L’oasis de Sabria (Tunisie) : un patrimoine à préserver
L’objectif de cet article c’est de mettre en valeur le patrimoine oasien de Sabria, un village du sud tunisien crée par la sédentarisation des nomades du Sahara, où la production de dattes est la principale activité. Les dattes sont le produit agricole par excellence et le moyen plus important de subsistance des familles du village. Mais cette activité agricole a aussi ses fragilités à cause de plusieurs éléments. Alors il est urgent de valoriser beaucoup d’autres choses liées aussi à ces oasis, comme par exemple, l’artisanat fait par les femmes (le tissage), l’architecture traditionnelle, le folklore et toutes les traditions orales et aussi la gastronomi
Approximation of eigenvalues of Sturm-Liouville problems defined on a semi-infinite domain
In this paper, we describe how to approximate numerically the eigenvalues of a Sturm-Liouville problem defined on a semi-infinite interval. The key idea is to transform the problem in such a way as to compress the semi-infinite interval in a finite interval by applying a suitable change of the independent variable. Then, we approximate each derivative in the Sturm-Liouville equation thus obtained with finite difference schemes. Consequently, we convert the Sturm-Liouville problem into an algebraic eigenvalue problem. The numerical results of the experiments show that the proposed approach is promising
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
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
Le risque d'ensablement entre menace et irréversibilité dans le Sud-Ouest tunisien : cas de deux villages du Nefzaoua (Sabria et Aouinet Rajeh)
The study focuses on the cases of Sabria and Aouinet Rajeh. These villages are typical examples of sites highly exposed to the risk of sand encroachment. They are characterised by a fragile ecosystem, restrictive climatic conditions and irrational exploitation of the environment. A diachronic and comparative approach was adopted. It aims to map the evolution of aeolian accumulation forms between 1990 and 2022 and to study the dynamics of sand encroachment. Observations show that Aouinet Rajeh is in a very advanced state of degradation, reaching a stage of irreversibility. This has led to its total abandonment, with only ruins remaining as evidence of its former existence. In Sabria, sand encroachment is becoming increasingly widespread, posing a major threat to the oasis and infrastructure.Translated with DeepL.com (free version) and Google traduction
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
