Description Authorship verification is wildly discussed topic at these days. In the authorship verification problem, we are given examples of the writing of an author and are asked to determine if given texts were or were not written by this author. In this paper we present an algorithm using syntactic analysis system SET for verifying authorship of the documents. We propose three variants of two-class machine learning approach to authorship verification. Syntactic features are used as attributes in suggested algorithms and their performance is compared to established word-lenth distribution features. Results indicate that syntactic features provide enough information to improve accuracy of authorship verification algorithms.
