One of the presenters will be Matt Roper from BYU’s Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship. Roper will be discussing exciting new computerized statistical technology that allows accurate author identification with sample blocks as small as 2,000 words.  Previous techniques have required 5,000 word blocks. This improved technology means more Book of Mormon authors have now been analyzed stylistically and shown to have distinct and statistically identifiable wordprints.
