The aim of this thesis is to provide an overview of some of the commonly used methods in the area of authorship attribution (stylometry). The text begins with a recap of history from the end of the 19th century to present time and the required terminology from the field of text mining is presented and explained. What follows is a list of selected methods from the field of multidimensional statistics (principal components analysis, cluster analysis) and machine learning (Support Vector Machines, Naive Bayes) and their application as pertains to stylometrical problems, including several methods created specifically for use in this field (bootstrap consensus tree, contrast analysis). Finally these same methods are applied to a practical problem of authorship verification based on a corpus bulit from the works of four internet writers.
