New research paper

[oshfdk]

Just my personal opinion, but for a while already I stopped trying to understand all the mathematical/statistical articles or posts related to the Voynich Manuscript, it seems to me they don't lead anywhere. They just add one conjecture or curiosity on top of another.

Going a bit offtopic, I feel something a bit similar.

I see the main problem recently is blindly performing a lot of statistical research in the absence of a specific hypothesis to test. Pure mathematical modeling cannot answer questions like "whether the manuscript is meaningless", "what underlying language it is", "how many different topics there are", etc. It can provide good answers to very specific questions, but first I think one needs to formulate a very specific hypothesis to test. Most of these studies don't do that.
