Detecting incoherent citation data among three bibliometric platforms: OpenAlex...

The number of citations received by a research paper is a vital metric for both researchers and institutions. Various indexing databases share common citations, facilitating cross-database comparison to identify citations missing from multiple databases, which are not contributing to the total citation count of a paper. To tackle this problem, we developed an automated method to detect missing citations by util...

Exploring isovist fields: A comparative study of churches in reconstruction pla...

Following the Lisbon 1755 earthquake, Manuel da Maia (1677- 1768), chief engineer of King D. José I (1714-1777), commissioned six plans for the city's reconstruction. We analyze these plans weighing how they addressed the challenges of building a modern city of the XVIII century. In them, churches had different roles in the urban morphology of the city. We investigate their interplay over the plans. The analysi...

Factors associated with perceived self-efficacy in online and face-to-face flir...

Research typically examines the effectiveness of different hook-up strategies used by people to attract potential partners. And yet, only a limited number of studies have addressed self-perceptions regarding flirting skills and which variables contribute to those perceptions. To address this research gap, we developed the Perceived Flirting Self-Efficacy (PFSE) scale and assessed its psychometric properties and...

Web of Science citation gaps: An automatic approach to detect indexed but missi...

The number of citations a research paper receives is a crucial metric for both researchers and institutions. However, since citation databases have their own source lists, finding all the citations of a given paper can be a challenge. As a result, there may be missing citations that are not counted towards a paper’s total citation count. To address this issue, we present an automated approach to find missing ci...

Additive manufacturing techniques for the fabrication of intracranial aneurysm ...

The hemodynamics of intracranial aneurysm (IA) involves complex phenomena that influence its growth and rupture. The advancement of additive manufacturing techniques allowed the development of biomodels suitable for in vitro experimental tests. Thus, we present in this work the process of manufacturing flow biomodels, using different additive manufacturing techniques and materials. The biomodels obtained throug...

Fine-tuning deep belief networks using cuckoo search

Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T19:06:03Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2016-08-11; In the last few years, metaheuristic-driven optimization has been employed to address deep belief network (DBN) model selection, since it provides simple and elegant solutions in a wide range of applications. In this work, we introduce the well-known cuckoo search to fine-tune DBN parameters and validat...

Impact of the rating system on sentiment and tone of voice: A Booking.com and T...

Online reviews have bridged the gap between traditional word-of-mouth and viral communication, influencing peer's decision processes. Analyzing tourists' online reviews helps hotels address overall customer (dis)satisfaction. Using sentiment analysis to understand reviewers' satisfaction and analyze the voice tone and expressed feelings, this research attempts to enlarge hotel, platform, and tourist trilogy's k...

Knowledge, beliefs and attitudes regarding sugar content of process foods

The excessive intake of simple sugars, those added to food by producers, cooks or consumers, increase energy in the absence of nutritional value, being associated with multiple health problems (e.g., overweight, periodontal diseases). Recent studies indicate the alarming prevalence of overweight and obesity in Portugal. In addition, more than 95% of the population exceeds the WHO recommended sugar limit (less t...
