CompuCrawl: Full database and code
No full textThis folder contains the full set of code and data for the CompuCrawl database. The database contains the archived websites of publicly traded North American firms listed in the Compustat database between 1996 and 2020\u2014representing 11,277 firms with 86,303 firm/year observations and 1,617,675 webpages in the final cleaned and selected set.The files are ordered by moment of use in the work flow. For example, the first file in the list is the input file for code files 01 and 02, which create and update the two tracking files \"scrapedURLs.csv\" and \"URLs_1_deeper.csv\" and which write HTML files to its folder. \"HTML.zip\" is the resultant folder, converted to .zip for ease of sharing. Code file 03 then reads this .zip file and is therefore below it in the ordering.The full set of files, in order of use, is as follows:Compustat_2021.xlsx: The input file containing the URLs to be scraped and their date range.01 Collect frontpages.py: Python script scraping the front pages of the list of URLs and generating a list of URLs one page deeper in the domains.URLs_1_deeper.csv: List of URLs one page deeper on the main domains.02 Collect further pages.py: Python script scraping the list of URLs one page deeper in the domains.scrapedURLs.csv: Tracking file containing all URLs that were accessed and their scraping status.HTML.zip: Archived version of the set of individual HTML files.03 Convert HTML to plaintext.py: Python script converting the individual HTML pages to plaintext.TXT_uncleaned.zip: Archived version of the converted yet uncleaned plaintext files.input_categorization_allpages.csv: Input file for classification of pages using GPT according to their HTML title and URL.04 GPT application.py: Python script using OpenAI\u2019s API to classify selected pages according to their HTML title and URL.categorization_applied.csv: Output file containing classification of selected pages.exclusion_list.xlsx: File containing three sheets: 'gvkeys' containing the GVKEYs of duplicate observations (that need to be excluded), 'pages' containing page IDs for pages that should be removed, and 'sentences' containing (sub-)sentences to be removed.05 Clean and select.py: Python script applying data selection and cleaning (including selection based on page category), with setting and decisions described at the top of the script. This script also combined individual pages into one combined observation per GVKEY/year.metadata.csv: Metadata containing information on all processed HTML pages, including those not selected.TXT_cleaned.zip: Archived version of the selected and cleaned plaintext page files. This file serves as input for the word embeddings application.TXT_combined.zip: Archived version of the combined plaintext files at the GVKEY/year level. This file serves as input for the data description using topic modeling.06 Topic model.R: R script that loads up the combined text data from the folder stored in \"TXT_combined.zip\", applies further cleaning, and estimates a 125-topic model.TM_125.RData: RData file containing the results of the 125-topic model.loadings125.csv: CSV file containing the loadings for all 125 topics for all GVKEY/year observations that were included in the topic model.125_topprob.xlsx: Overview of top-loading terms for the 125 topic model.07 Word2Vec train and align.py: Python script that loads the plaintext files in the \"TXT_cleaned.zip\" archive to train a series of Word2Vec models and subsequently align them in order to compare word embeddings across time periods.Word2Vec_models.zip: Archived version of the saved Word2Vec models, both unaligned and aligned.08 Word2Vec work with aligned models.py: Python script which loads the trained Word2Vec models to trace the development of the embeddings for the terms \u201csustainability\u201d and \u201cprofitability\u201d over time.99 Scrape further levels down.py: Python script that can be used to generate a list of unscraped URLs from the pages that themselves were one level deeper than the front page.URLs_2_deeper.csv: CSV file containing unscraped URLs from the pages that themselves were one level deeper than the front page.For those only interested in downloading the final database of texts, the files \"HTML.zip\", \"TXT_uncleaned.zip\", \"TXT_cleaned.zip\", and \"TXT_combined.zip\" contain the full set of HTML pages, the processed but uncleaned texts, the selected and cleaned texts, and combined and cleaned texts at the GVKEY/year level, respectively.The following webpage contains answers to frequently asked questions: https://haans-mertens.github.io/faq/.

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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
