An Exploratory Study on Genre Classification using Readability Features

• We present a preliminary study that explores whether text features used for readability assessment are reliable genre-revealing features. We empirically explore the difference between genre and domain. We carry out two sets of experiments with both supervised and unsupervised methods. Findings on the Swedish national corpus (the SUC) show that readability cues are good indicators of genre variation.
