Abstract :
Criminal network investigation involves a number of complex tasks and faces many problems. Overall tasks include collection, processing, and analysis of information, in which analysis is the key to successful use of information, it transforms raw data into intelligence. Problems such as information abundance or scarcity and information complexity are typically resolved by adding more manpower resources, inhibiting information sharing. This paper presents a novel tool that supports a human-centered, target-centric model for criminal network investigation. The developed tool provides more comprehensive support for analysis tasks than existing tools.
