Agent architecture for criminal mobile devices identification systems

Abstract

Current techniques of language identification are based on a method that assigns one or more textual documents into a set of predefined languages that are relevant to page contents. In this paper, we proposed an agent architecture that is used in criminal mobile devices identification systems. It is based on the usage of a software agent to process at least one document by using a dictionary that belong to a set of languages in order to determine the type of language features to be used in the text preprocessing module. Then, the agent will map at least one of the documents with the content of the dictionary in order to identify the languages used in the text by the language identification agent. Finally, the digital forensic agent will check the potential criminal short messages through the predefined keyword repository of corresponding language. Form our experiments, the agent architecture has been able to identify correctly the types of languages written in the short text messaging (SMS) system.
