Automatic Extraction of Deceptive Behavioral Cues from Video

Abstract

This research initiative is an initial investigation into a novel approach for deriving indicators of deception from video-taped interaction. The team utilized two-dimensional spatial inputs extracted from video to construct a set of discrete and inter-relational features. The features for thirty-eight video interactions were then analyzed using discriminant analysis. Additionally, features were used to build a multivariate regression model. Through this exploratory study, the team established the validity of the approach, and identified a number of promising features, opening the door for further investigation.

Portions of this research were supported by funding from the U. S. Department of Homeland Security (Cooperative Agreement N66001-01-X-6042). The views, opinions, and/or findings in this report are those of the authors and should not be construed as official Department of Homeland Security positions, policies, or decisions.
