Abstract

This study explores the use of function words for authorship attribution in modern Chinese (C-FWAA). This study consists of three tasks: (1) examine the C-FWAA effectiveness in three genres: novel, essay, and blog; (2) compare the strength of function words as both genre and authorship indicators, and explore the genre interference on C-FWAA; (3) examine whether C-FWAA is sensitive to the time periods when the texts were written.
