Scalable privacy preserving intelligence analysis for resolving identities
SPIRIT project takes up a holistic approach to identity resolution and will develop a semantically rich sense-making capability to facilitate cognitive tasks in the resolution of identity in full operational compliance with data and privacy protection as operationally assured through workflow-embedded data anonymisation and privacy filtering techniques as required, whilst retaining maximum possibly informativeness of data that can be legally used. Thus SPIRIT  will provide capabilities to continuously initiate complex associative searches over all sources relevant to the current investigation, correlate information from multimedia data, reason over information with uncertainty, and structure and manipulate information into a unified view of the available evidence over a persisted, searchable knowledge base. The final goal is to empower the investigator to create a semantically rich picture over all the available evidence to be presented at court.
