Abstract:
This research proposes a method to detect the dark triads from a person’s social media behavior. Currently there is a spread of lies and deception in the online community. Our proposed method gets a person’s most recent Social media updates and predicts a person’s Narcissism, Psychopathy, Machiavellianism. These three characteristics are part of The Dark Triads. We receive the data from Facebook and take surveys to get the class label. We treat this as a binary classification problem. We tested across several supervised machine learning algorithm and received reasonable amount of accuracy.
