Network based analysis of intertextual relations

Journal Title: Revista Romana de Interactiune Om-Calculator - Year 2012, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

The texts are not discrete and closed-off entities and this article gives evidences that the texts are interconnected in various ways. In this sense, taking a glimpse at the research extant in the field of network based analysis of texts, we present the referential and typological intertextuality, some theoretical models for the Small World property, processing techniques for evaluating the interconnection between texts, software projects that study the intertextuality and their results. In the end, two original applications for supervised and unsupervised analyzing of humanistic antique texts are introduced. The first application is using LSA and can find the most frequent words, the most semantically significant ones and also the similarities amongst documents. Therefore, this application is useful in automatic detection of textual interconnections (intertextuality). The second application offers user assistance for commenting a text in terms of its main concepts, automatically harnessing hypertext resources if a certain html format is encountered. This assistance process is helpful in the supervised description and clusterization of texts, also related to intertextuality.
