Wings entirely brownish, crossvein r-m connecting to Rs near wing midlength, apex of R3 bent to costal margin, apical part of vein CuP strongly curving toward wing margin, A 1 straight, noticeably thickened basally. Gonocoxites massive, with large ventromesal protrusion basally and ventral protrusion apically; lobe of gonostylus well developed, apically with 4–5 small teeth on inner surface; clasper of gonostylus small, situated at base of lobe of gonostylus, plate-like, each with thin apical process; aedeagus relatively thin, long and straight, apically bent upward and divided into two short rods.

Distortion of the ULF wave spatial structure upon transmission through the ionosphere
No full textDistortion of the ground-based spatial structure of ULF waves is described in detail using analytical and numerical models of the resonant Alfven wave transmission through the “thin” ionosphere. The numerical calculations have been done for geophysical conditions corresponding to the midlatitude Borok Observatory and the low-latitude L'Aquila Observatory. As compared with a resonant field-aligned oscillation above the ionosphere, the ground spatial structure has the following additional features which have not been described by existing models: the amplitude peak is shifted northward, the width of it is changed, and amplitude and phase are modified. The effect is most evident when the resonant frequency and ionospheric conductivity are high. From a physical point of view the effect is caused by two reasons: (1) excitation of a diffusive-like surface-type mode in the ionosphere and (2) finite Earth's conductivity. The possible influence of the predicted distortion of the ULF field on various ground-based methods for the determination of the magnetospheric resonant frequency is discussed

EN: It is the first attempt in modern Ukrainian translation studies to identify the features of translation strategies of famous translator Georgy Pilipenko, who is the author of bilingual translation of the sonnets by W. Shakespeare into Ukrainian and Russian languages. The analysis is made within the paradigm of translation within comparative studies, that is widely used by such outstanding and prominent scholars as R. Zorivchak, M. Novikova, L. Kolomiets, V. Radchuk, A. Vasylyk. Having taken into account that terms «literary translation», «bilingual translation», «strategy in translation» are in the focus of translation studies and also the nature and coexistence of such terms as “literary translation” and “translation within comparative studies” is under discussion, it is shown that the bilingual translation can be considered a strategy of translation. Using the methodology of translation within comparative studies, a comparative analysis of the sonnets (110, 66, 91) in the original and their interpretations in Ukrainian and Russian, is undertaken. A wide translation context is also taken into account: the sonnets of Shakespeare in the interpretation of Ukrainian translators (such as I. Kostetzky, D. Palamarchuk, D. Pavlychko, O. Tarnavsky, N. Butuk, V. Marach) are also used. It is shown that the translation strategy of G. Pilipenko to use bilingual translation is very successful and both Ukrainian and Russian translations created by G. Pilipenko are explicitly oriented and complement each other. In the process of translation of the sonnets of G. Pilipenko uses such transformations as descriptive translation, modulation, omission, transposition, addition and tries to keep the structure of the original both in grammatical and lexical terms. The strategy of bilingual translation helps the author of the translation to compensate those «omissions» for the sake of rhyme: when in the Russian translation, the meaning is lost and then it isn’t lost in the Ukrainian one and visa versa. He manages to decode the «message» of Renaissance epoch, keeping rhythm and melody of the sonnet and, what is the most important, succeeds to maintain the energy of translation.

A Multi-Language Comparison of Influences on Author Verification using Character N-Grams
No full textWe create a new multi-language corpus for author verification based on Wikipedia talkpages, and evaluate the influence that differences in topic and time have on character n-gram author profiles. Topic alignment between two texts is found to increase author verification precision, and an authors writing style is found to change over time, but not more significantly after 3 years than after 1 year.Information ArchitectureWISElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
The vanishing author in computer-generated works: a critical analysis of recent Australian case law
No full textAbstract
The use of software is ubiquitous in the creation of many copyright works, yet the requirement in copyright law that every work have a human author who engages in independent intellectual effort means that its use may prevent copyright subsistence. Several recent Australian cases have refocused attention on authorship as an essential criterion of copyright subsistence, and these cases suggest that much computer-produced output may be authorless and thus lack copyright protection. This article, the first in a two-part series, analyses how each case deals with the question of authorship of computer-produced works and why the use of software diminishes copyright protection for a significant number of computer-generated works. The article critiques the application of conventional notions of human authorship developed in the pre-computer age to modern productions and suggests alternative approaches to authorship that satisfy both the major objectives of copyright policy and the need to adapt to the computer age. The article argues that, without a broader judicial approach to authorship of computer-generated works, Parliament must remedy the lacuna in protection for these ‘authorless’ works. Possible solutions for reform are suggested. In a forthcoming article, the author comprehensively examines those reform proposals
