Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution and development of research communities within the field of neural networks, a field inspired by theories of neurological processes in biological organisms. The author examines the sociological dimensions of the research community, focusing on two distinct phases: the "bootlegging" phase and the "bandwagon" phase. The book analyzes the characteristics, attitudes, and behaviors of researchers who enter the field during each phase and their underlying motivations and factors influencing their entry and exit decisions. Through a survey of 710 researchers, the author uncovers significant differences between "bootleggers" (those who enter during the early, underfunded phase) and "bandwagoners" (those who enter during the rapid growth phase). Delving into the thematic depth of these phases, the book sheds light on the challenges and opportunities faced by researchers in each phase, including funding availability, peer recognition, and perceived progress. The author also explores the factors that contribute to the transition between phases, providing insights into the dynamics of research community evolution. Ultimately, this book offers valuable perspectives on the nature of scientific research, particularly the role of individual researchers and the influence of social and economic factors on the development and institutionalization of new technologies. Its insights are not only relevant to the field of neural networks but also have broader implications for understanding the evolution of scientific communities in general.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This non-fiction work takes a deep-dive into the world of researchers and scientists and the impact their networking has on the relative success of new scientific breakthroughs. Observing its subject through the lens of sociometric event-history modeling, the author explores how a researcher's position within their field, with a specific focus on their collaborations, affects the duration of their work within a particular area of research. The author puts forth the argument that an individual researcher's network position within their institution and field is an important determinant of their persistence in the development of a new technology, drawing from data including co-authorship and other relational indices to craft their analysis. Overall, this book presents a thoughtful and data-driven analysis of the role that collaboration plays in the progression of scientific discovery.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the role of networks and paradigms in the development of science and technology. It proposes a new framework for understanding the knowledge transition from scientific to technological paradigms and provides a dynamic view of technological evolution, encompassing both industrial and non-industrial research. The author argues that scientific and industrial research share many similarities, and that both can be described in terms of networks and paradigms. The book also examines the relationship between technology and economic growth, and discusses the implications of the author's framework for understanding the role of science and technology in society.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the role of students in science and technological pioneering through a comparative study of neural network scientists. Pioneers who initiate research in the field during their studies are compared to those entering afterward, and to peers who join the field once it gains recognition. The author finds that pioneering students are remarkably similar to other academic pioneers in their motivations for entering and persisting in the field, despite common assumptions about student naivety and susceptibility to conventional wisdom. This suggests that the pioneering spirit may originate early in a scientist's career, challenging the traditional view of problem choice in science as determined solely by cognitive factors within science or social dynamics. The book's insights shed new light on the potential contribution of students to the emergence of new fields and the importance of nurturing pioneering spirit in education.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the dynamics of research and development communities, shedding light on their role in the emergence of new technologies. The author proposes a three-phase model to illustrate the evolution of these communities, wherein researchers' motivations and behaviors differ depending on whether they join during the initial "bootlegging" phase or a later "bandwagon" phase. Using a survey of 720 neural network researchers, the book analyzes the contrasting experiences of these two groups. It highlights the influence of external factors on researchers' entry and exit decisions, and examines their preferences for disseminating new knowledge. The findings suggest that researcher communities can significantly impact technological progress, and the book calls for further investigation into their dynamics. By understanding the role of these communities, we can better comprehend the process of technological development and its broader implications.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the characteristics of pioneering scientists and their motivations for choosing and persisting in research fields before they gain widespread recognition. Analyzing a survey of neural network researchers, the author finds pioneers to be more driven by the intrinsic intellectual appeal of a subject than by social dynamics. They are less influenced by peers, funding opportunities, or rewards. Compared to their non-pioneering colleagues, pioneers are more likely to perceive their research as their primary interest and intend to stay in the field longer, indicating a strong commitment to their work. Through in-depth examination of pioneering scientists, the book provides valuable insights into the initial stages of scientific discovery and the factors that shape the emergence of new fields of study.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the factors that influence pioneering scientists in their choice and persistence in research. The author presents a comprehensive analysis of a survey conducted among researchers in the field of neural networks. By comparing the motivations and experiences of pioneers to those of their peers, the book explores how cognitive and social factors interact in the problem-solving process. The author argues that cognitive factors play a stronger role for pioneers, while social factors are more influential for non-pioneers. This distinction is particularly evident in academic institutions, where pioneers are more likely to be driven by intellectual curiosity and less influenced by external pressures. The book highlights the unique role of universities in fostering pioneering behavior and the importance of recognizing the different motivations that drive scientists within and outside academia.
