Why the Voynich Manuscript Might Not Be a Real Language
#6
Perplexity is a function of the language model too, not just the string of text. With a simple n-gram language model I guess the perplexity could be worked out as a function of the n-order conditional entropy.

Whatever changes they made to the spelling, it certainly didn't make it less repetitive. Would you argue that A would be an improvement upon B, given the decrease of the q prefix or the other way around? x is exclusive to B, IIRC?
