A new research paper explores the transformation from an original novel to its sequel by treating books as points in an embedding space. The study decomposes the "displacement" between a novel and its sequel into interpretable geometric components using PCA on paragraph embeddings from the PG19 corpus. This analysis reveals a taxonomy of sequels, categorizing them as formulaic, concentrated, or compositional, and offers insights into the specific geometric changes that define these literary transformations.
