What is it about?
Mistaken eyewitness identification is one of the leading causes of false convictions. Yet, no tool exists that can assist law enforcement in evaluating whether an eyewitness's lineup identification is accurate or not. For the first time, we show when the assistance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) can and cannot help people overcome a cognitive bias when judging the accuracy of an eyewitness's lineup identification. This project is a first step in evaluating how AI-assistance might be useful for law enforcement before adoption by the legal system.
