What is Coherence vs. Incoherence in Texts about?

This document discusses distinguishing between coherent and incoherent texts. It proposes a criterion for coherence based on the tendency of textual units associated with certain rhetorical relations to follow a canonical ordering, and for semantically/rhetorically similar information to cluster into larger text spans. The criterion is formalized as a constraint satisfaction problem to yield a decision procedure that can distinguish coherent from incoherent texts. The procedure was implemented in Lisp.
