The paper explores how the human natural language structure can be seen as a product of evolution of inter-personal communication code, targeting maximisation of such culture-agnostic and cross-lingual metrics such as anti-entropy, compression factor and cross-split F1 score. The exploration is done as part of a larger unsupervised language learning effort, the attempt is made to perform meta-learning in a space of hyper-parameters maximising F1 score based on the "ground truth" language structure, by means of maximising the metrics mentioned above. The paper presents preliminary results of cross-lingual word-level segmentation tokenisation study for Russian, Chinese and English as well as subword segmentation or morphological parsing study for English. It is found that language structure form the word-level segmentation or tokenisation can be found as driven by all of these metrics, anti-entropy being more relevant to English and Russian while compression factor more specific for Chinese. The study for subword segmentation or morphological parsing on English lexicon has revealed straight connection between the compression been found to be associated with compression factor, while, surprising, the same connection with anti-entropy has turned to be the inverse.
