Eder Maciej

Maciej Eder is the director of the Institute of Polish Language, Polish Academy of Sciences, and associate professor at the Pedagogical University, Krakow, Poland. He is interested in European literature of the Renais- sance and the Baroque, classical heritage in early modern literature, and quantitative approaches to literary works. These include measuring style using statistical methods, authorship attribution based on quantitative measures, as well as "distant reading" methods to analyse dozens (or hundreds) of literary works at a time. His recent work is focused on methodological issues of stylometry, including the problem of a minimal sam- ple size for reliable authorship attribution, the impact of systematic noise on attribution, and so on. Eder is the principal author of the stylometric package Stylo.
