**Speaker**: Patrick Juola, Joseph A. Lauritis, C.S.Sp Endowed Chair in Teaching and Technology, Duquesne University

**Title**: Forensic Linguistics: Casework and Empirical Demonstrations

**Abstract**: Forensic linguistics is a relatively undersubscribed subfield of forensic science, which focuses on developing legal conclusions from linguistic evidence. In this talk, we discuss the theory and practice of "authorship attribution" (aka "stylometry") and some of its applications (such as identifying the author of a ransom note). Examples are drawn from actual analyses drawn both from the literature and from the presenter's own casework.
