Gila Molcho, Sebastian Maier, Felipe Melero, Carlo Aliprandi · 2014
European Law Enforcement Agencies are increasingly more reliant on information and communication technologies and are affected by a society shaped by the Internet and social media. The richness and quantity of information available from open sources, if properly gathered and processed, can provide valuable intelligence and help drawing inference from existing closed source intelligence. CAPER is an Open Source INTelligence platform for the prevention of organized crime, created in cooperation with European LEAs. CAPER supports information sharing and multi-modal analysis of open and closed information sources, mainly based on Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Visual Analytics (VA) technologies.
