Stylometric Evaluation of Parameters and Distance Measures for Hispanic Texts
Original language description
The selection of parameters and distance measures is one of the most important steps in conducting a stylometric research. Previous studies on the evaluation of these for different literary traditions and genres have found that their effectiveness varies depending on the language and genre of the texts. Although most of these studies have been carried out for European languages, Hispanic texts are rarely addressed. Our study aims to fill this important gap in Hispanic texts, and to provide Hispanic literature researchers with the best performing parameters for stylometry and authorship attribution studies. To do so, we carry out an evaluation of the distance measures that have been used the most and obtained best results in general cross-linguistic research. We also evaluate different parameters such as the number of most frequent words (from 100 to 5,000), the kind of n-grams (unigrams, bigrams and trigrams), and if linguistic annotation of certain features (such as part-of-speech) improves the results of authorship attribution. The evaluation is conducted through supervised authorship attribution methods as implemented in the stylo package. © 2025 selection and editorial matter, Roberto J.
