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
Cybersecurity Strategies of the Trump Administration: Complex Geopolitical Responses to State-sponsored Hacking

트럼프 행정부의 사이버 안보 전략과 그 의미를 개념화하였다.The latest cyber attacks are not only increasing in quantity, but also changes in
the patterns of the attacks—diversifying its targets and adopting various methods. A
major change is likely to be linked to geopolitical conflicts as state actors such as
Russia, China, Iran and North Korea intervene behind the cyber attacks, which
have been previously attempted by deviant hacker groups. The U.S. Trump
administration is showing strong will to launch counterattacks against such
illegitimate hacking attacks. The Trump administrations cybersecurity strategies,
which have shown a tendency to attack by even mentioning the use of military
options, has been exaggerated by mobilizing a framework called the advent of the
New Cold War era. However, understanding the latest cybersecurity strategies
under the Trump administration only in the context of enhancing physical attacks
might overlook the unique nature of cybersecurity issues and the complexity of
corresponding strategies. The recent cybersecurity issues have been linked to various
international politics such as trade friction, data security and psychological warfare,
and has evolved to seek multilateral international norms beyond national strategies
of one nation or bilateral relations between nations. Relying on this perception, this
paper looks at the recent changes in cybersecurity from the perspective of complex
geopolitics and conceptualizes cybersecurity strategies of the Trump administration
and its implications
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

The so-called Huawei Incident is one of the most typical examples of the
U.S.-China competition in recent years. The issue is that the backdoor planted in
the products of Huawei, a Chinese mobile telecom equipment maker, could leak
data that is so important as to have a significant impact on U.S. national security.
This perception creates strategic import and export restrictions on Huawei products
and the accompanying trade friction between the two countries, and the U.S. is
deploying a kind of diplomatic war to block Huawei even by mobilizing its allies.
We should also note that the U.S.-China technology hegemony competition in the
leading sectors represented by 5G mobile communications is at the root of this
Incident. The U.S. checks Chinas technological rise and criticizes Chinas
government policies and domestic laws that support companies like Huawei. In this
context, the Huawei Incident means a geopolitical rivalry between the U.S. and
China over future global hegemony. This paper proposed the perspective of
Complex Geopolitics as a new theoretical framework for understanding the
Huawei Incident in such a systematic manner. Complex geopolitics recognizes the
usefulness of existing classical geopolitics, but stresses the need to seek a more
complex understanding of geopolitics, not merely a return to traditional geopolitics,
in order to properly understand the recent transformation of world politics. From
this perspective of complex geopolitics, the Huawei Incident is an example of the
U.S.-China competition for technology hegemony in the leading sector. in which
such issues as cyber security, system friction, and allied diplomacy are inter-linked
