        Finding similar web contents have great efficiency in academic community and software systems. There are many methods and metrics in literature to measure the extent of text similarity among various documents and some its application especially in plagiarism detection systems. However, most of them do not take ambiguity inherent in word or text pair’s comparison as well as structural features into account. As a result, pervious methods did not have enough accuracy to deal vague information. So using structural features and considering ambiguity inherent word improve the identification of similar contents. In this paper, a new method has been proposed that taking lexical and structural features in text similarity measures into consideration. After preprocessing and removing stopwords, each text was divided into general words and domain-specific knowledge words. Then, the two lexical and structural fuzzy inference systems were designed to assess lexical and structural text similarity. The proposed method has been evaluated on Persian paper abstracts of International Conference on e-Learning and e-Teaching (ICELET) Corpus. The results shows that the proposed method can achieve a rate of 75% in terms of precision and can detect 81% of the similar cases. Manuscript profile

        The damages caused by natural disasters and the type of reaction of societies to them are reflected in various forms in the past written works. This study aims to find out how and how much attention has been paid to these damages and related reactions to manage them in Persian texts up to the eighth century.This research is a descriptiveanalytical study of qualitative content analysis with an integrated approach. Among the common hazards, four natural hazards were considered: earthquake, flood, drought and snow and severe cold. From selected Persian texts, by purposive sampling, a total of 93 poetic samples and 52 prose samples were selected and reviewed.According to the research findings, economic damage is the most damage caused by natural disasters mentioned in selected Persian texts (45%). Also, the most attention has been paid to response phase in these texts (52%).It seems that our society's response-oriented approach to natural disasters is rooted in a historical mentality that is reflected in Persian texts up to the eighth century. A methodical and deep understanding of this historical mentality can help theorists in a deeper understanding of the current society behaviors against the natural disasters and the desired change of those behaviors.
