ABSTRACT
In this paper, we explore the authorship attribution of The Golden Lotus using the traditional machine learning method of text classification. There are four candidate authors: Shizhen Wang, Wei Xu, Kaixian Li and Zhideng Wang. We choose The Golden Lotus's poems and four candidate authors' poems as data set. According to the characteristics of Chinese ancient poem, we choose Chinese character, rhyme, genre and overlapped word as features. We use six supervised machine learning algorithms, including Logistic Regression, Random Forests, Decision Tree and Naive Bayes, SVM and KNN classifiers respectively for text binary classification and multi-classification. According to two experiments results, the style of writing of Wei Xu's poems is the most similar to that of The Golden Lotus. It is proved that among four authors, Wei Xu most likely be the author of The Golden Lotus.

Naïve Bayes classifiers for authorship attribution of Arabic texts
Authorship attribution is the process of assigning an author to an anonymous text based on writing characteristics. Several authorship attribution methods were developed for natural languages, such as English, Chinese and Dutch. However, the number of ...
Chinese text classification by the Naïve Bayes Classifier and the associative classifier with multiple confidence threshold values
Each type of classifier has its own advantages as well as certain shortcomings. In this paper, we take the advantages of the associative classifier and the Naive Bayes Classifier to make up the shortcomings of each other, thus improving the accuracy of ...
Boosting to correct inductive bias in text classification
CIKM '02: Proceedings of the eleventh international conference on Information and knowledge managementThis paper studies the effects of boosting in the context of different classification methods for text categorization, including Decision Trees, Naive Bayes, Support Vector Machines (SVMs) and a Rocchio-style classifier. We identify the inductive biases ...
