An algorithmic approach to social knowledge processing and reasoning based on graph representation - A case study

Abstract

The paper concludes our ideas on new concepts of indirect association analysis to extract useful information for terrorist threat indication. The method introduces an original approach to knowledge representation as a semantic model, which is further processed by the inference algorithms and structure graph analysis towards a complex network. Described models consist of experience gathered from intelligence experts and several open Internet knowledge systems such as the Global Terrorism Database [15]. We have managed to extract core information from several ontologies and fuse them into one domain model aimed at providing basis for indirect associations identification method. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
