Fractals and artificial intelligence to decrypt ideography and understand the evolution of language

Cédric Sueur et al. Behav Brain Sci. .

Abstract

Self-sufficient ideographies are rare because they are stifled by the issue of standardization. Similar issues arise with abstract art or drawings created by young children or great apes. We propose that mathematical indices and artificial intelligence can help us decode ideography, and if not to understand its meaning, at least to know that meaning exists.
