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
Stosowanie prawa przez administrację publiczną - między prawem a polityką
The paper focuses on the potential influence of politics and policies on public administration law application processes in the rule of law State. The issue is presented in the context of specificity of a model of application of law in the administrative type of this process. The author tries to answer a question whether the impact of politics and policies (on different reasonings of decisional body) can lead to a decision that is arbitrary or contrary to the law even in democratic States.Adam Szo
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
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
Algorytm w strukturze decyzyjnej administracji publicznej. Model wyjaśnialności oraz ciężaru dowodu na potrzeby skutecznego środka odwoławczego w ramach uznania administracyjnego
The introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) systems into public administration decision-making processes poses fundamental challenges to procedural guarantees, particularly the right to an effective legal remedy. This article examines how the use of algorithms, especially those of a “black box” nature, affects the transparency of proceedings and the possibility of judicial review. Based on a dogmatic analysis, rooted in the concept of a rationalized administrative decision, and a comparative case study analysis (Poland, the Netherlands, Estonia, Finland), the author argues that the lack of explainability in AI systems paralyzes the right to appeal. In response to the diagnosed problems, the article proposes a model for a minimum standard of “algorithmic justification”, which can be implemented within the legal system. This model aims to restore transparency, reverse the unfavorable burden of proof for the individual, and adapt the judicial cognition model to the new technological reality, taking into account ESG frameworks as a standard of due diligence for public authorities.Wprowadzenie systemów sztucznej inteligencji (AI) do procesów decyzyjnych administracji publicznej generuje fundamentalne wyzwania dla gwarancji proceduralnych, w szczególności dla prawa do skutecznego środka odwoławczego. W artykule zbadano, w jaki sposób wykorzystanie algorytmów, zwłaszcza tych o charakterze „czarnych skrzynek”, wpływa na transparentność postępowań i możliwość kontroli sądowoadministracyjnej. W oparciu o analizę dogmatyczną, osadzoną w koncepcji zracjonalizowanej decyzji administracyjnej, oraz komparatystyczną analizę studiów przypadku (Polska, Niderlandy, Estonia, Finlandia), postawiono tezę, że brak wyjaśnialności systemów AI paraliżuje prawo do odwołania. W odpowiedzi na zdiagnozowane problemy zaproponowano model minimalnego standardu „uzasadnienia algorytmicznego”, który można zaimplementować w ramach systemu prawnego. Model ten ma na celu przywrócenie transparentności, odwrócenie niekorzystnego dla strony ciężaru dowodu oraz adaptację wzorca kognicji sądowej do nowej rzeczywistości technologicznej, biorąc pod uwagę ramy ESG jako standard należytej staranności dla organów publicznych
