Great to see an analytical approach to the challenge :D Although reviewing your first list most of them actually seem unlikely (for a variety of reasons).

- jgrahamc 17y agoI'm dying to know if this turns out to be right, or not. I actually have a totally different list which is based on a different handling of punctuation. It suggests that the most likely person who also commented on that thread is zaveri.
- ErrantX 17y agoIm still convinced the lower case use of google, facebook etc. (which occured more than once in the comment) is important - especially as there is one Google at the start of a sentence - indicating it is intentional/common. That's why I personally discounted many from your first list (plus the fact I know a few are native English speakers)
- stcredzero 17y agoI am aghast that people would think I'm not a native English speaker. I hope I'm numbered in the "few." Disclaimer: sometimes Windows handwriting recognition makes a real hash of my post without my noticing.
- jjs 17y agoRun it through a Markovian classifier like CRM114 (or, if that's too expensive, just do it for the likely candidates identified by your naive Bayesian classifier).
- jacquesm 17y agoHey hey, two guesses each :) Now I have to add my third from the list: nostrademons.
- brown9-2 17y agoThis challenge is a bit flawed in that we have no way of knowing if the anonymous poster is willing to ever confirm that he/she made the post, isn't it? Not to state the obvious but it just seems that even if a great amount of technical work is put into this, you'll never know the answer unless the person in question agrees to participate.
- eru 17y agoYou can test your techniques on comments (not used in training) for which you know the author. If you can achieve a high accuracy there, you can be fairly sure to be correct in the challenge, too.
- stcredzero 17y agoWell, for one thing, I much prefer telling jacquesm he's wrong as myself! :)
