How does I Write Like work?
Quote:
The algorithm pretty simple, and you can find it on every computer today. It’s a Bayesian classifier, which is widely used to fight spam on the Internet. Take for example the “Mark as spam” button in Gmail or Outlook. When you receive a message that you think is spam, you click this button, and the internal database gets trained to recognize future messages similar to this one as spam. This is basically how “I Write Like” works: I feed it with the whole text of Frankenstein and tell it, “This is Mary Shelley. Recognize works similar to this as Mary Shelley.” Of course, the algorithm is slightly different from the one used to detect spam, because it takes into account more stylistic features of the text, such as the number of words in sentences, the number of commas, semicolons, and whether the sentence is a direct speech or a quotation.

I took this test years back and was pleased that my writing sample returned that I was most like my beloved James Joyce. A more recent writing sample this evening returned that I write like H. P. Lovecraft, which was similarly satisfying.
I searched the forum but don't see any results for the test as having been posted previously. Forgive me if it was. Post your results and your thoughts about them!
