Text cohesion is an important element of discourse processing. This paper presents a new approach to modeling, quantifying, and visualizing text cohesion using automated cohesion flow indices that capture semantic links among paragraphs. Cohesion flow is calculated by applying Cohesion Network Analysis, a combination of semantic distances, Latent Semantic Analysis, and Latent Dirichlet Allocati...

This study aimed at investigating the effects of grammatical error correction on EFL learners’ accuracy. Twenty-two male and female senior students were chosen randomly to respond to a questionnaire investigating their beliefs about immediate grammatical error correction.  Actually, the study was conducted in order to answer this question: what is the effect of grammatical error feedback on stu...

Class cohesion is considered as one of important object-oriented software attributes. Cohesion refers to the degree of the relatedness of the members in a class. High cohesion is a desirable property of classes. Several metrics have been proposed in the literature in order to measure class cohesion in object-oriented systems. They capture class cohesion in terms of connections among members wit...

Sister-chromatid cohesion, the process of pairing replicated chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis, is mediated through the essential cohesin complex and a number of nonessential cohesion genes, but the specific roles of these nonessential genes in sister-chromatid cohesion remain to be clarified. We analyzed sister-chromatid cohesion in double mutants of mrc1Delta, tof1Delta, and csm3Delta an...

Module cohesion describes the degree to which di erent actions performed by a module contribute towards a uni ed function. High module cohesion is a desirable property of a program. The program modi cations during successive maintenance interventions can have negative e ect on the structure of the program resulting in less cohesive modules. Therefore, metrics that measure module cohesion are im...

Class cohesion is considered as one of the most important object-oriented software attributes. High cohesion is, in fact, a desirable property of software. Many different metrics have been suggested in the last several years to measure the cohesion of classes in object-oriented systems. The class of structural object-oriented cohesion metrics is the most investigated category of cohesion metric...
