my suspicion is largely confirmed. In the plot below, the dots have been colour-coded using the same convention as on the bottom of this page: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
- light blue / cyan for Herbal (B) pages
- pink / magenta for biological
- green for cosmological
- dark blue for stars / recipes.
The herbal-B pages near the end of the MS are in open light blue circles, but they seem to match the other herbal B.
The correlations for the individual clouds are a bit different, but for the biological pages it is still distinctily non-zero.
Thank you Rene!
At first sight, it seems to me that also the light-blue (HerbalB) and green (cosmo) sections show correlation: they are penalized by the scale of the plot, but the shape of the clouds seems to me to be similar to that of the biological pages.
The blue (stars) section looks to behave quite differently.
I will also add a chedy/shedy percentage plot based on Nablator's spreadsheet. I compare it with Torsten's absolute counts plot.
Torsten measured a correlation coefficient of 0.84
By removing pages at 0,0, correlation drops to 0.74
By also considering % instead of absolute counts, correlation is 0.57
As you wrote above, the correlation for random word order with percentages should be close to zero.
I also think that the cumulative plot of ch- vs sh- counts at the end of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. by Torsten is significant. Here we are back to statistics on the whole manuscript, not page-based. Here is a similar plot where word couples are labelled.
Here is the detail of the area closer to 0,0:
