The NoSketch platform implementation at the National Library of Latvia nosketch.

The graph presents a timeline that illustrates the lifespans of authors, marked by a yellow line, alongside the first editions of their novels, which are represented by red dots.

Lexical diversity measurements are conducted to analyze the frequency of both common and uncommon words within texts, thereby evaluating the vocabulary richness of specific authors or speakers. The diagram showcases the vocabulary richness of individual authors through the MSTTR method (Mean Segmental Type-Token Ratio).

The study examines the reprints and new editions of novels included in the LatSenRom (1879-1940) dataset, analyzing which works have been republished, how many times they were republished, in which publishing houses (within Latvia or abroad) they were published, and who were the authors of the most frequently republished works.
