In search of an appropriate abstraction level for motif annotations

چکیده
We present ongoing research on the role of motifs in oral transmission of stories. We assume that motifs constitute the primary building blocks of stories. On the basis of a quantitative analysis we show that the level of motif annotation utilized in the Aarne-Thompson-Uther folktale type catalogue is well suited to analyze two genres of folktales in terms of motif sequences. However, for the other five genres in the catalogue the annotation level is not apt, because it is unable to bring to front the commonalities between stories.

متن کاملDevelopment of an Efficient Hybrid Method for Motif Discovery in DNA Sequences
This work presents a hybrid method for motif discovery in DNA sequences. The proposed method called SPSO-Lk, borrows the concept of Chebyshev polynomials and uses the stochastic local search to improve the performance of the basic PSO algorithm as a motif finder. The Chebyshev polynomial concept encourages us to use a linear combination of previously discovered velocities beyond that proposed b...

Degenerate primers-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are commonly used for isolation of unidentified gene sequences in related organisms. For designing the degenerate primers, we propose the use of local alignment search method for searching the conserved regions long enough to design an acceptable primer pair. To test this method, a WD40 repeat-containing domain protein from Beauveria bass...
