## Abstract (arXiv)

In a previous paper, we proposed an introduction to the explainability of Graph Spectral Clustering results for textual documents, given that document similarity is computed as cosine similarity in term vector space. In this paper, we generalize this idea by considering other embeddings of documents, in particular, based on the GloVe embedding idea.
