GPAT: A Genre Purity Assessment Tool

نویسنده

  • Philip M. McCarthy
چکیده

This study introduces a Genre Purity Assessment Tool (GPAT). GPAT calculates genre purity by using SIF n-graphs (statistically improbable graph strings) to identify genre characteristics in text. The study describes the tool and assesses it across five experiments that feature a variety of text types and text lengths. The results demonstrate that GPAT is at least as effective as a system that uses a combination of 30 complex textual analysis indices. The results further demonstrate that GPAT is informative on texts as short as three words. The study is of value to discourse psychologists, psycholinguistics, and any researchers for whom the genre of texts is a component of the analysis.

Purification and characterization of thiol-reagent-sensitive glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase from the membrane fraction of an oleaginous fungus.

Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT), responsible for the first committed, rate-limiting, step of glycerolipid synthesis, was purified to homogeneity from the membrane fraction of an oleaginous fungus, Mortierella ramanniana var. angulispora. The enzyme was solubilized from the membrane fraction by pretreatment with 0.05% Triton X-100 and treatment of the resulting pellet with 0.3% Trito...

A Contrastive Corpus Analysis of Modern Art Criticism and Photography Criticism

In this study, we analyze two corpora of art critiques: one on the subject of photography and the other on the subject of modern art. We use two computational tools, the Gramulator and GPAT to analyze both sets of texts. The Gramulator was used to show the indicative linguistic features that make photography criticism a distinct genre from modern art criticism. Results suggest that lexical feat...

Tools for a systematic appraisal of integrated community-based approaches to prevent childhood obesity

BACKGROUND Evaluation and monitoring methods are often unable to identify crucial elements of success or failure of integrated community-wide approaches aiming to tackle childhood overweight and obesity, yet difficult to determine in complex programmes. Therefore, we aimed to systematically appraise strengths and weaknesses of such programmes and to assess the usefulness of the appraisal tools ...

Regulation of mitochondrial sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase activity: response to feeding status is unique in various rat tissues and is discordant with protein expression.

Triacylglycerol plays a critical role in an organism's ability to withstand fuel deprivation, and dysregulation of triacylglycerol synthesis is important in the development of diseases such as obesity and diabetes. Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) catalyzes the initial and committed step of glycerolipid synthesis and is therefore a potential site for regulation of triacylglycerol syn...
