- 14. A computer-implemented writing assistance system comprising an alignment component configured to automatically generate a model of a style transformation based on a comparison of two strings of text that are in the same language.
- 17. A computer-implemented method for providing writing assistance to a user, the method comprising providing writing assistance based on an automated statistical comparison of a collection of source texts reflecting a first style in a first domain relative to associated target texts reflecting a second style in a second domain, the source texts being in the same language as the target texts.
