Advice on using 'Compare to' and 'Compare with'
Compare usually takes the preposition “to” when it refers to the activity of describing the resemblances between unlike things: e.g. He compared her to a summer day. Scientists sometimes compare the human brain to a computer.
It takes “with” when it refers to the act of examining two like things in order to discern their similarities or differences: e.g. The police compared the forged signature with the original.
