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
The castle ruins of Ried am Riederberg : analysis and interpretation of archaeological findings and features from the excavations 2011 to 2019
No full textDie vorliegende Masterarbeit ist eine archäologische Grabungsaufarbeitung der Höhenburg Ried am Riederberg, welche sich auf einem Ausläufer des Wienerwalds, nahe der Stadt Wien befindet. Aufgearbeitet wurden alle bisher durchgeführten archäologischen Grabungsmaßnahmen von 2011 bis 2019 mit ihren Befunden, sowie Funden. Das Fundmaterial, darunter Gefäßkeramik, Ofenkacheln, Baukeramik, Metall- und Glasobjekte, sonstige Funde, Werksteine und Tierknochen werden im Zuge dieser Arbeit mit einem Katalog, Fotodokumentationen und Zeichnungen vorgelegt. Die Analyse der Grabung lässt folgende Interpretationen der Burg Ried im Bezug zur Baugeschichte, dem historischen Hintergrund und der Burgenkunde zu.Die Burg Ried wurde vermutlich unter Hadmar II. von Kuenringen um 1200 errichtet. Eine frühere Datierung und Verbindung mit Konrad von Ried ist derzeit auszuschließen, da das Fundmaterial, sowie die Befunde nicht nachweislich ins 12. Jahrhundert zurückreichen. Unter den Kuenringern kam es zum Bau der Ringmauer, sowie des runden Bergfrieds. Möglicherweise wurden auch weitere Gebäude errichtet, welche sich jedoch nur mithilfe von Vergleichen aus der Burgenkunde erahnen lassen. Ein weiterer noch nicht ganz geklärter Aspekt ist, ob Hadmar II. eine Kapelle in der Burg errichten ließ. Das für die Fragestellung ausschlaggebende Indiz hierfür ist die im Jahr 1211 urkundliche Nennung einer für den Ministerialen aus Sieghartskirchen ausgegliederten Kapelle in Ried. Jenes historische Indiz stützt sich auf weitere historischen Fakten, in welchen die Kuenringer als Stifter auftauchen, sowie archäologischen Funden auf der Burg, welche eine Kapelle implizieren könnten. In weiteren Phasen kam es zu einem großen Ausbau der Burg ab ungefähr 1300, welcher bis ins 15. Jahrhundert gehen konnte und unter den Schenken von Ried stattfand, welche die Burg um 1280 übernahmen. Unter diesem Ausbau entstanden mehrere Gebäude in der Kernanlage der Burg, die vermutlich auch einen wohnhaften Charakter aufwiesen. Weiters kam es zum Bau eines Zwingers, beziehungsweise einer Vorburg im Osten der Kernanlage, mit Wirtschafts- und Wehrfunktionen. Außerdem wurden um 1400 ein Außenwerk, bestehend aus zwei Erdwällen, welche im Südosten zu einer Schildmauer zusammenlaufen, errichtet.Laut schriftlichen Quellen gilt die Burg im Jahr 1421 bereits als verfallen und aufgegeben. Allerdings bezeugen wenige Fragmente der sogenannten Malhornware eine mögliche temporäre Nachnutzung der Burg im 16., oder 17. Jahrhundert.Einen sehr außergewöhnlicher Fund der Burg Ried ist das Pferdegeschirr aus mamlukischer Herstellungstechnik, darunter ein Riemenverteiler mit pseudoarabischer Inschrift. Dieser Fund findet noch keinen Vergleich in Europa und datiert ins 14. oder 15. Jahrhundert. Weiters ist er mit dem Schenken von Ried, Johann II. in Verbindung zu bringen, was auf eine mögliche Teilnahme am Kreuzzug unter König Siegismund gegen die Osmanen am Balkan schließen lässt.This master’s thesis presents an archaeological analysis of the hilltop castle Ried am Riederberg, located on a spur of the Wienerwald near the city of Vienna. The study encompasses all archaeological excavations conducted from 2011 to 2019, including their findings and artifacts. The material remains comprising pottery, stove tiles, construction ceramics, metal and glass objects, miscellaneous artifacts, worked stones, and animal bones are cataloged and documented through photographs and drawings.The excavation analysis allows for the following interpretations of Burg Ried in relation to its architectural history, historical context, and castle studies.Burg Ried was likely constructed around 1200 under Hadmar II of Kuenring. A connection to Konrad von Ried and an earlier dating can be ruled out, as neither the artifacts nor the findings provide evidence for the 12th century. During the Kuenring period, the construction of the ring wall and the round main tower took place. Additional buildings may have been erected, but these can only be speculated upon through comparisons with other castles. Another unresolved aspect is whether Hadmar II built a chapel within the castle. The key evidence for this hypothesis is a 1211 document mentioning a chapel in Ried, allocated for the ministerial. This historical reference is supported by further records that identify the Kuenring family as donors of sacred buildings, as well as archaeological findings, such as Gothic tracery stones and fresco fragments, which suggest the presence of a chapel. In later phases, the castle underwent significant expansion starting around 1300, continuing into the 15th century, under the Schenken von Ried, who took over the castle around 1280. During this expansion, several buildings were added to the castle’s core, likely serving residential purposes. Additionally, a bailey with economic and defensive functions was constructed to the east of the main complex. Around 1400, an outer fortification was built, consisting of two earthworks converging into a shield wall in the southeast, likely to address the advent of firearms.By 1421, historical sources describe the castle as abandoned and in ruins. However, fragments of so-called Malhornware suggest the possibility of temporary reuse in the 16th or 17th century.A particularly extraordinary find is a piece of horse tack crafted using Mamluk techniques, including a strap distributor with pseudo-Arabic inscription. This artifact is unparalleled in Europe and dates to the 14th or 15th century. It is likely associated with Johann II of the Schenke von Ried, possibly indicating participation in a crusade under King Sigismund against the Ottomans in the Balkans.vorgelegt von Trapp Matthias, BA.

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
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
