Abstract

This paper presents a novel corpus-based methodology for comparing metrics of coherence with respect to their potential usefulness for text structuring. Different definitions of such metrics, all using notions from Centering Theory, are discussed, and the methodology is applied to existing data derived from the MPIRO generation system.
