In the realm of crafting written content, three critical elements come into play: “perplexity,” “burstiness,” and “predictability.” Perplexity serves as the gauge for textual intricacy. Meanwhile, burstiness is the measure of sentence diversity, assessing the ebb and flow of sentence length and complexity. Lastly, predictability indicates the likelihood of anticipating the subsequent sentence.
