A python port of Darius Kazemi's "Aphorism detection for fun but definitely not profit" -- http://tinysubversions.com/notes/aphorism-detection

Aphorism Detection in Python

After reading Darius Kazemi's post, "Aphorism detection for fun but definitely not profit", I wanted in -- I've done a number of text-focused bots, but none that did anything more advanced than tokenizing things and making use of ngrams with Markov chains. I have some experience with NLP in Python so thought it would be fun to port it.

The essence of Darius's algorithm is:

  • Read in Corpus
  • Tokenize corpus into sentences
  • Filter out sentences that match a few basic patterns
