Comment: There is a semantic skeleton on the map (structural content parameter). It shows combining elements and its marks in 2 ways – in italics (words used in the text) and in usual type (words we suggested). The map helps to see main content elements and the way they are bound (hierarchic content parameter). Moreover, it helps to see general/standard information reconstructed by us - done in usual type – and particular one used for this very text – done in italics (systematic content parameter). Information reconstruction and ranking given on the map provides us with variants of retelling. |
