This paper examines how journal-, article-, and author-related factors influence citation counts in the business field using 236 journal articles collected from an AACSB medium research output school Middle East between 2017 2021. Results association tests demonstrated that rank format, subfield of article, author prestige are significantly related to number citations. CHAID further presence in...

In the Fall 2021 issue of Advances in Social Work, we are pleased to present 16 full-length papers written by 30 authors from different regions U.S. including Puerto Rico as well Ghana. An underlying theme many these contributions is opportunity brought about through various struggles: patriarchal systems leading innovative women entrepreneurs, social distancing measures spawning new ways learn...

Texts present coherent stories that have a particular theme or overall setting, for example science fiction or western. In this paper, we present a text generation method called rewriting that edits existing human-authored narratives to change their theme without changing the underlying story. We apply the approach to math word problems, where it might help students stay more engaged by quickly...

Purpose – The paper aims to investigate the rate of Iranian researchers collaboration with their colleagues in other countries in science citation index (SCI). In addition, it seeks to investigate the visibility of publications by Iranian researchers, and particularly the visibility of papers resulting from international collaboration. Design/methodology/approach – The paper employs the survey ...

In this paper we outline a method of procedurally generating maps using Markov Chains. Our method attempts to learn what makes a “good” map from a set of given human-authored maps, and then uses those learned patterns to generate new maps. We present an empirical evaluation using the game Super Mario Bros., showing encouraging results.

In this paper we propose an approach to assist operating physical devices with mobile augmented reality techniques. We propose ideas of interaction techniques, which allow users to put self-authored information as notes onto physical objects. We present the design of two example applications aiming at solving problems from different aspects of physical operations.

The paper titled “The Effects of Fetal Gender on Serum Human Chorionic Gonadotropin and Testosterone in Normotensive and Preeclamptic Pregnancies” [1], published in Journal of Pregnancy, has been retracted as it is found to contain a substantial amount of material from the paper “Human chorionic gonadotropin and testosterone in normal and preeclamptic pregnancies in relation to fetal sex,” auth...

Computational Design (CD) is a paradigm where both program design and program synthesis are computations. CD merges Model Driven Engineering (MDE) which synthesizes programs by transforming models, with Software Product Lines (SPL) where programs are synthesized by composing transformations called features. In this paper, basic relationships between MDE and SPL are explored using the language o...
