# Modified Victorian Era Authorship Attribution Dataset

## About

This data set is a modified version of the one that can be found [here](https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Victorian+Era+Authorship+Attribution).

The difference being that the training dataset was split into two parts: 80% training, 20% testing with labels. 
Splitting was done with a random stratified sample approach.
This is different than the source dataset which did not have any labels for the testing data.

Additionally, all text has been converted to UTF-8 format and any errors were ignored.

The original testing data is not included with this release.
