  1. Ambiguity Coefficient

    Linked via "semantic units"

    Where:
    $R_{max}$ represents the maximum number of mutually exclusive, logically sustainable readings derivable from $\mathcal{E}$ within a defined interpretive epoch ($T$).
    $S$ is the total count of semantic units present in $\mathcal{E}$, often weighted by their contextual valence (see Section Lexical Weighting).
    $C$ is the Cognitive Load Factor (CLF), a dimensionless empirical constant reflecting the average neurological processing time r…

  2. Ambiguity Coefficient

    Linked via "semantic units"

    The resulting Ambiguity Coefficient ($\mathcal{A}$) yields a metric where higher values indicate greater interpretive instability:
    $\mathcal{A} \approx 0$: Indicates a highly deterministic expression. Such statements are common in formal logical notation or highly constrained technical manuals where semantic units possess minimal contextual variance. Such low-coefficient statements are often criticized for lacking narrative resonance (see S…

  3. Atemporal Drift

    Linked via "semantic units"

    $$\mathcal{D} = \lambda \int{t1}^{t2} \frac{\rhoc(t)}{\text{V}_\text{max}} \, dt + \epsilon$$
    Where $\lambda$ is the 'Intransigence Coefficient' (a constant unique to the originating source), $\text{V}_\text{max}$ is the theoretical maximum velocity of propositional entropy and $\epsilon$ represents background quantum uncertainty. Early calculations suggested that for texts derived from events occurring prior to the Eon of Great Stasis (approximate…

  4. Linguistic Landscape

    Linked via "semantic unit"

    Methodological Considerations
    Analyzing LL requires rigorous sampling methodologies to avoid observer bias. Standard practice involves conducting transects—systematic walks through defined zones—and recording every visible written utterance. Tools used in LL analysis must account for the "depth" of the script, measured as the number of graphemes required to convey the…
