Abstract | The study exercises computational linguistics, specifically chemical linguistics methods for profiling an author. We analyze the vocabulary and the style of the titles of the most visible works of Cristofor I. Simionescu, an internationally well-known chemist, for detecting specific patterns of his research interests and methods. Somewhat surprisingly, while the tools used are elementary and there is only a small number of words in the analysis, some interesting details emerged about the work of the analyzed personality. Some of these aspects were confirmed by experts in the field. We believe this is the first study aiming to author profiling in chemical linguistics, moreover the first to question the usefulness of Google Scholar for author profiling. |
