The SPIRIT project will take a novel approach in the development, testing, training and evaluation of a new scalable privacy preserving intelligence analysis for a resolving identities system prototype.
It will deliver a set of tools for the acquisition, analysis, modelling and visualisation of multimodal, multilingual and multimedia data (text, audio, video, image contents from closed and open sources, including the surface web, the deep web/dark nets and online social networks). The result is a platform that allows to create social graphs of heterogeneous named-entity relationships and to perform social and criminal network analysis. The SPIRIT toolbox will be developed under consideration of privacy by design concepts assisting LEAs in unravelling the hitherto complex world of identity resolution (is person A the same as person B) and will be transparent and ethically controlled.
