Tag: HD-diff

HD-Diff is a tree-based algorithm to compute the differences between two documents. The algorithm was presented in a paper at the DocEng 2014 conference. Unlike other tree-based differencing algorithms HD-Diff can look into text nodes, splits them when necessary and produces a very fine-grained edi...

Abstract: Detecting and understanding changes between document revisions is an important task. The acquired knowledge can be used to classify the nature of a new document revision or to support a human editor in the review process. While purely textual change detection algorithms offer fine-gra...
