A stochastic model of word occurrences in hierarchically structured written texts

Abstract: In previous studies, we have treated real written texts as time series data and have tried to investigate dynamic correlations of word occurrences by utilizing autocorrelation functions (ACFs) and also by simulation of pseudo-text synthesis. The results showed that words that appear in written texts can be classified into two groups: a group of words showing dynamic correlations (Type-I words), and a group of words showing no dynamic correlations (Type-II words). In this study, we investigate the characteristi… Show more

“…In our previous study [ 16 ], a model of stochastic process that yields Type-I words has been proposed. The characteristic of the model is that a waiting time distribution (WTD) of word occurrences has a fractal structure, which is naturally introduced from the hierarchical structure of written texts, i.e., volumes, chapters, sections, subsections, paragraphs, and sentences.…”

“…The characteristic of the model is that a waiting time distribution (WTD) of word occurrences has a fractal structure, which is naturally introduced from the hierarchical structure of written texts, i.e., volumes, chapters, sections, subsections, paragraphs, and sentences. More specifically, the fractal nature of WTDs has been clarified through the following procedures [ 16 ]. First, we construct an intensity function of word occurrence along a text, , which describes the occurrence probability of a considered word at time .…”
