I investigate some methods of encoding text into vectors and decoding these vector representations. The purpose of decoding vector representations is two fold. Firstly, I could apply unsupervised learning algorithms to the paragraph vectors to find significant ”new” vectors and decode them into paragraphs of text.

TextTiling is a technique for subdividing texts into multi-paragraph units that represent passages, or subtopics. The discourse cues for identifying major subtopic shifts are patterns of lexical co-occurrence and distribution. The algorithm is fully implemented and is shown to produce segmentation that corresponds well to human judgments of the subtopic boundaries of 12 texts. Multi-paragraph s...
