The Laplacian spectrum of language: Experiments with linguistic families from the Americas

Descripción del Articulo

To what extent would statistical mechanics approaches help to represent languages from the Americas? Is it possible to extract useful information about the relationships between these languages? This work studies a graph-based approach to extract information from text corpora of languages of the Ame...
