To constitute a same production mechanism, texts can be written by a single unique author, when the writings of Thomas Hardy are referred to; can be restricted to a particular genre of writing, when the bankruptcy statement of businesses are under discussion; can be concerned with a specific syntactic characteristic when they are collected according to the usage of passive verbs or BÀ-structure (把字句) in Chinese language, for instance; or can be topically congruent when scientific papers on the motion of the solar system are referred to, and can be a combination of the aforesaid features and beyond.  \nHomogeneity is studied from multi-perspectives. Literatures such as Kilgarriff (2001) concerned mainly the quantitative measures of homogeneity and applications in copra comparison. Crossley and McNamara (2011) relied on the notion of inter-group homogeneity, and correspondingly cross-group heterogeneities, to study the development  \nL2 English composition proficiencies. Argumentative texts produced by school children at a given grade were treated as homogeneous in Feike (1996) to analyze the role of syntactical component complexity and argumentative implicitness in achieving and developing discourse coherence. As an application in stylometric analysis, the idea of homogeneity was used by Gurney and Gurney (1998) for indicating that subsets of texts typically do not provide as effective gauge of vocabulary usage as the entire texts do. Homogeneity also served a critical notion in Yang and Luk (2003) for construction of cross-lingual thesaurus, where thematic homogeneity was premised for the purpose of text segmentation.  \nHomogeneity concerned in these literatures is mostly based on the text productions at the same time horizon, thus the profiled linguistic features of such homogeneous texts are supposedly uniform from one to another. On the other hand, homogeneous texts can be produced at different times, exa","cbCaitKJHfPPjbCh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitKJHfPPjbCh","pdf",198818,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Background and Research Objectives\n## Research Problem Formulation","[{\"question\":\"What does the paper study about homogeneous texts?\",\"answer\":\"The paper studies how lexical richness and lexical complexity in homogeneous texts change over time, assuming they share common linguistic production mechanisms.\"},{\"question\":\"What modeling approach does the paper use?\",\"answer\":\"It uses a system dynamic approach and represents lexical dynamics with a stochastic differential equation including proper upper bounds.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the model validated in the paper?\",\"answer\":\"Linguistic validity and statistical goodness are tested empirically using the CGWR texts and compared conceptually with classic statistical regression approaches.\"}]","A Study of the Lexical Complexity of Homogeneous Texts Using Stochastic Modeling and Analysis - Journal Article | PDF",1792068628,13]
