Scalable privacy preserving intelligence analysis for resolving identities (SPIRIT)
The SPIRIT project will take a novel approach in the development, testing, training and evaluation of a new scalable privacy preserving intelligence analysis for resolving identities system prototype.
Expected results
The SPIRIT project 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 on those graphs.

About SPIRIT

The SPIRIT project will take a novel approach in the development, testing, training and evaluation of a new scalable privacy preserving intelligence analysis for resolving identities system prototype.

SPIRIT will start the initial development phase focussing on the use cases provided by the End User Partners wrapped in the privacy by design blanket to establish an early prototype that will be installed in each of the End User Partners’ offices. The system will utilise anonymised data sets combined with developed functionality to trawl through open source data securely behind each partner Forces’ firewall and security systems.

Face extraction and matching

SPIRIT use state-of-the-art technologies to extract and analyse faces in images and videos that have been crawled. By using compact face representations these face entities can be linked across web pages based on the similarity of detected faces. (They can also been matched against query images uploaded to the SPIRIT platform).
