Visualization Tool Helps Law Enforcement Identify Human Trafficking​

A data visualization tool developed in part by SCS researchers could assist law enforcement agencies working to combat human trafficking by identifying patterns in online escort advertisements that often indicate illegal activity.

A data visualization tool developed by School of Computer Science researchers, collaborators from other universities and experts in the field could assist law enforcement agencies working to combat human trafficking by identifying patterns in online escort advertisements that often indicate illegal activity. TrafficVis, which helps analysts visualize data pulled from millions of ads, recently received a best paper honorable mention at IEEE VIS 2022, one of the top visualization conferences.

TrafficVis uses data collected by InfoShield and similar algorithms designed to scan and cluster similarities in the text of online ads to help law enforcement direct their investigations and better identify human traffickers and their victims. SCS researchers also worked on InfoShield, which can collate millions of advertisements and highlight common phrasing or duplication among them. Since a trafficker may write ads for several victims, it is highly likely that clustering commonalities will point to something suspicious.

TrafficVis is the first interface for cluster-level human trafficking detection and labeling. Experts can use the tool to label clusters as human trafficking or other suspicious — but nonhuman — trafficking activity such as spam and scam. This will quickly create labeled datasets to enable further human trafficking research. The team that designed TrafficVis included Computer Science Department Ph.D. students Catalina Vajiac, Meng-Chieh Lee and Namyong Park; computer science and machine learning faculty member Christos Faloutsos; Georgia Tech faculty and CMU alumnus Polo Chau; McGill University faculty Reihaneh Rabbany; and experts Andreas Olligschlaeger and Rebecca Mackenzie from Marinus Analytics, a CMU spin-off company that specializes in human trafficking detection.

Hi @Fact Finder, imagine how spun out we'd all be if the next iteration of AKIDA was called"ACE"?

Thanks to @Sam for providing the screenshot below from ChatGPT3.

Hi @Bravo

One of the things that academic papers require is footnotes referencing and attributing the source material.

Have you asked CHATGpt to write this article including Footnotes and References attributing the source materials?

Is so what happened?

I for one will be much happier with Sean doing the interview, ............. will probably get shot down, tho never have enjoyed RTs podcasts, especially of late.
God help us if Sean uses 10% of the podcast asking about "favourite super heroes" .................
Just a "inkling" ......... RT moved to "ecosystem guy" from "world wide sales" ............... BRN hiring more sales staff, ........... RT imo might just be on his "exit stage left"

Definitely with interest this next podcast.

AKIDA BALLISTA

not at all, can't agree about RT exiting, he is the man that would have pulled together the Intel Foundry Services given his role is VP of Ecosystems and Partnerships

I’m still picking up the bundle that I dropped last night I will be blown away if everything on that screen shot and the list of partners come to fruition 🫠🫠🫠

If I recall correctly, Ken Scarince stated that LDA cannot short or lend out shares.
That said, they are loan sharks. The alternative is a capital raise where we give shares to the Instos' at what, a 30% discount!!
Under the LDA model the Institutional investors have to buy on market along with retail investors and purchase at market prices.

I agree with with what you are saying FJ, but will also add that every time a draw down happens with the LDA deal, this same conversation has fired up, LDA are getting less than a 10% discount, "91.5% of the higher of the VWAP of shares of the pricing period"

The timing right now might seem counter intuitive, but Ken Scarince has timed these LDA Capital Call Notices to a nicety in the past, and as has been speculated here already by some posters, the timing would seem to indicate that there is some kind of price sensitive news lurking behind the curtain presently.

So I really don't think anyone in the mngmt at BRN, want to see their shareholdings diluted anymore than anyone on here does, so it would appear highly likely that something is coming very soon, because the end date for the exercise of the Put option "is anticipated in late March or early April".

With regard to Rob Telson he has obviously been applied diligently and doing a very good job expanding the eco-system, which has kind of exploded lately. On the podcasts some have been significantly better than others, however IMO Rob is a player, and if you are in sales and promotion you will not get anywhere if you can't let yourself play. Sales requires courage and conviction (it also helps a lot if you've got a decent product to work with), but the super hero thing encourages the people Rob is engaging with to be playful, it can come across as a bit flaky - but I like Rob's modus operandi there - if I am correct Rob is about taking the opportunity to be building good relationships anywhere he can - and that is definitely about being able to have fun.

A lot has happened since Rob came on board, and now more since Sean was appointed, having said all that, I've gotta say that I am a show me the money kind of guy, so if my above speculation re coming share price sensitive news is accurate - it can't come soon enough for me. My view of global markets going forward is somewhat less enthusiastic than some views posted here, so I definitely want to see our SP well above where it languishes right now.

Having said that I am not expecting a crash next week, but I have doubts about where the market will be - well within 5 years, but I could be wrong on that, and no-one would be happier than me if that was the case.

I thought I’d bring another round of crazy, apologies in advance but might be a bit of fun to see if we can find connections of sorts

Sorry again

I could show you some links between megachips, edge impulse, prophesee and Nvisio but for some strange reason the artificial intelligence is not listing those as partners of Brainchip in those screenshots

 

[Rise from the ashes]

Totally unrelated as are most of my posts
Was going to post an article which would be on topic but then read something within article that made me decide against it.

The whole inclusive thing
Let's be inclusive yet let's divide ourselves into separate labels.
Cheerio off for a couple of beers.

Just a thoughts on the podcast, why Mr Hehir, could it be, bringing on the big gun, to deal with giant, Mr Chatelain is a Managing Director.

"Exciting times" (JMHO)

Maybe it is as simple that Sean and Jean rhymes so it’s natural for Sean to take this one. Rob and Jean just doesn’t have the same effect.. or could it maybe be that Sean and Jean have good report from previous relations and Sean wanted to have a chat with an old buddy? Who knows, but to throw dirt on Rob and assume he is on his way out or any other of rubbish I have read her is just silly.

Time will tell. All is well.

Another shit day, but also another 10135 shares locked away from the shorters.

Another completely shit day, but also another 7352 shares locked away from the shorters.

I am pretty sure we (here) have been constructively exploring links and facts, with little to no consideration given to "hype".

I am also pretty sure that you have not read anything in this forum and that you just came in here to post your meme that probably got you a few giggles over at the crapper. Maybe you should return to your captive audience?

8.5% down was oversold/manipulated.
Nice little "pop"on close.

I think Sean is doing the podcast because he and Jean are related, possibly first cousins or something like that. At the very least they are friends, real close friends and if not, they are acquaintances according to the six degrees of separation.

Nope, Corio Bay near Geelong.
