The present article is a continuation of the analysis performed in Tuzzi, Popescu, Altmann (2010). Here the parts-of-speech have been scrutinized. Their rank-frequency distributions have been characterized using the Repeat rate, the Entropy and Ord’s criterion. The ranking of POS with individual Italian presidents has been used to characterize the homogeneity individually and as a whole of 63 texts using Kendall’s concordance coefficient. There is high concordance. The last aspect is the computation of distances between identical parts-of-speech which yield a very unique picture represented by the Zipf-Alekseev function.

Aspects of the behaviour of parts-of-speech in Italian texts

Abstract

The present article is a continuation of the analysis performed in Tuzzi, Popescu, Altmann (2010). Here the parts-of-speech have been scrutinized. Their rank-frequency distributions have been characterized using the Repeat rate, the Entropy and Ord’s criterion. The ranking of POS with individual Italian presidents has been used to characterize the homogeneity individually and as a whole of 63 texts using Kendall’s concordance coefficient. There is high concordance. The last aspect is the computation of distances between identical parts-of-speech which yield a very unique picture represented by the Zipf-Alekseev function.
