Step 3: We would like to know the number of nouns, verbs and sentences in both the stories. Sherlock= open("Sherlock.txt", "r") Poirot= open("Poirot.txt", "r") Step 2: In the below code, the text file of “The Hound of the Baskervilles” “The Murder on the Links” download from Project Gutenberg is read. import spacy from spacy.matcher import Matcher nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_lg") matcher = Matcher(nlp.vocab) As the name suggests, the Matcher package will help in performing pattern-based search and will discuss in detail later in the article. First, all the package required are imported and also an NLP object is created by loading the pre-trained model “en_core_web_lg”. Step 1: We will be using the NLP packages NLTK and spaCy for the analysis. small, medium and large with increasing sizes and accuracy of prediction.Īs a prerequisite, we need to download the large model with below command. SpaCY provides three sizes of the pre-trained model viz. I have used the “ en_core_web_lg” general-purpose pre-trained models to predict named entities, part-of-speech tags and syntactic dependencies. I have downloaded the text version of “The Hound of the Baskervilles” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and “The Murder on the Links” by Agatha Christie from Project Gutenberg.
The main objective is to show how easy it is to perform natural language processing (NLP) with packages like NTLK and spaCY and provide an initial framework structure to self explore and deep dive other author’s writings. The framework and coding mentioned below are easily scalable, and I will highly encourage you all to try it will full sets of stories from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Agatha Christie. In my full analysis, I have considered ten stories from each author to draw the parallels, but for the sake of simplicity, I have explained the process with one story from each author in this article. In this article, I will perform the side by side analysis and the comparison of “The Hound of the Baskervilles” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and “The Murder on the Links” by Agatha Christie. It would be great if I could extract any insight into the successful detective story writing recipe with the help of Natural Language Processing(NLP). As a data scientist, I am curious to know if there are any similarities in the writing style of Arthur Conan Doyle and Agatha Christie. I am sure all of us enjoy reading the evergreen thrilling detective stories of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot.
