O RECONHECIMENTO FACIAL COMO INSTRUMENTO DE REFORÇO DO ESTADO DE COISAS INCONSTITUCIONAIS NO BRASIL
Get PDF O presente artigo busca demonstrar a possível relação de aprofundamento do Estado de Coisas Inconstitucional do sistema carcerário brasileiro através da adoção de algoritmos de reconhecimento facial para fins de segurança pública. Através de uma análise dos pressupostos reconhecidos pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal na ADPF 347 e dos indícios de existência de viés racial nos algoritmos de reconhecimento facial amplamente divulgadas pela mídia e em estudos recentes, será estudada a hipótese de que a utilização de sistemas com essa tecnologia acaba por agravar a situação reconhecida na decisão.
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

Neurorights and the Era of Neurotechnologies ::An Analysis of the Brazilian Constitutional Law and the Need for New Fundamental Rights /
No full textThis book provides an in-depth study on the theory of fundamental rights and the legal challenges posed by new technologies, with a particular focus on neurotechnologies and neurorights. The book begins with an overview of the evolution of neuroscience and neurotechnology, highlighting the current challenges these advancements pose to contemporary legal frameworks. It also discusses the potential for widespread adoption of these technologies, driven by significant investments from tech companies. The first chapter delves into the development of neuroscience and neurotechnology, emphasizing the legal implications and future concerns associated with their mass adoption. It explores how these technologies are being integrated into society and the legal challenges they present. The second chapter examines the concept of neurorights, identifying the legal objects these rights aim to protect and the new risks introduced by neurotechnologies. It provides a comprehensive review of the main neurorights proposals from recent decades, with a detailed analysis of the theoretical framework proposed by Marcello Ienca and Roberto Andorno in 2017. Their proposal includes four new human rights: cognitive freedom, mental privacy, mental integrity, and psychological continuity. The final chapter analyzes the relationship between neurorights and existing constitutional protections, focusing on the protection of human dignity. It discusses the right to free development of personality, physical and psychological integrity, and privacy and data protection. The chapter draws on theories of fundamental rights from Brazilian constitutionalists to provide a thorough examination of these issues. The book offers a broad analysis of the main neurorights proposals by international researchers, comparing them with the fundamental rights recognized in the Brazilian Constitution. It aims to determine whether new fundamental rights are necessary to protect Brazilian citizens from the potential harms of neurotechnology. This study is essential for researchers in neuroethics, neurorights, and fundamental rights, providing valuable insights into the intersection of law and emerging technologies
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
