Abstract :
Intelligence analysis is dependent on credible input data that comes from trusted and reliable sources. Open Source Information (OSINF) provides an abundance of data, but it comes with the price of noise, i.e., a lot of the data is irrelevant, ambiguous, contradicting, biased or plain wrong. Despite this, making full use of the wealth of data that OSINF encompasses would improve the quality of intelligence analysis.
