Title
Simplified features for email authorship identification
Abstract
We present an investigation analysis approach for mining anonymous email content. The core idea behind our approach is concentrated on collecting various effective features from previous emails for all the possible suspects. The extracted features are then used with several machine learning algorithms to extract a unique writing style for each suspect. A sophisticated comparison between the investigated anonymous email and the suspects writing styles is employed to extract evidence of the possible email sender. Extensive experimental results on a real data sets show the improved performance of the proposed method with very limited number of features.
