    In hierdie artikel weergee dr. Raper, verbonde aan die Onomastiese Navorsingsentrum van die RGN, die reise van die onverskrokke Portugese seevaarders, ondermeer Dias en Da Gama, en die plekname wat hulle agtergelaat het. Na 'n deeglike bespreking van 'n paar van hierdie name kom dr. Raper tot die gevolgtrekking dat hierdie name, op grond daarvan dat hulle die eerste name in suider Afrika was wat deur Europeërs nagelaat is, van belang is vanuit 'n kulturele, historiese en Iinguïstiese oogpunt.</p

    A Multi-Language Comparison of Influences on Author Verification using Character N-Grams

    No full text
    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

    No full text
    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

    No full text
    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

    Optimum büyüme ısı derecelerini bulmak gayesiyle bazal ortam olarak seçtiğimiz Raulin'in nötr solusyonunda farklı ısı derecelerinde büyütülen Peniclium luteum ZUKAL, Penicillium purpurogenum STOLL, Aspergillus spinulosus WARCUP, Aspergillus cristatus RAPER ve Fennell'in optimum büyüme derecesinin 25 cantigrad olduğu tespit edildi. Gene aynı ortamda fakat farklı pH'larda yetiştirilen bu mantarların optimum pH isteklerinin 6,5 olduğu görüldü. Karbon kaynaklarının da büyüme etkisi incelendi ve neticede Penicillium luteum ZUKAL mantarının L-arabinoz, D-glikoz ve maltoz da; Penicillium purpurogenum STOLL mantarının sakkaraz, L-arabinoz da;Aspergillius spinulosus WARCUP mantarının sakkaroz, nisaşta, D-glikoz da; Aspergillius cristatus RAPER ve FENNELL mantarının da sakkarozda en iyi büyüdüğü, fakat karbon kaynağı bulunmayan bazal ortamlarda hiç birisinin büyümedikleri görüldü. Deneme mantarlarının farklı karbon miktarlarındaki büyümeleri incelenmiş ve bazal ortamdaki karbon kaynağı miktarı azaldıkça mantarların büyümesinin de azaldığı ve karbon kaynağı miktarı arttıkça mantarların büyümelerinin de arttığı tespit edilmiştir. İnceleme konusu olan mantarların farklı azot kaynaklarında büyümeleri incelendi. Penicillium luteum ZUKAL'ın azot kaynaklarından kalsiyum nitrat, potasyum nitratta; Penicillium purpurogenum SDTOLL'un amonyum nitrat ile amonyum sülfatlı ortamda, kalsiyum nitrat ve potasyum nitrattaergillius spinulosus WARCUP'un kalsiyum nitrat, amonyum nitrat ile amınyum sülfatta, sodyum nitrat, potasyum nitrat, amınyum sülfat, amonyum karbonatta; Aspergillius cristatus RAPER ve FENNELL'in amonyum nitrat ilr amonyum sülfatlı ortamda pek iyi büyüdüğü görüldü. Bununla beraber azot kaynağı ihtiva etmeyen bazal ortamlarda mantarların büyümedikjleri tespit edilmiştir. Farklı azot miktarlarında mantarların büyümeleri incelendi. Deneme mantarlarımızdan Penicillium luteum ZUKAL ve en iyi, 1,86 gr/lt N=2N, en kötü 0,931 gr/lt N=1N ihtiva eden ortamda büyüdü. Penicillium purpurogenum STOLL'un en iyi 9,31gr/lt N= 10 N bulunan ortamda, en kötü 5,58 gr/lt N= 6 N ihtiva eden ortamda bazal ortamda büyüdüğü tespit edildi. Aspercillius spinulosus WARCUS ise en iyi 1,86 gr/lt N= 2N, en kötü 3,72 gr/lt N= 4N bulunan ortamda büyüme gösterdi. Aspergillius cristatus RAPER ve FENNELL'in de 0,931 gr/lt N= 1N'lu bazal ortamda en iyi, 0,465 ger/lt N=0,5 N'lu ortamda en kötü büyüdüğü görüldü. Deneme organizmalarının büyümesine C/N oranlarının etkisinin tesiri bazal ortamdaki azot miktarı sabit tutulup, karbon miktarı değiştirilerek arttırıldı ve neticede bazal ortamdaki karbon miktarı arttırdıkça mantarların büyümelerinin de ona paralel olarak arttığı tespit edildi

    Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)

    No full text
    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)

    Dissipative Range Scaling of Higher Order Structure Functions for Velocity and Passive Scalars

    No full text
    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
