Stylometric analysis of the VMS with Stylo (R)

[MarcoP]

I don't know how robust the PCA diagram can be, since many pages don't contain much text, but I would say this shows the large variance in "language" even for individual scribes. This is particularly clear for Scribe2's Quire13 (high Y=PC2) vs Herbal (low Y) pages; it's also noteworthy that Scribe3's Q20 basically falls between the two clusters by Scribe2.
