Dimensions: A competitor to Scopus and the Web of Science?     

Mike Thelwall 《Journal of Informetrics》2018,12(2):430-435

Dimensions is a partly free scholarly database launched by Digital Science in January 2018. Dimensions includes journal articles and citation counts, making it a potential new source of impact data. This article explores the value of Dimensions from an impact assessment perspective with an examination of Food Science research 2008–2018 and a random sample of 10,000 Scopus articles from 2012. The results include high correlations between citation counts from Scopus and Dimensions (0.96 by narrow field in 2012) as well as similar average counts. Almost all Scopus articles with DOIs were found in Dimensions (97% in 2012). Thus, the scholarly database component of Dimensions seems to be a plausible alternative to Scopus and the Web of Science for general citation analyses and for citation data in support of some types of research evaluations.  相似文献   

Technological research in the EU is less efficient than the world average. EU research policy risks Europeans’ future     

Alonso Rodríguez-Navarro  Ricardo Brito 《Journal of Informetrics》2018,12(3):718-731

We have studied the efficiency of research in the EU by a percentile-based citation approach that analyzes the distribution of country papers among the world papers. Going up in the citation scale, the frequency of papers from efficient countries increases while the frequency from inefficient countries decreases. In the percentile-based approach, this trend, which is uniform at any citation level, is measured by the e_p index that equals the P_{top 1%}/P_{top 10%} ratio. By using the e_p index we demonstrate that EU research on fast-evolving technological topics is less efficient than the world average and that the EU is far from being able to compete with the most advanced countries. The e_p index also shows that the USA is well ahead of the EU in both fast- and slow-evolving technologies, which suggests that the advantage of the USA over the EU in innovation is due to low research efficiency in the EU. In accord with some previous studies, our results show that the European Commission’s ongoing claims about the excellence of EU research are based on a wrong diagnosis. The EU must focus its research policy on the improvement of its inefficient research. Otherwise, the future of Europeans is at risk.  相似文献   

Overhyped Fad or Missed Opportunity? A History of Academic Libraries and the Social Web     

Joseph Deodato 《Journal of Web Librarianship》2018,12(1):1-27

The emergence of social media has radically transformed the way we create and consume information. These changes have in turn given rise to new models of librarianship centered on principles of participation, interaction, and collaboration. Over the last decade, academic libraries have eagerly adopted social media as a means of enhancing services and connecting with a new generation of users. But how exactly has this technology changed libraries? In what ways has the social web transformed library services or our relationships with users? This article attempts to assess the impact of social media on academic libraries in the United States through a review of the literature published since 2005. In particular, it looks at how academic libraries have used social media to improve or develop new services. By comparing published case studies with the theoretical literature, this article seeks to separate theory from practice and determine the extent to which the social web has transformed library practice. The author concludes that, despite several noteworthy examples, the majority of social library applications ultimately fail to live up to the transformative potential promised within the literature and that this failure may have more to do with philosophical rather than technical limitations.  相似文献

浅析艺术设计专业生产性工作室实习的模式     

宋梵 《牡丹江教育学院学报》2014,(1):99-100

艺术设计专业生产性工作室实习模式是指在学校建立面向市场的企业型艺术设计工作室,让学生按计划到工作室进行生产性实习,提高学生的实际设计能力和水平,这是适应社会需要的一种面向市场的校内实习模式。该模式能较好地解决目前艺术设计专业学生不能适应市场以及实际操作能力差的问题,并且还能使艺术设计专业培养的学生毕业后直接参与实际设计,从而形成学生较高的实际设计能力和应用水平。  相似文献   

VLOOKUP函数在学生体质健康评价中的应用研究     

纪铭霞  杨守民 《体育科技文献通报》2014,(6):17-17,27

通过对Excel中VLOOKUP函数进行剖析,以学生体质健康评价为例,对VLOOKU函数进行调用实验。研究发现VLOOKUP函数可以有效提高学生体质健康评价的准确性和工作效率。但在应用时务必正确设置函数参数,避免出现批量错误。另外,VLOOKUP函数灵活性较大,应用时人为误差和失误率会加大,专业、人性、智能的学生体质健康评价软件需进一步普及推广。  相似文献   

快速定量分析牛乳中α-乳白蛋白的竞争酶联免疫吸附法     

宋宏新  程妮  薛海燕  杜枘宣 《中国科学院大学学报》2016,33(3):360-364

建立一种灵敏度高和特异性好的直接竞争ELISA法来定性和定量检测牛乳中α-乳白蛋白(α-LA).通过使用牛乳α-LA多次免疫新西兰大白兔制备多克隆抗体,并采用过碘酸钠氧化法制备辣根过氧化物酶(HRP)标记的α-LA,建立检测α-LA的直接竞争ELISA法.所制备的多克隆抗体特异性较高,无明显交叉反应,效价为1:80 920.酶标抗原的标记率达66.67%.直接竞争ELISA法标准曲线相关系数为0.998 57,回收率在86.00%~117.50%之间,重复性高,变异系数<5%.与国标电泳方法进行样品检测比较,结果显示该方法可有效地用于食品中α-LA的快速定性和定量检测.  相似文献   

α-淀粉酶活性对不对称重力大小与方向的依赖性     

袁龙飞  刘荣  周影  肖亚婷  何裕建 《中国科学院大学学报》2016,33(3):354-359

手性有左右之分.对于重力,可人为产生左、右手螺旋力.通过光谱学手段,考察不对称重力大小及方向变化对α-淀粉酶活性的影响.结果表明,在1~9 000 g范围内,超重力的增加能够逐渐提高α-淀粉酶活性,并且右手螺旋力比左手螺旋力对于α-淀粉酶活性具有更强的激活作用.考虑到地球天然重力昼夜周期性变化的事实和酶活性对重力大小与方向的依赖性,重力24 h的周期变化可能是昼夜生理节律产生的重要力学原因之一.  相似文献   

平面Bézier曲线细分算法的参数优化     

马晓辉  林凤鸣  申立勇 《中国科学院大学学报》2016,33(3):311-316

复杂曲线逼近是CAGD中的基本问题,传统deCasteljau算法通常固定细分参数为0.5.本文考虑平面Bézier曲线的凸包最小和扁平度最小两种情况,分别给出凸包最优和扁平度最优的细分参数的定义和计算方法,使每次细分后得到的新控制多边形更好地逼近原曲线.通过分析不同类型曲线的最优参数发现,对于较小的曲线段,细分参数选为0.5具有一定的合理性.比较扁平最小方法与deCasteljau定参数方法发现:对于形状复杂的曲线,前者细分效率提高50%以上;对于简单曲线,二者相当.  相似文献
