This paper presents the first attempt, up to our knowledge, to classify English writing styles on this scale with the challenge of classifying day to day language written by writers with different backgrounds covering various areas of topics. The paper proposes simple machine learning algorithms and simple to generate features to solve hard problems.

We evaluate the performance of training the model on the GPU and present optimizations that boost the performance on the GPU. One of the key optimizations, we propose increases the performance of a function involved in calculating and updating the gradient by approximately 50 times on the GPU for sufficiently large batch sizes.
