Network Text Analysis

Network text analysis represents the content of text not as counts of words or topics but as a network of concepts linked by their relationships, then applies social-network methods to reveal which ideas are central and how they connect. Centering resonance analysis (CRA), introduced by Corman and colleagues in 2002, is a leading variant that builds concept networks from the noun phrases that structure discourse.
