On Computability 2 – In continuation of the previous ‘On Computability’-papers, we proceed in exploring questions like: ‘What is computability?’, ‘Where do the exact boundaries of decidability lie?’, ‘Can the complexity classes be distinctly separated?’ and present responses provided by various pioneering scientists in the field through their lemmas and theorems over the last 90 …
Decoding of the VMS-application folio – In this document, we provide a comprehensive decipherment of the entire folio 57v, which contains a text specifically directed towards the scribes. The text offers guidance on various aspects, including the usage and shaping of glyphs, the meanings of rarely used glyphs and abbreviations, design considerations, spelling hints, and …
On Computability 1B – In this document, we aim to further investigate the possible syntax of the Voynich Manuscript (VMS) by completing words containing glyphs for which we have evaluated possible mappings through previous statistical analysis. Our goal is to construct meaningful words and sentences in the plaintext. Our analysis primarily focuses on folio 57v, …
On Computability 1A – In this document, we continue to deal with the topic of constraint satisfaction, which we use for pattern matching processing. In particular, we exemplarily examine the syntax of the Voynich Manuscript (VMS) to determine the most probable substitutions for the prevalent glyph patterns used in the script, assuming that the script …
On Computability 1 – AI is increasingly capable to simulate human behaviour and reasoning in different areas. The Turing test (“imitation game” as of 1950s) proposes the interrogation of the machine intelligence by answers to written questions and the assessment if the given answers are generated by a human or a machine. Are the machine …
Decoding of the VMS-pharmaceutical section 3 – In this decryption document, we present the plaintext of the folio 102v, lower passage, of the VMS. The text on this folio consists of 2 different passages and a number of short notes around images and on an item on the left-hand side. The lower passage consists of …

The text on this folio consists of 2 different passages and a number of short notes around images and on an item on the left-hand side. The upper passage consists of …
Decoding of the VMS-initial folio 4 – In this decryption document, we present the plaintext of the folio 1r, second passage of the VMS. The text on this folio is arranged of 4 different passages with some free spaces between them. The second passage consists of 2 lines of coded text from an external source, …
