....the work by Pareto [68] in 1897, who introduced the Pareto distribution to describe income distribution. The rst known attribution of the power law distribution of word frequencies appears to be due to Estoup in 1916 [26] although generally the idea (and its elucidation) are attributed to Zipf [86, 87, 88]. Similarly, Zipf is often credited with noting that city sizes appear to match a power law, although this idea can be traced back further to 1913 and Auerbach [6] Lotka (circa 1926) found in examining the number of articles produced by chemists that the distribution followed a power law [52] ....

....characteristics worth noting here. First, there is an inverse relationship between words token frequencies and the proportion of words in the training set in a specific frequency range, such that there are many more low frequency words compared to high frequency words, a trend that not unexpected (Zipf 1935). Second, monosyllables seem to be an exception to this trend, witnessed by the greater proportion of higher frequency monosyllables in Dutch. Both these trends are also present in the training set, indicating that the network was exposed to this statistical information. Finally, although ....

....are roughly 0.017 that w appears only once in that one million words. If the sample were only one thousand words, however, our chances of drawing a singleton rise to 0.317. The nearly linear shape of the log log curve seems largely invariant across languages and text genres, as predicted by Zipf (1936). Some curves in the graph are higher than others, because the language genres from which the corpora were drawn have richer vocabularies. For example, the fraction of singleton words is consistently smaller in the stemmed English Hansards than in the same text when it is not stemmed, which is the ....
