Two new computational linguistics studies analyze lexical transmission and stylistic features within religious texts. The first paper examines Bengali and Sanskrit devotional literature from the 8th to 19th centuries, using TF-IDF and cosine similarity to quantify vocabulary overlap between Buddhist, Shakta, and Vaishnava traditions. The second study applies stylometric analysis to English translations of the Buddhist Pali Canon, comparing Sutta, Vinaya, and Abhidhamma texts using Zipf distributions, TTR, and vocabulary overlap metrics.
