Authorship verification is an important subproblem in authorship attribution and plagiarism detection tasks. We present a novel approach for extracting stylistic features unique to individual authors. We use the correlations of important textual features as a way to learn the style. The goal of our proposed method is to answer the following question: given a set of documents known to be written by the same person and an unknown document, is the unknown document also written by that individual. We present the first study of this problem conducted on opinion pieces written in Estonian. Our method achieves 74% precision, which is comparable with current state-of-theart systems tested in other languages, whereas the recall level is still something to be improved on.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
