SWL Polarity Landscape
The Structured Witness Ledger: every verse witnessed against its immediate neighbours.
HOW TO READ THIS
Each vertical bar represents one verse, in canonical order from left to right across the entire corpus. The bar's height represents drift: how different this verse is from its preceding context (1 minus cosine similarity). Tall bars = high drift = the text is changing.
Green bars (Coherence) — similarity > 0.4. This verse continues the theme of its neighbours. The text is flowing smoothly.
Red bars (Gap) — similarity < 0.2. A local discontinuity. The text has shifted abruptly — a seam, a genre change, an editorial join.
Grey bars (Uninscribed) — similarity between 0.2 and 0.4. Neither strongly continuous nor discontinuous. The text is in transition.
Book boundaries appear as vertical markers. Hover over any bar to see the verse text and its similarity scores. Click to open the verse detail page.
The witnessing uses raw verse text (not the accumulated context) compared against a sliding window of 5 preceding verses. This measures local textual continuity, independent of the global trajectory.
