Local Space-Time Smoothing for Version Controlled Documents

Unlike static documents, version controlled documents are continuously edited by one or more authors. Such collaborative revision process makes traditional modeling and visualization techniques inappropriate. In this paper we propose a new representation based on local spacetime smoothing that captures important revision patterns. We demonstrate the applicability of our framework using experiments on synthetic and real-world data.
