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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
BIOMIMETIK: PENERAPAN METODE ANALOGI NACHTIGALL PADA LIPATAN BIDANG SUN SHADING
Full text linkAbstract: Sun glare has a negative effect on the visual comfort of residents in buildings. Sun shading is a building device that functions to reduce and control the sunlight that enters the building space. Biomimetics is a science that combines technology and natural characteristics into new forms of products in solving problems faced by humans. The Nachtigall analogy method is a biomimetic transfer method that balances the function or behavior of several different objects by emphasizing natural shapes into the design. The conclusion that can be obtained is the process of analogy transfer method in the folds of Putri Malu plant leaf limbs applied to the form of sun shading can be used with the help of kinetic technology.Keyword: Analogy, Glare, Sun ShadingAbstrak: Silau matahari memberikan efek negatif bagi kenyamanan visual penghuni di dalam bangunan. Sun shading merupakan perangkat bangunan yang berfungsi untuk mereduksi dan mengontrol cahaya matahari yang masuk ke dalam ruangan bangunan. Biomimetik merupakan ilmu yang menggabungkan teknologi dan karakteristik alam menjadi bentuk produk yang baru dalam memecahkan masalah yang di hadapi manusia. Metode analogi Nachtigall merupakan salah satu metode transfer biomimetic yang menyetarakan fungsi atau perilaku dari beberapa benda yang berbeda dengan menitik beratkan bentuk alam ke dalam desain. Kesimpulan yang di dapat adalah proses metode transfer analogi pada lipatan tungkai daun tumbuhan Putri Malu yang di aplikasikan ke bentuk sun shading dapat digunakan dengan bantuan teknologi kinetik.Kata Kunci: Analogi, Silau, Sun Shadin
ASPEK PEMBENTUK KAWASAN TRANSIT TERHADAP HIBRIDITAS KAWASAN STASIUN SOLOBALAPAN DAN TERMINAL TIRTONADI KOTA SURAKARTA
Full text linkHybridity in the context of urban planning, connecting people and activities at points of more than one region with high-intensity movement through path affirmation and linking areas to create a city space with hybrid / cohesive compilations. No exception is the development of a compact transit area and support for transit activities, it needs to be linked with a pedestrianfriendly roadnetwork to local destinations in the form of commercial venues, workplaces, open spaces and housing with the effort to hybridize two transit areas in one more transit area development complexity. The result of research obtained by hybridity of staticun area of Solobalapan and Terminal of Tirtonadi at this time is high (score 5,5) with aspect of forming of transit area that has dominant impact on regional hybridity is diversity variable
Sambungan Kayu pada Selubung Fasad Rumah Vernakular sebagai Kajian Pembelajaran Dasar Struktur dalam Arsitektur
Full text linkArsitektur vernakular adalah perwujudan yang terbentuk dari nilai budaya, klimatologi dan tertuang dalam wujud fisik arsitektural. Kawasan Desa Gunung Alam merupakan salah satu area yang memiliki rumah hunian vernakular yang masih bertahan eksistensinya hingga sekarang. Selubung fasad merupakan menelaah bagian terluar bangunan yang dikaji melalui sambungan konstruksi struktur, dalam kasus ini adalah sambungan bahan material alami pada bangunan. Pembelajaran matakuliah Dasar Struktur Dalam Arsitektur memiliki capaian dalam penggunaan jenis struktur sederhana pada bangunan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menjadikan bangunan vernakular sebagai studi preseden yang baik dalam memberikan kontribusi kepada pembelajaran matakuliah Dasar Struktur Dalam Arsitektur dalam hal menelaah rangkaian selubung fasad rumah vernakular untuk dijadikan bahan pembelajaran struktur sederhana di era pembangunan yang modern sekarang ini. Metode penelitian menggunakan observasi langsung di lapangan dengan mengumpulkan data terukur dan data dokumentasi untuk di tuang dalam model 3d. Hasil yang di dapat adalah, terdapat beberapa sambungan konstruksi yang dibuat secara buatan pada dinding fasad yang menjadi pengetahuan baru dalam keberlanjutan pembelajaran di dunia arsitektur ke depannya.
