Some years ago J.K Rowlings pseudonym was discovered via “Forensic Linguistics” (see: Smithsonian Magazine - “How Did Computers Uncover J.K. Rowling’s Pseudonym?”). I have never met anyone doing this kind of work as their day job or hobby, but would really appreciate any additional related reading material that covers Authorship Attribution and the use of NLP.
- dagw 4y agoSome years ago J.K Rowlings pseudonym was discovered via “Forensic Linguistics” It was discovered because Rowlings' lawyer's wife told a friend, who told a journalist, who leaked it. The forensic linguistics was only used after the fact to try to confirm the story.
