Writing Style
Now Analyzed
By Computers
Stylistic analysis by computer
can reveal writing differences as
distinctive as the writers’ finger
prints, Dr. H. O. Hartley in
formed a Computer Orientation
Seminar at Texas A&M recently.
Attended by 50 laymen from
English, history, education, busi
ness and modern languages de
partments, the seminar chal
lenged humanists to meet the
computer age head-on.
Sessions continued Tuesday and
Wednesday nights with Profes
sors Gene Dippel, R. V. Roach
and graduate student James Pye
speaking. The seminar provided
background for the National Con
ference on Computer Research in
the Humanities at A&M Nov. 17-
18. Both meetings were spon
sored by A&M’s Center for Com
puter Research in the Humanities.
Dr. Hartley, Institute of Sta
tistics director, described a proj
ect in which disputed authorship
of 12 Federalist Papers was set
tled by computer.
“A computer and statistical
technique-aided stylistic analysis
was performed on Federalist
Papers known to have been writ
ten by Alexander Hamilton and
James Madison,” Hartley ex
plained.
“High - frequency key words
were determined which differ
entiated the styles of the two
men as distinctly as their finger
prints,” he declared.
A similar analysis of the 12
disputed papers in the Marstellar-
Wallace project revealed conclu
sive style similarity to Hamilton
papers.
Hartley said interdisciplinary
team-work between humanists
and computer-technicians is valid,
but issued a warning.
“Communication must be well-
defined, lest the correct answer
be given to a question which was
never asked,” he emphasized.
Seminar co-director Milton Hug-
gett said Dippel, who explained
what a computer is, will speak
on “How A Computer Thinks”
and how to communicate with a
computer. Second hour presenta
tions will cover “Decision-Mak
ing in a Folklore Study,” by Pye
snd “Communicating With a Com
puter in Anglo-Saxon” by Roach.
