Experiments were conducted to test several hypotheses on methods for improving document classification for the malicious insider
threat problem within the Intelligence Community. Bag-of-words (BOW) representations of documents were compared to Natural
Language Processing (NLP) based representations in both the typical and one-class classification problems using the Support
Vector Machine algorithm. Results show that the NLP features significantly improved classifier performance over the BOW approach
both in terms of precision and recall, while using many fewer features. The one-class algorithm using NLP features demonstrated
robustness when tested on new domains.
