I scraped each person's opening testimony as a dataset. I then split each person testimony into sentences. I built a model to predict who wrote a sentence given it's features (bigrams of words and characters).
Applying model to each sentence of resistance article gave a probability that a cabinent member wrote that sentence.
I set a threshold of .1 for each sentence probability; if a person recieved a probability greater than .1 then they were giving a 1 else 0 for that particular sentence. The above ranking is the sum of those scores.
