Stylometric Provenance
Four stylometric instruments measuring how this prose patterns against an AI-generated baseline.
Composite distance
1.05
weighted sum of the four signals below
Each instrument measures one axis of stylistic distance from the LLM baseline (n=30). Larger values mean the prose sits further from the baseline centroid. The composite weights function-word distribution at 0.5, the others at 0.2 / 0.2 / 0.1.
