Structured Nonsense: Automatic Imitation of Writing Style
نویسنده
چکیده
In this report we present a system designed to generate nonsense sentences in a specified style. A style is defined implicitly by providing a set of training documents (e.g. books written by a single author) and the system extracts the necessary information to mimic structural properties of the text. We quantify our success in the style mimicry task by measuring the ability of our system to fool a standard stylometric evaluation tool.

Selective imitation for a private sign system.
A distinctive feature of all human languages is the diverse and arbitrary nature of the sign (signifier). This can be interpreted as stating that the mapping between signals and referents is established by convention rather than by functional constraints. This property of the sign provides for a great deal of linguistic flexibility and is a key component of symbolic communication. Game theoreti...
متن کاملParaphrasing for Style
We present initial investigation into the task of paraphrasing language while targeting a particular writing style. The plays of William Shakespeare and their modern translations are used as a testbed for evaluating paraphrase systems targeting a specific style of writing. We show that even with a relatively small amount of parallel training data, it is possible to learn paraphrase models which...

Interpersonal closeness in romantic relationships is characterised by an increased overlap between cognitive representations of oneself and one's partner. Importantly, this type of self-other overlap also occurs in the bodily domain, whereby we can repre...

Even the unimplemented language can be useful. By writing programmes using the language, one achieves a disciplined and structured programming style which is hard to attain in a less structured environment. The programmes can later be translated by hand into some other language. This approach was found to be very successful in a trial by a class of engineering students, using the first version ...
متن کاملCoarse Writing-style Clustering Based on Simple Stroke-related Features
Two methods are presented for the automatic detection of generic writing styles like e.g. mixed, cursive and handprint. Based on a set of handwritten words, three features are determined: a cursivity index , which indicates the tendency of a writer to write cursive, and two distance measures and . The distance measures represents the distance between the stroke feature vectors in the input hand...
