Stylometry in the Modern Era: Coreference and Voice for Authorship Attribution
What factors determine an author's voice in writing? We used state of the art NLP techniques to define features that can be used to quantify the notion of authorial style. In particular, we explored how constructs like passive voice usage and entity coreference patterns create an author's signature literary fingerprint. Our data came from the Guardian's opinion pieces and book reviews over the past decade, so this particular experiment was performed in the domain of non-fiction. Co-authored with Samuel Sharpe, Justin Cho.
Exploring Robust Neural Methods in Inductive Program Synthesis
The ability for computers to create and understand human-readable source code is an attractive goal with profound implications for software engineering and security research. In this paper, I provide a survey of research which has attempted to generate or learn programs using Neural Networks and evaluate strengths and weaknesses of each. Additionally, I formalize an extention to the promising work done by DeepCoder that incorporates a Graph Neural Network into the inductive framework.
