On statistical measures and ancient writing systems
An article published in Language (Sproat 2014a) questions our findings on the Indus script and Pictish symbols published in the journals Science (Rao et al. 2009a), PNAS (Rao et al. 2009b), IEEE Computer (Rao 2010), and the Proceedings of the Royal Society (Lee et al. 2010a,b). Sproat’s article does not accurately present our methods and findings, and its conclusions are based on what appears to be a misunderstanding of our proposed approach. For…
The use of information theory to determine the language character type of Pictish symbols
Pictish symbols are found on stones, cave walls and portable items (e.g. silver metalwork). A detailed pictorial corpus of all the images found on these materials has been created. Using this pictorial corpus, a catalogue of possible symbol types has been drawn up and a second, comparative visual corpus for each of these symbol types produced. The images in the pictorial corpus were then defined using the different sets of symbol types and analys…
A Response to Richard Sproat on Random Systems, Writing, and Entropy
In his article "Ancient symbols and computational linguistics" (Sproat 2010), Professor Sproat raised two concerns over a method that we have proposed for analyzing small data sets of symbols using entropy (Lee, Jonathan, and Ziman 2010): first, that the method is unable to detect random but non-equiprobable systems; and second, that it misclassifies kudurru texts.W e address these concerns in the following response. © 2010 Association for Comput…
