Code and sample corpus used for this article, which introduces a BLAST-based text reuse algorithm optimized for Chinese corpora. The code in this repository isÊunder active development. The code assumes you are using the Anaconda distribution of Python 3.6 or later, and have installed the python-Levenshtein library.
