             abstract = "Gradient pattern analysis (GPA) is a well-established technique 
                         for measuring gradient bilateral asymmetries of a square numerical 
                         lattice. This paper introduces an improved version of GPA designed 
                         for galaxy morphometry. We show the performance of the new method 
                         on a selected sample of 54 896 objects from the SDSS-DR7 in common 
                         with Galaxy Zoo 1 catalogue. The results suggest that the second 
                         gradient moment, G2, has the potential to dramatically improve 
                         over more conventional morphometric parameters. It separates 
                         early- from late-type galaxies better (\∼90 per cent) than 
                         the CAS system (C \∼ 79 per cent, A \∼ 50 per cent, 
                         S \∼ 43 per cent ) and a benchmark test shows that it is 
                         applicable to hundreds of thousands of galaxies using typical 
                         processing systems.",
