Measuring Global Similarity between TextsUli Fahrenberg, Fabrizio Biondi, Kevin Corre et al.
We propose a new similarity measure between texts which, contrary to the current state-of-the-art approaches, takes a global view of the texts to be compared. We have implemented a tool to compute our textual distance and conducted experiments on several corpuses of texts. The experiments show that our methods can reliably identify different global types of texts.
