Abstract: Abstract. The author identification task at PAN-2013 focuses on author verification where given a set of documents by a single author and a questioned document, the problem is to determine if the questioned document was written by that particular author or not. In this paper we present the evaluation setup, the performance measures, the new corpus we built for this task covering three languages and the evaluation results of the 18 participant teams that submitted their software. Moreover, we survey the characteristics of the submitted approaches and show that a very effective meta-model can be formed based on the output of the participant methods.
