New #paper out: « Code #stylometry vs formatting and minification »
https://peerj.com/articles/cs-2142/ , where we show how much current code stylometry techniques (i.e., how to automatically detect the author of a source code snippet) are resistent to automatic code formatting and minification. (Spoiler: not much, authors can still be identified after those source-to-source transformations.) Available #openaccess on #PeerJ CS.
