The paper regards the electronic communication from the point of view of text typology. This problem has rather practical, than theoretical significance, taking into consideration the problems of the text selection for a representative corpus and of their annotation.

Detecting artists that can be considered as prototypes for particular genres or styles of music is an interesting task. In this paper, we present an approach that ranks artists according to their prototypicality. To calculate such a ranking, we use asymmetric similarity matrices obtained via co-occurrence analysis of artist names on web pages. We demonstrate our approach on a data set containin...
