Automated Topic Analysis of the Voynich Manuscript

[oshfdk]

That’s why, in natural language data, you normally get cloud-like clusters (similar topics grouped together), but in the Voynich, the result is very different: the points form continuous lines. That suggests that each paragraph is most similar to the next and previous one, like a chain or trajectory.

So, if this result is correct, it can imply that each paragraph is somehow built using the previous paragraph? Something like self-citation or similar methods?
