme do preciznosti od 1 m i na taj način znatno efikasnije pratiti njihovu trenutnu i povijesnu lokaciju.
Za određivanje pozicije koristit će se trilateracija, jednako kao što se koristi i u GPS2-u, samo što će se u ovom radu koristiti snaga signala (RSSI3). Ovakav rad može se i komercijalizirati, primjerice, za praćenje lokacije skupljeg alata u nekom tvorničkom postrojenju.
Kao praktični dio rada dizajnirat će se i izraditi softverski i hardverski sustav. Nakon završetka, testiranje hipoteze će se napraviti u konkretnim uvjetima (funkcionalnosti sustava će se testirati u prostorima Algebra LAB-a i drugim adekvatnim prostorima za testiranje sustava).
Naposljetku će se analizirati preciznosti sustava, a hipoteza će ili biti potvrđena ili će se dati smjernice za poboljšanje preciznosti sustava.The goal of this master thesis is to show how to track the location of the equipment using the technology of beacons both in closed spaces and outdoors if there are no obstacles. Beacons are based on BLE technology and are often used with mobile devices. The hypothesis that is to be proved is that using this technology it is possible to successfully locate the equipment with the precision of 1 meter and to track the current and previous location more efficiently. The location is determined via the trilateration, the method used in GPS, with the difference that in this case the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is used. This method can be commercialized for example for tracking the location of the expensive equipment in a factory plant.
In the practical part of the thesis, the software and hardware will be designed. After finishing, the hypothesis will be tested in real conditions (Algebra LAB and other adequate spaces for testing). In the end, the precision of the system will be tested and according to the results, the hypothesis will be confirmed or the guidelines will be given to improve the system
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
