In other words, the so-called “record of interview” that convicted Jamieson couldn’t realistically have captured even the gist of a real conversation.

Even the quickest participant reached only 34% accuracy compared to the true transcript. Those typing at more realistic speeds — around 40 words per minute — captured barely 20% of what was said.

The idiolectal information in long character n-grams: An experiment using paraphrasing
Long character n-grams (n = 7-9) have been used successfully with the n-gram tracing algorithm for authorship analysis (Grieve et al. 2019) and their success is consistent with predictions of cognitiv...
