Web Data Mining to Detect Online Spread of Terrorism:
Data mining is a new powerful technology which is of high interest in computer world. It is a sub field of computer science that uses already existing data in different databases to transform it into new researches and results. It makes use of Artificial Intelligence, machine learning and database management to extract new patterns from large data sets and the knowledge associated with these patterns. The actual task is to extract data by automatic or semi-automatic means. The different parameters included in datamining includes clustering, forecasting, path analysis and predictive analysis.
Data mining has many applications in the fields of telecommunication industry, financial data analysis biological data analysis and much more. A lot of data is available regarding personality classification over the internet especially on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram etc. The analysis of such a large amount of data is very hard and requires excessive knowledge. Data mining has been applied in Automatic Personality Classification and for better prediction or classification of people based on their demographics or Personalities. This classification is necessary in investigation of criminals and terrorism activities being planned over the internet.
Terrorism has dug deep, its roots in certain countries of the world especially in countries like Pakistan, Afghanistan etc. because of increase in the terrorism activities, it has become necessary to end terrorism as it has greatly affected the life of innocent common people of the world. Internet is a vast source that can be utilized as a platform to brain wash minds of people through posts and videos than can manipulate people to start supporting terrorist groups. Internet can also be used to plan out different terrorist activities and can be used to create web pages that can motivate or inspire people through their activities and actions. It is important for the government agencies especially for the criminal investigating agencies to put an end to such webpages, videos, or post from the internet that can likely cause people to start supporting terrorists.
Many students during their final year are very enthusiastic to develop such systems that can filter suspicious activities doing on across the internet. Not only the suspicious activities but also the video, tags, pages, and discussion forums that may feel to be in support of terrorist groups. Final year project feels like a great chance for students to make one such system using data/web mining technique along with other tools that can be used to mine out the patterns of useful data from large data sets. Data mining algorithms designed should be efficient enough to suit web technology of every kind to dig huge amount of data. Web pages are designed in HTML language and have videos, images and textual information all in various arrangements.
So the systems design should be smart enough to filter out information relevant to terrorism. In this manner it can be judged easily if sites needs to be blocked or not. The system is very useful to control terrorism activities by marking sites inappropriate for human review.
