Supercontinent-paced magmatic destabilisation and recratonisation of the Yilgarn Craton
No full textKnowledge of the evolution of ancient cratonic lithospheres underpins our understanding of Precambrian Earth. The Yilgarn Craton has exceptionally well-preserved Archean geology, with juvenile crust formation and major orogenesis concluding in the Neoarchean, and a stabilised upper-crustal architecture developing before 2.42 Ga. However, in an apparent dichotomy, geophysical models resolve lithospheric mantle composition outside the range of xenolith data from Archean regions, indicating the lithospheric mantle has since been extensively refertilised. Post-Archean igneous and sedimentary rocks record a prolonged lithospheric evolution that is not well resolved in datasets recording bulk crustal isotopic evolution. Reconciling these, we combine interpretation of geological and geophysical data to resolve two phases of lithosphere destabilisation driven by major magmatic events at ∼2.06 Ga and at ∼1.08 Ga. During destabilisation, sub-lithospheric and sub-crustal mantle fluxes caused extensive mantle refertilisation. For 200–400 Ma post-refertilisation, distributed sedimentary basins formed during recratonisation of the now denser lithosphere. The timing of these events suggests a relationship with the early stages of supercontinent assembly: Dominant downwelling beneath the assembling supercontinent sustains a sufficiently non-tensile tectonic setting to inhibit lithospheric thinning and breakup and enhances lateral flow of any upwelling mantle. This setting allows widespread intraplate refertilisation to occur while later the assembled supercontinent provides a stable setting allowing thermal re-equilibration and recratonisation to occur. In contrast, lithospheric refertilisation during supercontinent breakup will be more susceptible to density instabilities and recycling in later collisions. Consequently, we suggest that refertilisation of extant cratonic lithosphere may dominantly have occurred during the assembly of supercontinents
A Multi-Language Comparison of Influences on Author Verification using Character N-Grams
No full textWe create a new multi-language corpus for author verification based on Wikipedia talkpages, and evaluate the influence that differences in topic and time have on character n-gram author profiles. Topic alignment between two texts is found to increase author verification precision, and an authors writing style is found to change over time, but not more significantly after 3 years than after 1 year.Information ArchitectureWISElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
The vanishing author in computer-generated works: a critical analysis of recent Australian case law
No full textAbstract
The use of software is ubiquitous in the creation of many copyright works, yet the requirement in copyright law that every work have a human author who engages in independent intellectual effort means that its use may prevent copyright subsistence. Several recent Australian cases have refocused attention on authorship as an essential criterion of copyright subsistence, and these cases suggest that much computer-produced output may be authorless and thus lack copyright protection. This article, the first in a two-part series, analyses how each case deals with the question of authorship of computer-produced works and why the use of software diminishes copyright protection for a significant number of computer-generated works. The article critiques the application of conventional notions of human authorship developed in the pre-computer age to modern productions and suggests alternative approaches to authorship that satisfy both the major objectives of copyright policy and the need to adapt to the computer age. The article argues that, without a broader judicial approach to authorship of computer-generated works, Parliament must remedy the lacuna in protection for these ‘authorless’ works. Possible solutions for reform are suggested. In a forthcoming article, the author comprehensively examines those reform proposals

Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
No full textThis study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)

Dissipative Range Scaling of Higher Order Structure Functions for Velocity and Passive Scalars
No full textDifferently to Kolmogorov's second similarity hypothesis, we find that the 2n-th order velocity and scalar structure functions scale with n-th order moment of the energy dissipation and the scalar dissipation, respectively. The origins of this scaling are analyzed by the transport equations of the fourth order velocity and scalar increment moments and by direct numerical simulations
