It has been further argued that genre classification is of limited utility as a goal in itself because of the ambiguities and subjectivity inherent to genr...

In this study we assessed the efficacy of using website genre composition and design structure information for fake website detection. A genre tree kernel was proposed that creates a rooted tree from the website file directory structure, and labels the tree’s file nodes with genre information.

We argue for a systematic analysis of one particular, well structured domain—academic Web pages—with regard to a special class of digital genres: Web genres. For this purpose, we have developed a database-driven system that will ultimately consist of more than 3 000 000 HTML documents, written in German, which are the empirical basis for our research. We introduce the notions of Web genre type ...

Derivations in the minimalist programm (MP) frequently encounter competition between elementary operations. A way in MP to resolve such competitions is to assume preference principles, the most prominent being “Merge before Move” (Chomsky 2000). Assmann, Georgi et al. (2013) discuss competition between Agree and Move. ere, either Agree must be procrastinated in favor of Move or the other way ro...
