TL;DR: It is pointed out an inappropriate link that is commonly made between this approach and the accelerated transformation (ACCTRAN) algorithm, and it is shown that neither ACCTRAN nor DELTRAN consistently minimize parallel gain of complex traits.

TL;DR: Three experiments in naming Chinese characters are presented here to address the relationships between character frequency, consistency, and regularity effects in Chinese character naming, suggesting that the phonological information embedded in Chinese characters has an influence upon the naming process of Chinese characters.
Abstract: Three experiments in naming Chinese characters are presented here to address the relationships between character frequency, consistency, and regularity effects in Chinese character naming. Significant interactions between character consistency and frequency were found across the three experiments, regardless of whether the phonetic radical of the phonogram is a legitimate character in its own right or not. These findings suggest that the phonological information embedded in Chinese characters has an influence upon the naming process of Chinese characters. Furthermore, phonetic radicals exist as computation units mainly because they are structures occurring systematically within Chinese characters, not because they can function as recognized, freestanding characters. On the other hand, the significant interaction between regularity and consistency found in the first experiment suggests that these two factors affect Chinese character naming in different ways. These findings are accounted for within interactive activation frameworks and a connectionist model.

TL;DR: The different types of tapetum found in the spermatophyta are described, along with associated characters, and an analytical key of structural and functional diversity is provided as a helpful approach to the study of the Tapetum.
Abstract: The different types of tapetum found in the spermatophyta are described, along with associated characters. The characters (taken singly, pairwise, or in multiple combinations) are (i) tapetum types...
