To date, researchers have proposed different ways to compute the readability and coherence of a text using a variety of lexical, syntax, entity and discourse properties. But these metrics have not been defined with special relevance to any particular genre but rather proposed as general indicators of writing quality. In this thesis, we propose and evaluate novel text quality metrics that utilize the unique properties of different genres. We focus on three genres: academic publications, news articles about science, and machine generated text, in particular the output from automatic text summarization systems.
