Abstract
This paper describes a novel method extracting editing differences between pairs of SVG graphics documents. These differences are extracted based on the analysis of the tree structure of SVG, and are generalized in order to abstract from the specifics of targets and document structure. The generalized differences can then be applied to other SVG graphics, resulting in new, heretofore unavailable graphics. We show the effectiveness of our method with experiments involving a variety of SVG documents.
