Repindex

Repindex stands for 'Representation Index'. It is a tool which facilitates analysis of the stream of language. By continuously searching selected Internet sources in real time, Repindex allows the user to track the development of the meaning of language items and to extract value. Repindex is also used to search for information over time and make comparisons between results in different groups, such as different language media. Repindex is based on Discourse Stream Analysis developed in Mark Perkins' PhD thesis. It relies on linguistic principles of identifying and describing patterns in large bodies of text.
