Add to EdgeApplication of a Quantum Ensemble Model to Linguistic Analysis
Nov 23, 2010
A new set of parameters to describe the word frequency behavior of texts is proposed. The analogy between the word frequency distribution and the Bose-distribution is suggested and the notion of "temperature" is introduced for this case. The calculations are made for English, Ukrainian, and the Guinean Maninka languages. The correlation between in-deep language structure (the level of analyticity) and the defined parameters is shown to exist.

Menzerath-Altmann Law for Syntactic Structures in Ukrainian
Jan 30, 2007
In the paper, the definition of clause suitable for an automated processing of a Ukrainian text is proposed. The Menzerath-Altmann law is verified on the sentence level and the parameters for the dependences of the clause length counted in words and syllables on the sentence length counted in clauses are calculated for "Perekhresni Stezhky" ("The Cross-Paths"), a novel by Ivan Franko.
