Average shortest-path length in word-adjacency networks: Chinese versus English
Jakub Dec, Michał Dolina, Stanisław Drożdż +3
Complex networks provide powerful tools for analyzing and understanding the intricate structures present in various systems, including natural language. Here, we analyze topology o…
Quantifying patterns of punctuation in modern Chinese prose
Michał Dolina, Jakub Dec, Stanisław Drożdż +3
Recent research shows that punctuation patterns in texts exhibit universal features across languages. Analysis of Western classical literature reveals that the distribution of spac…
Multifractal hopscotch in "Hopscotch" by Julio Cortazar
Jakub Dec, Michał Dolina, Stanisław Drożdż +2
Punctuation is the main factor introducing correlations in natural language written texts and it crucially impacts their overall effectiveness, expressiveness, and readability. Pun…
Punctuation patterns in "Finnegans Wake" by James Joyce are largely translation-invariant
Krzysztof Bartnicki, Stanisław Drożdż, Jarosław Kwapień +1
The complexity characteristics of texts written in natural languages are significantly related to the rules of punctuation. In particular, the distances between punctuation marks m…
Disentangling sources of multifractality in time series
Robert Kluszczyński, Stanisław Drożdż, Jarosław Kwapień +2
This contribution addresses the question commonly asked in scientific literature about the sources of multifractality in time series. Two primary sources are typically considered.…
Approaching multifractal complexity in decentralized cryptocurrency trading
Marcin Wątorek, Marcin Królczyk, Jarosław Kwapień +2
Multifractality is a concept that helps compactly grasping the most essential features of the financial dynamics. In its fully developed form, this concept applies to essentially a…
Statistics of punctuation in experimental literature -- the remarkable case of "Finnegans Wake" by James Joyce
Tomasz Stanisz, Stanisław Drożdż, Jarosław Kwapień
As the recent studies indicate, the structure imposed onto written texts by the presence of punctuation develops patterns which reveal certain characteristics of universality. In p…
Complex systems approach to natural language
Tomasz Stanisz, Stanisław Drożdż, Jarosław Kwapień
The review summarizes the main methodological concepts used in studying natural language from the perspective of complexity science and documents their applicability in identifying…
Universal versus system-specific features of punctuation usage patterns in~major Western~languages
Tomasz Stanisz, Stanislaw Drozdz, Jaroslaw Kwapien
The celebrated proverb that "speech is silver, silence is golden" has a long multinational history and multiple specific meanings. In written texts punctuation can in fact be consi…
Complexity in economic and social systems: cryptocurrency market at around COVID-19
Stanisław Drożdż, Jarosław Kwapień, Paweł Oświęcimka +2
Social systems are characterized by an enormous network of connections and factors that can influence the structure and dynamics of these systems. All financial markets, including…
Linguistic data mining with complex networks: a stylometric-oriented approach
Tomasz Stanisz, Jarosław Kwapień, Stanisław Drożdż
By representing a text by a set of words and their co-occurrences, one obtains a word-adjacency network being a reduced representation of a given language sample. In this paper, th…
In narrative texts punctuation marks obey the same statistics as words
Andrzej Kulig, Jaroslaw Kwapien, Tomasz Stanisz +1
From a grammar point of view, the role of punctuation marks in a sentence is formally defined and well understood. In semantic analysis punctuation plays also a crucial role as a m…
