A Multi-Language Comparison of Influences on Author Verification using Character N-Grams
We 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
We 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
Abstract
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
AN ANALYSIS BASED ON CARE NEEDS OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES
Background: Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide, with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) being the largest contributor. Seventy-three percent of NCD deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where the population aged ≥60 years is projected to nearly double by mid-century. In Indonesia, rapid demographic and epidemiological transitions have intensified healthcare and long-term care (LTC) demands, yet evidence linking these changes to system responses remains limited.
Objective: This thesis examines healthcare utilization and LTC among older adults in Indonesia, focusing on individuals with CVDs. It aims to assess healthcare costs, evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on service utilization, project future LTC expenditure, and explore policymaker perspectives on Indonesia’s transition from informal to formal LTC systems.
Methods: A mixed-methods design was employed, integrating quantitative and qualitative components. Study I used National Health Insurance (NHI) claims data from 2016–2018 (N = 271,065) and applied a three-level linear mixed-effects model (individual, household, and district levels) to examine associations between CVDs, with or without other chronic disease comorbidities, and healthcare costs. Study II analyzed longitudinal NHI data from 2016–2020 (N = 378,495) using interrupted time-series analysis to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on healthcare utilization. Study III employed a macro-simulation model to project LTC costs for adults aged ≥60 years (N ≈ 35 million in 2025). Study IV conducted in-depth interviews with nine policymakers and analyzed them using inductive qualitative content analysis.
Results: Adults with CVDs and multimorbidity incurred nearly twice the healthcare costs of those with CVD alone. Among higher-income groups, mean outpatient costs were USD 119.5 (SD 264.1) for CVDs and multimorbidity versus USD 49.1 (SD 153.6) for CVD alone; among lower-income groups, USD 79.9 (SD 202.4) versus USD 36.7 (SD 127.5). Healthcare utilization declined markedly during the COVID-19 pandemic: hospital outpatient visits decreased 32% (95% CI 0.55–0.85), inpatient visits 18% (95% CI 0.71–0.95), and primary-care visits 23% (95% CI 0.63–0.94). LTC expenditure is projected to increase from USD 3.2 billion in 2025 to USD 19.2 billion in 2045—equivalent to a rise from 0.94% to 2.06% of GDP—driven primarily by home-based care. Stakeholders emphasized the need to balance family, community, and state responsibilities in developing equitable and sustainable LTC systems.
Conclusion: Cardiovascular disease and multimorbidity were associated with substantially higher healthcare costs and resource utilization among Indonesian adults, with subsidized households showing lower healthcare use and spending reflecting socioeconomic barriers to access. Beyond healthcare utilization, LTC needs and costs are projected to rise sharply, highlighting a central policy challenge: defining the respective roles of the state, families, and communities in future care provision. As Indonesia remains a relatively young nation, investments in population health and NCD prevention will be critical, as these will strongly influence both healthcare utilization and future LTC demand. Preventive strategies and prioritizing the development of public facilities that promote healthy aging and inclusivity are essential to building a resilient, equitable, and sustainable LTC system aligned with Indonesia’s broader development and social protection goals
Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)

Spektrum Distance Laplacian dan Distance Signless Laplacian pada Graf Bipartit Lengkap (K_(n,n) ) dan Graf Tripartit Lengkap (K_(n,n,n) )
Susunan nilai eigen dari matriks ketetanggaan beserta multiplisitasnya disebut spektrum graf. Spektrum graf yang dihasilkan dari matriks distance Laplacian disebut sebagai spektrum distance Laplacian, sedangkan spektrum yang dihasilkan dari matriks distance Signless Laplacian disebut spektrum distance Signless Laplacian. Matriks distance Laplacian dari suatu graf merupakan selisih dari matriks transmisi dan matriks distance, sedangkan matriks distance Signless Laplacian dari suatu graf merupakan penjumlahan dari matriks transmisi dan matriks distance. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan bentuk umum polinomial karakteristik dan bentuk umum spektrum distance Laplacian serta distance Signless Laplacian pada graf bipartit lengkap ( K_(n,n) ) dan graf tripartit lengkap ( K_(n,n,n) ) dengan n≥2. Polinomial karkateristik yang dihasilkan diperoleh dari perkalian elemen-elemen diagonal utama pada matriks segitiga atas yang merupakan hasil reduksi persamaan karakteristik dengan Eliminasi Gaussian. Hasil penelitian ini diperoleh bentuk umum polinomial karakteristik matriks distance Laplacian pada graf bipartit lengkap ( K_(n,n) ) dengan n≥2 adalah p(μ)=μ(μ-2n) (μ-3n)^(2n-2), sedangkan untuk graf tripartit lengkap ( K_(n,n,n) ) dengan n≥2 adalah p(μ)=μ(μ-3n)^2 (μ-4n)^(3n-3). Bentuk umum polinomial karakteristik matriks distance Signless Laplacian pada graf bipartit lengkap ( K_(n,n) ) dengan n≥2 adalah p(δ)=(δ-(3n-4))^(2n-2) (δ-(4n-4))(δ-(6n-4)), sedangkan untuk graf tripartit lengkap ( K_(n,n,n) ) dengan n≥2 adalah p(δ)=(δ-(4n-4))^(3n-3) (δ-(5n-4))^2 (δ-(8n-4)). Selanjutnya, dari polinomial karakteristik graf tersebut dapat diperoleh bentuk umum spektrum distance Laplacian dan spektrum distance Signless Laplacian pada graf bipartit lengkap ( K_(n,n) ) dan graf tripartit lengkap ( K_(n,n,n) ), dengan n≥2, yaitu (Spec_L_D)(K_(n,n))=[0 2n 3n; 1 1 (2n-2)], (Spec_L_D)(K_(n,n,n))=[0 3n 4n; 1 2 (3n-3)], (Spec_Q_D)(K_(n,n))=[(3n-4) (4n-4) (6n-4); (2n-2) 1 1], dan (Spec_Q_D)(K_(n,n,n))=[(4n-4) (5n-4) (8n-4); (3n-3) 2 1]
Dissipative Range Scaling of Higher Order Structure Functions for Velocity and Passive Scalars
Differently to Kolmogorov's second similarity hypothesis, we find that the 2n-th order velocity and scalar structure functions scale with n-th order moment of the energy dissipation and the scalar dissipation, respectively. The origins of this scaling are analyzed by the transport equations of the fourth order velocity and scalar increment moments and by direct numerical simulations
