How humans perceive the structure of a text document to be in terms of where paragraphs should end

What is it about?

We wanted to understand in this research if humans have specific pre-conceptions of how textual documents should look like, in particular from the point of view of the paragraph structures. The study demonstrates that some bias exists on this matter

Why is it important?

The importance of this work relates to the ability of humans to detect document structure changes, an area relevant to information hiding and secure communications. In particular, we demonstrate that, generally, human perception of a document's structure is not overly biased, and therefore, it tends to be closer to the random case. Hence, the method is possible to use a secure channel of communication.
