Text Variation Explorer

Exploratory data analysis is like graphical detective work – it forces us to notice things that we never expected to see. Text Variation Explorer (TVE) is our interactive exploration tool aimed for graphical detective work. With TVE, it is possible to make variation in text corpora visible and fingerprint writing styles. We are currently working on the second version of TVE, which provides enhanced visualization options as well as improvements on handling corpus metadata. The latest version, which comes bundled with the Parsed Corpus of Early English Correspondence (PCEEC), can be downloaded below.
