An attempt at extracting grammar from vord order statistics.

[davidd]

I think we are at a point where we really need the quality measure mentioned by Rafal. At the moment I cannot think of any simple qualitative way of determining if replacing 'm' is making the grammars better or worse. A quantitative measure could probably help.

As far as I remember, Mauro presented a universal scoring function for grammars a while ago. It was based on the total size of the grammar and the text itself as expressed using the grammar. I'm not sure if it applies here or not, maybe Mauro can comment.

I did an attempt of a score function,  
 its bad news. It looks like voynich is more like random than like genesis.

I am not happy yet about the score function, and I still havent started using the cleaned version of the transliteration file, but it doesnt look promising.
