(with work on this from back in the 20th century. I think it stands up OK.
We are currently reviewing, and implementing an improved version of the
definition given there of 'corpus heterogeneity' for viewing in the Sketch
Engine.  In brief, the new definition builds on a definition of corpus
similarity, and is,  "the similarity between the two most different
parts".  We cluster documents to identify the two most different parts. )
