CAP4KAM_nDOF: Computer-Assisted Proofs of existence of KAM tori in Hamiltonian systems with n (>=2) Degrees Of Freedom
No full textIn the folder you can produce by uncompressing the attached zippedfile (namely, that folder is called "CAP4KAM_nDOF"), you should findeverything you need in order to perform a complete computer-assistedproof of existence of invariant tori for a Hamiltonian that satifiesthree assumptions: (i) it describes a (Hamiltonian) system with n>=2 degrees of freedom and its canonical coordinates are n pairs of action-angle variables; (ii) it is close enough to a Kolmogorov normal form (so fulfilling also both the non-resonance and the non-degeneracy conditions usually adopted in the framework of KAM theory); (iii) its expansion in Taylor series (with respect to the actions) is finite, while its Fourier expansions (in the angles) can be infinite.The software included in the present folder "CAP4KAM_nDOF" is anextension of a first public release that was a sort of supplementarymaterial of the paper [VL], i.e.,Locatelli, Ugo (2021), “CAP4KAM2D: Computer-Assisted Proofs Fordemonstrating the existence of 2-Dimensional KAM tori”, MendeleyData, V1, doi: 10.17632/jdx22ysh2s.1The software included in the folder "CAP4KAM_nDOF" is designed tobe in a "easy-to-use" layout. Moreover, it is probably not too difficultto be modified for people expert in programming (in C).Everything about the files included in the folder "CAP4KAM_nDOF" iswidely described in the README.txt, that contains also carefulexplanations that should be useful for running the codes, monitoringthe results, modifying the input files, etc.Eventual corrections or remarks about the software package includedin the folder "CAP4KAM_nDOF" are more than welcome and can besent to the author (Ugo Locatelli) at the following e-mail address: [email protected]

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
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
Mathematical Models of Textual Data: A Short Review
No full textThis contribution is the result of trying to put in amore systematic, updated and readable form some notes I used in the preparation of my talk at the INdAM Workshop Mathematical Models and Methods for Planet Earth, in Rome (May, 2013). The aim was to discuss some recent mathematical approaches to textual data analysis, focusing on literary texts and on some specific topics and examples: universal statistical properties of written language and the nature of long correlations in literary texts with specific applications to authorship attribution, keyword extraction, and automatic text generation
