Vocabulary size and email authentication
"... This paper explores the performance of the method proposed by Efron and Thisted to predict vocabulary sizes based on sampled text. The objective of this research is to determine whether this simple and quick test can be used as a coarse indicator of authorship. Three sets of emails, as well as other ..."

On vocabulary size of grammar-based codes
, 2007
"... Abstract — We discuss inequalities holding between the vocabulary size, i.e., the number of distinct nonterminal symbols in a grammar-based compression for a string, and the excess length of the respective universal code, i.e., the code-based analog of algorithmic mutual information. The aim is to s ..."

Reflections on Vocabulary Size of Chinese University Students
"... College English teaching in China aims at developing students ’ communicative competence, in which vocabulary size plays an important role. According to Basic Requirements in the College English Syllabus (1999), Chinese university students’ vocabulary size should be 4,200 words. From investigation a ..."

Measuring the Vocabulary Size of Muslim Pre-University Students
"... Abstract: The last decade has seen an increased interest in the field of second language vocabulary acquisition (SLVA). The findings in SLVA research point to a need to identify learners ’ existing vocabulary size to ensure that they achieved the threshold level of vocabulary. The present study aims ..."

TOWARD A MEANINGFUL DEFINITION OF VOCABULARY SIZE
, 1991
"... ABSTRACT Studies using dictionary-sampling methods to estimate vocabulary size have left a bewildering trail of widely differing estimates. We argue that many estimates are misleading (generally too high) principally because the definition of a word is too liberal. For practical purposes (e.g., pla ..."

The Contribution of Vocabulary Learning Strategies to University Students ’ Vocabulary Size
"... The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between students ’ vocabulary learning strategies and their vocabulary size. The frequency of vocabulary learning strategies used by the high and low vocabulary students was also explored. The subjects of this study were 257 Prince of Songkla U ..."

A comparison of event models for Naive Bayes text classification
, 1998
"... Recent work in text classification has used two different first-order probabilistic models for classification, both of which make the naive Bayes assumption. Some use a multi-variate Bernoulli model, that is, a Bayesian Network with no dependencies between words and binary word features (e.g. Larkey ..."

comparing their classification performance on five text corpora. We find that the multi-variate Bernoulli performs well with small vocabulary sizes, but that the multinomial performs usually performs even better at larger vocabulary sizes---providing on average a 27% reduction in error over the multi
