A Study of Authorship Patterns and Collaborative Research in Collaborative Librarianship, 2009-2014

This paper presents a bibliometric study of Collaborative Librarianship (CL) during the period of 2009-2014. A total of 223 research contributions and 343 authors were examined by growth of contributions by year and volume, authorship patterns by year and volume, growth of authors by year, authorship patterns, author productivity, authorship patterns by global, most prolific contributors and degree of collaboration. Average number of authors per paper is 1.538. The highest number of author productivity i.e., 0.650. The average degree of author collaboration in the Collaborative Librarianship is 0.354, which clearly indicates its dominance upon single authored contributions

ANALYSIS OF LITERATURE ON DENGUE: A BIBLIOMETRIC STUDY

Abstract: This paper analysis a literature of Dengue using bibliometric techniques, the records published during the year 2008 to 2017 in the MEDLINE data, which are covered by Pubmed. On the whole, it is observed that from 2008 onwards there is a gradual increase in research on Dengue. It was examined that 41.4% data are journal articles. It was also studied that United States is the major producer, followed by England and Netherlands in the area of Dengue literature. The literary production is observed in almost all the major countries covered. India has been ranked in the 4th position. 94.8% of the research output covered in English language and followed by Spanish, Portuguese and French. The Relative Growth Rate (RGR) has been decreased from 0.75 to 0.14 and the Doubling Time (Dt) increases from 0.92 to 5.02 in the study period. Indian efforts in Dengue research are greater in three years out of ten years of study, since the Activity Index is higher than 100, in those three years, which reflects higher activity of Dengue research than the World’s average

An Effective Supervised Machine Learning Approach for Indian Native Chicken’s Gender and Breed Classification

This study proposes a computer vision and machine learning (ML)-based approach to classify gender and breed in native chicken production industries with minimal human intervention. The supervised ML and feature extraction algorithms are utilized to classify eleven Indian chicken breeds, with 17,600 training samples and 4,400 testing samples (80:20 ratio). The gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) algorithm is applied for feature extraction, and the principle component analysis (PCA) algorithm is used for feature selection. Among the tested 27 classifiers, the FG-SVM, F-KNN, and W-KNN classifiers obtain more than 90% accuracy, with individual accuracies of 90.1%, 99.1%, and 99.1%. The BT classifier performs well in gender and breed classification work, achieving accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and F-scores of 99.3%, 90.2%, 99.4%, and 99.5%, respectively, and a mean absolute error of 0.7
