[Article] Orlov YN - Language recognition methods and Voynich Manuscript analysis

Don't know it this is really news, feel free to move or delete this if old news.


Orlov Yurii Nikolaevich of Keldysh Institute of Applied Mathematics of Russian Academy of Sciences has published a short linguistical analysis of VMS, for the following conclusion:

"The fact that the eigenvalues of MV transcriptions lie in a circle rather than an ellipse
distinguishes texts without vowels. The twice larger radius of this circle indicates that the possible
neighborhoods of pairs of symbols are more variable than for one language. 
Thus, the results obtained in this section do not contradict the proposed concept of the MV compound language
and supplement it with one more statistical argument. It seems important to emphasize that all
these arguments are fundamentally different; express the features of independent statistics
indicating that the interpretation of the MV as a composite manuscript is quite admissible"
