Title
Applying automatic text-based detection of deceptive language to police reports: Extracting behavioral patterns from a multi-step classification model to understand how we lie to the police.
Abstract
•VeriPol is an effective text-based lie detection model for police reports.•Our model includes feature selection by L1 penalization and heuristic rules.•Computational experiments on a real dataset show a validation accuracy of 91.•A pilot study shows a lower bound on the empirical precision of 83%, approx.•The model analysis provides linguistic insights of how people lie to the police.
