EPISTEMOLOGI PENDIDIKAN ISLAM : MELACAK AKAR PEMIKIRAN SYED. M. NAQUIB AL-ATTAS
No full textIn the context of finding the ideal Islamic education concept, it is a moral responsibility for Muslim scholars to come up with Islamic theory as a paradigm of educational science. Islam as an educational paradigm has different characteristics from other paradigms that underlie the concept of education. It is a must (a must), especially for scientists who are concerned in the field of education, to reconstruct a paradigm building that can be used as a basis for the education system. The alternative Islamic paradigm is a wise choice in the framework of the foundation of the educational paradigm based on the values of the Qur'an. The paradigmatic or conceptual development of Islamic education has been carried out by both Muslim education experts and scientists. Syed M. Naquib Al-Attas is known as a prominent Muslim scientist and thinker, founder and Rector of ISTAC Kuala Lumpur Malaysia, who has fundamental thoughts about the concept of Islamic education. Among the fundamental educational concepts of Syed M. Naquib Al-Attas, which is presented in this paper, is his concept of ta'dib. For him, the fundamental problem in Islamic education is the loss of ethical values in a broad sense. This is due to the unclear understanding of the concepts of tarbiyah, ta'lim and ta'dib. Syed M. Naquib Al-Attas prefers to use the term ta'dib for the concept of Islamic education, because if the concept of ta'dib is applied comprehensively, integrally, and systematically in Islamic education practice, various problems in developing Muslim human resources are expected to be resolved. The basic reason for the application of the concept of ta'dib is adab is closely related to science, because science cannot be taught or transmitted to students unless the person has proper etiquette towards science in various fields. The concept of Islamic education which is only limited to the meanings of tarbiyah and ta'lim has been penetrated by a Western view of life which is based on the values of dualism, secularism, humanism and Sufism so that the values of adab become increasingly blurred and further away from the values of divine wisdom. The reconstruction of the concept of Islamic education carried out by Syed M. Naquib Al-Attas aims to restore Islamic education that has been contaminated and interfered with by the concept of secular Western education to the concept of education that is in accordance with Islamic ideals that have existed since the Prophet Muhammad SAW was sent as an Apostle. The concept of ta'dib which was formulated by Syed M. Naquib Al-Attas, really has high relevance and significance to be implemented in the world of education. Because basically it is an educational concept that intends to integrate the dichotomy of science, maintain equilibrium, have moral and religious characteristics.

Pilot tones based polarization rotation, frequency offset and phase estimation for polarization multiplexed Offset-QAM Multi-Subcarrier coherent optical systems
No full textMulti-Subcarrier Offset-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (OQAM) scheme has recently been proposed to increase the spectral efficiency (SE) of optical coherent communication systems. Thanks to the half symbol delay between the in-phase and quadrature components, OQAM signals can achieve channel spacing values as low as the symbol rate Rs, without suffering from inter channel interference (ICI) even in the condition of severe spectral overlapping. On the other hand, phase noise due to this half symbol delay not only results in the random rotation of the received constellation points but also introduces additional cross talk after equalization, when using standard equalization algorithms. Therefore, OQAM signals have very poor tolerance towards laser linewidth. In addition, for a polarization multiplexed (PM) system, polarization rotation between the x and y polarizations interacting with the phase noise can severely affect the performance.In this paper we propose a pilot tones (PTs) based approach for multi-subcarrier OQAM signals. The PTs are used to estimate frequency offset (FO),carrier phase (CP)and the polarization rotation matrix. An equalizer based on a modified constant modulus algorithm (CMA) is finally used to recover the signal
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
