How Investigative Data Mining Can Help Intelligence Agencies to Discover Dependence of Nodes in Terrorist Networks

摘要

A new model of dependence centrality is proposed. The centrality measure is based on shortest paths between the pair of nodes. We apply this measure with the demonstration of a small network example. The comparisons are made with betweenness centrality. We discuss how intelligence investigation agencies could benefit from the proposed measure. In addition to that we argue about the investigative data mining techniques we are using, and a comparison is provided with traditional data mining techniques.
