Analyzing natural human language from the point of view of dynamic of a complex network

作者:

Highlights:

• We present complex network model for semantic representation of human language.

• Contextual scope from texts are inferred from physical measures in complex networks.

• The complex network modeled presents behavior of scale-free networks.

• Human language has modular characteristic in the relationship between words.

• The relationship between words of human language is a sparse space.
