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
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
PENGEMBANGAN BAHAN AJAR ANIMASI INTERAKTIF 2D BERBASIS ANDROID PADA MATAKULIAH FISIKA DASAR I MATERI FLUIDA
Universitas Majalengka merupakan Universitas terdepan di wilayah III Cirebon dan saat ini sedang berkembang dan terus meningkatkan kualitasnya baik dalam hal kualitas lulusan, belajar mengajar, sistem administrasi, sarana, prasarana dan lain-lain. Proses perkuliahan pada matakuliah Fisika Dasar di Fakultas Teknik Universitas Majalengka masih menggunakan metode pembelajaran secara konvensional. Akibatnya Mahasiswa dijejali teori tanpa praktek pada materi Fluida. Di Laboratorium Fisika Fakultas Teknik Universitas Majalengka belum ada alat praktikum yang bisa digunakan pada matakuliah Fisika Dasar I materi Fluida. Dalam perkembangannya Univeristas Majalengka terus mengembangkan dan memperbaharui sistem-sistem yang mampu menunjang proses perkuliahan Universitas Majalengka. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan bahan ajar animasi interaktif 2 dimensi berbasis Android pada matakuliah Fisika Dasar I materi Fluida, sebagai media komunikasi dan guna meningkatkan tingkat penguasaan materi mahasiswa, dengan mengkaji pemanfaatan bahan ajar dengan animasi interaktif dalam proses pembelajaran kooperatif sebagai sebuah sistem teknologi terpadu dalam proses perkuliahan. Metode pengembangan sistem yang digunakan adalah metode MDLC (Multimedia Development Life Cycle). Pengujian dari penelitian ini menggunakan metode angket kepada 10 orang mahasiswa sebagai sampel untuk mengetahui tanggapan mahasiswa terhadap Aplikasi yang dibuat. Dengan hasil sebesar 82,5% mahasiswa menyatakan tertarik melakukan pembelajaran menggunakan Aplikasi Bahan Ajar Fluida, 85% mahasiswa menyatakan setuju bahwa tampilan gambar dan animasi menarik, dan sebesar 75% mahasiswa termotivasi untuk belajar menggunakan dengan bantuan aplikasi Bahan Ajar Fluida
RANCANG BANGUN PROTOTYPE PALANG PINTU KERETA API OTOMATIS BERBASIS ARDUINO UNO MENGGUNAKAN SENSOR HC-SR04
Kontribusi perkeretaapian terhadap transportasi nasional masih rendah, prasarana dan sarana yang belum memadai, jaringan pada sinyal kereta api yang masih belum efektif, tingkat kecelakaan masih tinggi karena gangguan perjalanan kereta api, dan tingkat pelayanan masih jauh dari harapan. Teknologi saat ini berkembang dengan sangat pesat. Hal itu terlihat dari banyaknya inovasi-inovasi yang telah dibuat, seperti traffic light, gadget, internet. Bahkan inovasi-inovasi tersebut bisa membantu bagi perusahaan-perusahaan besar untuk meringankan suatu pekerjaan, sehingga dibutuhkan prototype palang pintu kereta api yang bisa menutup dan membuka secara otomatis. menggunakan Buzzer, motor servo, LCD, lampu LED, sensor ultrasonic yang akan diproses oleh Arduino UNO R3
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We 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
