A New Semantic Similarity Based Measure For Assessing Research Publication’s Contribution
High impact means changing a domain
a paper with high impact does not need to be extensively cited, however it needs to inspire a change in its domain or even define a new domain. This can be manifested by the changes in the vocabulary which are the result of a specific publication. Consequently, a very active…
From Encyclopedia To Ontology: Toward Dynamic Representation Of The Discipline Of Philosophy
Three pieces of accepted wisdom when modeling ontologies
(1) There is no one correct way to model a domain-there are always viable alternatives. The best solution almost always depends on the application that you have in mind and the extensions that you anticipate. (2) Ontology development is necessarily an iterative process. (3)…
What a domain ontology is for
The purpose of such an ontology is to assist humans and automatic agents in understanding the contents of the domain (especially in terms of properties, relations, and subsumption/inheritance relationships which hold between the domain’s types) and to allow data generated in…
Life, The Multiverse And Everything: An Introduction To The Ideas Of Humberto Maturana Interpreting Maturana
Simple unity and composite unity
We may distinguish two types of unity or system , namely a Simple Unity or a Composite Unity. When we bring forth a Simple Unity we bring forth an entity characterised as separable from its domain of existence in terms of its properties. It is totally characterised by its…
Two types of structural changes; the structure specifies four domains
1- Changes where the organizational invariance is conserved 2- Changes without conservation of organisation A living system will last as long as its organisation is conserved and as long as it can be realised in its domain of existence. The structure of a system specifies the…
For any system there are four initial questions which we may ask:
(1) What type of System is it? How is it defined? (2) What is its Organisation and Structure ? (3) Am I interacting with it as a Simple or Composite unity? If I am in the domain in which the system is a simple unity, I interact with the system through its properties as a…
Science is social coherence
Instead of certainty we need social coherence. This is for example what science is. Every ideology, game, club etc. is a domain of social coherences defined by the consensus criteria for acceptability of statements.
Language is recursive coordinated linguistic behaviour; difference between first order linguistic behaviour (among animals) and second order lnguistic behaviour (among humans)
When we get a recursion in the coordination of consensual behaviour, so that there is consensual coordination of behaviour of consensual coordination of behaviour then we have this new phenomenon which is language....."So, we can also say that language is a domain of recursive…
Structural coupling
'Structural Coupling' is a term ( like adaptation ) which is used to refer to the systems structural correspondence with its medium. A structure-determined system is coupled to its domain of existence (medium) as long as its organisation is conserved and also as long as it…
The Diggicore Project: Aggregating And Mining The World Of Open Access Articles
Impactful papers need not be heavily cited
our method to assess the contribution of a paper means that a paper with high impact does not need to be extensively cited , however it needs to inspire a change in its domain or even define a new domain.
The Digital Humanities Situation | The Transducer
Digital humanities as a curriculum
So, if the digital humanities is, neither in fact nor in principle, a discipline, then what is it? Surely, with its growing army of followers and plethora of concrete institutional manifestations, it must have some basis in a reality other than its own…
Towards A Multilingual , Comprehensive And Open Scientific Journal Ontology
Classification of journals
...our prior experience in scientometrics suggested the development of a hierarchical, three-level classification tree. This would afford flexibility in terms of aggregation and disaggregation. One of our design goals was therefore to classify journals into fields, which would…
