Abstract

This paper investigates the use and the prediction potential of semantic similarity measures for automatic generation of links across different documents and passages. First, the correlation between the way people link content and the results produced by standard semantic similarity measures is investigated. The relation between semantic similarity and the length of the documents is then also analysed. Based on these findings a new method for link generation is formulated and tested.
