    Abstract: In response to an identification of an input slide, aspects generate text content confidence scores that represent amounts of similarity of slide text content of the input slide to compared text content of a slides that are included within slide presentation files of a repository. Graphic element content confidence scores are generated that represent amounts of similarity of graphic content of the input slide to compared graphic element content of the respective ones of the repository slides. Similarity confidence scores are generated for respective ones of the repository slides as functions of weighted averages of the generated text content confidence scores and graphic element content confidence scores, wherein the graphic element content confidence scores are weighted differently from the text content confidence scores. The repository slides may be ranked for similarity to the input slide as a function of the generated similarity confidence scores.
