Can you spot conceptually similar stories by their shape?

For instance what is the shape of the ugly duckling compared to Rudolf the red nosed reindeer. They are essentially the same story, so presumably on some dimension you should be able to spot them in a group of unrelated stories.

Will check for these particular stories. But yes, when we tried this on some stories with a similar arc we saw that their path is similar in the semantic space.
