Long-range fractal correlations in literary corpora
[article]
2002
arXiv
pre-print
The results confirm that beyond the short-range correlations resulting from syntactic rules acting at sentence level, long-range structures emerge in large written language samples that give rise to long-range ...
In this paper we analyse the fractal structure of long human-language records by mapping large samples of texts onto time series. ...

Comparative Computational Analysis of Global Structure in Canonical, Non-Canonical and Non-Literary Texts
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
Two aspects of global structure are investigated, variability and self-similar (fractal) patterns, which reflect long-range correlations along texts. ...
Canonical literary texts differ from non-canonical ones primarily in terms of variability. Fractality seems to be a universal feature of text, more pronounced in non-literary than in literary texts. ...
An analysis of the fractal dimension of sentence-length time series in several Western literary texts revealed that, although most literary texts show a long-range correlation, the dimension of fractality ...

Multifractal analysis of sentence lengths in English literary texts
[article]
2012
arXiv
pre-print
This paper presents analysis of 30 literary texts written in English by different authors. ...
Both methods showed that there are texts which can be considered multifractal in this representation but a majority of texts are not multifractal or even not fractal at all. ...
As a result, a convincing evidence was given that word usage by the authors of literary works is long-range correlated even over the corpora consisting of many texts of the same author joined together. ...

Approaching the Linguistic Complexity
[chapter]

Lecture Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering
We also study a few small corpora of Polish literary texts and find that for a corpus consisting of texts written by different authors the basic scaling regime is broken more strongly than in the case ...
We analyze the rank-frequency distributions of words in selected English and Polish texts. We compare scaling properties of these distributions in both languages. ...
The above evidence suggests that the long-range correlations originating from a given book's continuous narration can be a strong source of scaling behaviour. ...

We analyze the rank-frequency distributions of words in selected English and Polish texts. ...
We show that for the lemmatized (basic) word forms the scale-invariant regime breaks after about two decades, while it might be consistent for the whole range of ranks for the inflected word forms. ...
