The #SNUFA24 spiking neural network online workshop is taking place tomorrow and Wednesday afternoon (EU time zone). 686/1000 spaces are taken, so we've still got space for more to join (free).

[Dan Goodman @neuralreckoning]

#SNUFA24 starting at 14:00 CET (in just over 2 hours). Say no to doomscrolling, and yes to a free online workshop on spiking neural networks.

[Publishing with Integrity @fake_journals]

.
23 authors have published more than one article every day in 2024.

We have just clicked over to 01 Nov 2024. That is, we have done 10 months of this year, which is 305 days.

At various points during the year, we have looked at who has published a lot of papers, or "hyper productive authors" as we have called them.

1️⃣ The left hand side shows all the authors that have published more than 305 articles this year. That is they have published more than one article a day throughout 2024.

The data comes from @Scopus and it includes all articles types. The #Scopus search term is 'PUBYEAR = 2024' and then we just took all the authors that had more than 305 articles.

2️⃣ When we have posted these type of posts in the past, we were criticised as we included all article types. We held the view that it's indexed in Scopus, so we included it. But we do recognise that some of the articles were "Letters" (for example) which may not be recognised as a "proper" article. We know, for example, that when QS Ranking extracts articles from Scopus, it disregards letters.

So, we carried out another search that only looked at articles that were of type 'article'. The Scopus search term is 'PUBYEAR = 2024 AND ( LIMIT-TO ( DOCTYPE , "ar" ) )'

The table on the right hand side shows this data. We have listed the same number of authors as shown in the left hand table.

Nobody has published an 'article' every day in 2024, but not far from it. The top listed author (Tanihuchi) has published 269 "proper" articles. That is, 0.88 articles each day.

Any thoughts, views, comments?

This award is very hard to respond to. I have received many hundred congratulatory notes, from former students, post-docs, Princeton University juniors and seniors, funding agencies and foundations, authors, signature collectors, amateurs, elementary school neural network followers, and on and on. An astonishing fraction of them has found their way into useful and interesting Neural Network careers by a casual interaction in class, at a meeting, hearing what I had to say about their ideas, learning from thinking about how I worked with a class, or from being my teaching assistants... There are some whom I remember well, and others for whom my reaction is “are they certain that our interaction sparked a single usable thought?” Yet they go on and comment “you changed my life” and follow on to explain that they heard me lecture when they were 15, and have been a member of the Neural Network brigade of the research army ever afterward.

I cannot make detailed comments to most of my letter writers. In sum I can only say that I tremendously enjoyed the interactions that the Neural Network community provided me with; that the mutual interactions have given me much pleasure over the years; that the community interested both in brain and in artificial brain has proved a good way for science to develop even if institutions have not always been sympathetic. Often these institutions found the enthusiasm infectious, after a period of doubt. In short, we often have won--. No, perhaps all we know is that we have not yet lost. I still believe that finding mind lodged in biological matter is the most profound question that physics can pose. And that the breadth of physics is a good base from which to begin.
