The main class sets up the comparison, this is done by adding the two files that need to be compared, as well as the adapter to load the file, the extractor to extract a feature from the file, and a measurement to compare the two features.

The text adapter will take a text file, and load all the file, splitting the text into words and return a list of all words in the text. The words are still in the right order, and it is possible to read the original information of the file by reading the words in the order as they are returned by getWords().

titleText Adapter
public class TextAdapter implements FileLoader, HasText {
    private File }
        })file;
    private List<String> }words;


    public TextAdapter() {}

    // ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    // FileLoader
    // ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    @Override
    public void load(File file) {
        this.file = file;
    }

    @Override
    public String getName() {
        return "Text Document";
    }

    @Override
    public List<String> getSupportedMediaTypes() {
        List<String> mediaTypes = new ArrayList<String>();
        mediaTypes.add("text/*");
        return mediaTypes;
    }

    // ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    // HasText
    // ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    @Override
    public List<String> getWords() {
        if (words == null) {
            words = new ArrayList<String>();
            try {
                BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
                String line;
                while((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
                    String[] w = line.split(" ");
                    words.addAll(Arrays.asList(w));
                }
                br.close();
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
        return words;
    }
 }    return words;
    }
 }

The extractor will take the words returned by the adapter and count the occurrence of each word. At this point we are left with a histogram with all words and how often they occur in the text, we can no longer read the text since the information about the order of the words is lost.

        adapters.add(HasText.class);
        return adapters;
    }

    @Override
    public Class<? extends Descriptor> getFeatureType() {
        return LabelHistogramDescriptor.class;
    }

    @Override

            LabelHistogramDescriptor desc = new LabelHistogramDescriptor();

            for (String word : ((HasText) adapter).getWords()) {
                desc.increaseBin(word);
            }

            return desc;
        } else {
            throw new UnsupportedTypeException();

    }

To compare two texts we use the euclidian distance measure of two histograms. First we normalize each histogram, so we can compare a large text with a small text, next we compare each big of the two histograms. If the bin is missing from either histogram it is assumed to have a value of 0.
