A Simple Derivation of the Heap's Law from the Generalized Zipf's Law
نویسنده
چکیده
I reproduce a rather simple formal derivation of the Heaps’ law from the generalized Zipf’s law, which I previously published in Russian [7].

Compression and the origins of Zipf's law for word frequencies
Here we sketch a new derivation of Zipf’s law for word frequencies based on optimal coding. The structure of the derivation is reminiscent of Mandelbrot’s random typing model but it has multiple advantages over random typing: (1) it starts from realistic cognitive pressures (2) it does not require fine tuning of parameters and (3) it sheds light on the origins of other statistical laws of langu...
متن کاملZipf's Law everywhere
At the 100th anniversary of the birth of George Kingsley Zipf, one striking fact about the statistical regularity that bears his name, Zipf's law, is that it seems to appear everywhere. We may ask these questions related to the ubiquity of Zipf's law: Is there a rigorous test in fitting real data to Zipf's law? In how many forms does Zipf's law appear? In which fields are the data sets claiming...
متن کاملUniversality of Zipf's law.
Zipf's law is the most common statistical distribution displaying scaling behavior. Cities, populations or firms are just examples of this seemingly universal law. Although many different models have been proposed, no general theoretical explanation has been shown to exist for its universality. Here, we show that Zipf's law is, in fact, an inevitable outcome of a very general class of stochasti...
متن کاملCan simple models explain Zipf's law for all exponents?
H. Simon proposed a simple stochastic process for explaining Zipf’s law for word frequencies. Here we introduce two similar generalizations of Simon’s model that cover the same range of exponents as the standard Simon model. The mathematical approach followed minimizes the amount of mathematical background needed for deriving the exponent, compared to previous approaches to the standard Simon’s...
متن کاملFrequency Analysis of FG Sandwich Rectangular Plates with a Four-Parameter Power-Law Distribution
An accurate solution procedure based on the three-dimensional elasticity theory for the free vibration analysis of Functionally Graded Sandwich (FGS) plates is presented. Since no assumptions on stresses and displacements have been employed, it can be applied to the free vibration analysis of plates with arbitrary thickness. The two-constituent FGS plate consists of ceramic and metal graded thr...
