Recent findings of authorship criteria violations in the manuscripts submitted to Biochemia Medica show that almost 40% of authors do not meet necessary criteria for authorship and thus indicate the need for better dissemination of editorial policy on authorship in our journal. We believe that such cases are mostly due to the authors’ unawareness or the lack of understanding of the authorship c...

BACKGROUND South-south collaboration on health and development research is a critical mechanism for social and economic progress. It allows sharing and replicating experiences to find a "southern solution" to meet shared health challenges, such as access to adequate HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment. This study aimed to generate evidence on the dynamics of south-south collaboration in HIV/AIDS ...

The aim of this paper is to explore the usefulness of using features from different linguistic levels to email authorship identification. Using various email datasets provided by PAN’11 lab we tested several feature groups in both authorship attribution and authorship verification subtasks. The selected feature groups combined with Regularized Logistic Regression and One-Class SVMmachine learni...

International guidelines on authorship help clarify whether individuals who have contributed to a completed scholarly work have been correctly included as authors, but these guidelines do not facilitate intentional and pro...

– In this paper, we study empirically co-authorship networks of neighbouring scientific disciplines, and describe the system by two coupled networks. By considering a large time window, we focus on the properties of the interface between the disciplines. We also focus on the time evolution of the co-authorship network, and highlight a rich phenomenology including first order transition and clus...

It is now more important than ever to be mindful that, over the last decade, the expansion by the community of science of its parameters has moved us outward, beyond individual, institutional, and national peripheries, to be more globally inclusive. Changing patterns in collaborative research networks reflect a new geography of science that is increasingly shaped by interactions between establi...
