Homophonic substitution with spaces
Sometimes a homophonic substitution cipher will encode spaces with one or more symbols. To solve it: Go to File, Load n-grams, navigate to AZdecrypt/N-grams/Spaces and select "5-grams_english+spaces_jarlve_reddit"
Before that method was available, one way was to select the Substitution + units solver with the standard settings, Unit: symbol, Mode: Remove and perhaps Multiplicity weight: 1. (Thread)
Using AZDecrypt to auto-insert spaces in input
Sometimes you have a plaintext that lacks spaces and want to automatically add spaces between words (or what might seem like words). Steps:
- The spacing is based on the two letter 5-grams files inside the N-grams\Spaces directory.
- Under Options, Solver options there are two settings related to it:
- (General) Add spaces to output
- (General) Add spaces to output iterations
- It uses a small hill climber for the function so upping the iterations may improve quality slightly.
