CDC EZ-Text CDC EZ-Text is a software program developed to assist researchers create, manage, and analyze semi-structured qualitative databases.

Statistics and Surveillance

Researchers can design a series of data entry templates tailored to their questionnaire. These questionnaires are usually administered during face-to-face interviews with a sample of respondents. A response to a question may be entered into EZ-Text either as a verbatim transcript (e.g., from a tape recording), or a summary generated from the interviewer's notes. Data from respondents can be typed directly into the templates or copied from word processor documents. Download copies of the EZ-Text software and user documentation free of charge. If you have further questions or problems, please send an email message to: eztext@cdc.gov. Weft QDA - a free, open-source tool for qualitative data analysis.

Weft QDA is (or was) an easy-to-use, free and open-source tool for the analysis of textual data such as interview transcripts, fieldnotes and other documents.

Xanalys specialise in providing powerful software capabilities in threat assessment, Investigative major case management and advance crime and fraud analytics.

Indexer

Our suite of solutions combines predictive analytics with advanced social network analysis to identify suspicious behaviours more accurately than other solutions. Xanalys, let nothing escape you. Organizations across the globe deploy Xanalys technology to optimise their investigative capabilities, collect and analyse data and create intelligence that they can act upon. For organisations and agencies that need to record the occurrence of incidents, launch investigations, create and assign actions, analyse intelligence, and produce evidence that ensures successful outcomes – XIM provides a collaborative, secure environment for investigative teams to conduct and manage complex investigations.

It contains hundreds of social network, dynamic network metrics, trail metrics, procedures for grouping nodes, identifying local patterns, comparing and contrasting networks, groups, and individuals from a dynamic meta-network perspective. LexisNexis Analytics. Casemap. P-graphs and Pajek. The p-graph is designed to graphically represent social networks that include, but are not limited to, kinship and marriage ties.

P-graphs and Pajek

In the general case there are two types of vertices in these graphs. One type of vertex represents organizations: families, business, or other groups to which individuals belong. The other type of vertex represents an individual and a linkage between this individual and a group. This second type of vertex exemplifies the defining feature of p-graphs: it has a maximum outdegree of two directed arcs, and the relation between vertices defined by these arcs is one of strict (temporal) order. The first type of arc is constrained by definition to these same conditions. Program Pajek for large network analysis has been implemented in various versions of the p-graph format.

Network_analysis [Pajek Wiki] AutoMap: Project. Overview | People | Sponsors | Publications | Hardware Requirements | Software | Training & Sample Data AutoMap is a text mining tool developed by CASOS at Carnegie Mellon.

AutoMap: Project

Input: one or more unstructured texts. Output: DyNetML files and CS files. AutoMap is designed to work seamlessly with ORA. AutoMap enables the extraction of information from texts using Network Text Analysis methods. AutoMap exists as part of a text mining suite that includes a series of pre-processors for cleaning the raw texts so that they can be processed and a set of post-processor that employ semantic inferencing to improve the coding and deduce missing information.

CASOS Tools: Computational Models and Social Network Tools. Octave. GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation. Octave is normally used through its interactive command line interface, but it can also be used to write non-interactive programs. The Octave language is quite similar to Matlab so that most programs are easily portable. Home. Open Source Reporting, Business Intelligence Reporting & Business Reporting.

Palantir, ANB, etc. If you are in garrison or some strategic intel center with tons of manning and lots of connectivity, Palantir seems to be a decent tool. Because every record is hand tagged, it can produce nice high quality results. However, I'd be concerned about depending on Palantir on four fronts. HOLMES 2 - Home Office Large Major Enquiry System. The UK Police Service approach to the investigation of serial and serious crimes is based on a standard process that has proved its success over the last two decades. The information management systems that support this process have also been standardised. The UK Police Service and Unisys have made a significant investment in the HOLMES 2 project that underpins this standard approach. The result of this investment is the HOLMES 2 solution. i2 - Analyst's Notebook. The global threat of crime and terrorism is ever present around the world.

Enemies and bad guys are creative, adaptive and sophisticated, making it difficult to predict and prevent the threats they pose.
