So a dear friend and long time reader of this blog pointed out that there was an error in my time travel story - I had accidentally included a page twice (NOT a literary device). So here's the updated version:

I should make it clear that there are time travel stories that are good. To be clear, these are exceptions to the rule. 

Exceptions include:
Back to the Future
About Time
Groundhog Day

Terrible time travel stories:
Looper
...
I'm not actually going to add to this list. They're all just bad.

This is a brainstorm.

Using measures of first and second order information, it is possible to get valuable distributional information regarding the meanings of words from a small corpus.

Potentially apply these measures to books, poems, or ask human subjects to talk about a given topic for a while. Measure first and second order statistics on small corpus. Yields two nxn matrices, where n=number of words. Maybe preprocessing, maybe not. If we want to use the phrase 'semantic network', this is what I am referring to from now on.

Compare matrices from one corpus to matrices from another corpus using subgraph isomorphism techniques. Overlap may be in the form of a given click - how well matched are two clicks. Overlap may be in the number of clicks. Overlap may be in the amount of the network subsumed in clicks. Use set theoretic measures for guidance and various applications.

Potential outcomes. May be able to identify metaphors in literature and poetry. May be able to identify where students lack understanding on a given topic. May be able to predict the degree to which two human subjects agree or are able to communicate on given topics.
