Words with small norm and small absolute entropy have little effect, both in terms of meaning and specificity; they are mostly function words. Words with large norm and small entropy have a large impact on the sentence while also making it more specific. They are organization names (cenelec) or technical terms found in medical or scientific literature. When they appear in a sentence, they are very likely to appear in its paraphrase.", |
