(A) Data in the Life:
Authorship Attribution of Lennon-McCartney Songs by Mark Glickman,

has been published
in the inaugural issue of the peer-reviewed journal, the
Harvard Data Science Review (HDSR). The
print version (which will be a bundling
of the first two online HDSR issues) will be ready in October. The journal
graciously funded the development of several interactive demos that
will be embedded within the online version on the HDSR site. The online
version contains sound samples to illustrate the relevant musical
concepts on which our analyses rely.
The published paper reflects an
improved model over that which was reported earlier in the media, and
all details are included in the article.
