  1. Integrated Visual Analysis of Global Terrorism Remco Chang Charlotte Visualization Center UNC Charlotte

  2. Integrated Terrorism Analysis Multimedia Real Time Known Events Visual GTD

  3. Video Analysis Goals • to describetrends in news content over time • to discoverbreaking news and hot topics over time • to trace conceptual development of news • to retrievenews of interests effectively • to collect evidences and test hypotheses for intelligent analysis • to comparegroup (such as different channels) differences in content • to associatenews content with social events

  4. Multimedia Analysis

  5. Video Analysis Example CNN Fox News MSNBC • News contains view points and opinions • Find local, regional, national, and international reports of the same event to get a complete picture

  6. NVAC Collaborations • PNNL – A. Sanfilippo (Content Analysis and Information Extraction of closed caption) • PNNL – W. Pike (Emotional state extraction from closed caption) • Penn State – A. MacEachren (Geographical analysis) • Georgia Tech – J. Stasko (Jigsaw, entity relationships) • Visual Analytics is the point of integration!!

  7. Integrating Terrorism Data Analysisand News Analysis Terrorism Visual Analysis Terrorism Databases Terrorism VA Jigsaw NVAC Stab/ TIBOR Reasoning Environment Framing, Affective Analysis Broadcast VA News Visual Analysis News Story Databases Next: full, Web-based multimedia content

  8. Visual GTD Flow Chart Entity Relationships (Geo-temporal Vis) Dimensional Relationships (ParallelSets) Entity Analysis (Search By Example)

  9. WHO – Terrorist Groups Five Flexible Entry Components What WHERE~ WHEN

  10. Enter System by single or multiple Selections System will supply Specific Information Drilldown to Original Info

  11. Parallel Sets View • Parallel Sets • Displays relationships among categorical dimensions • Shows intersections and distributions of categories

  12. Parallel Sets View • Dynamic filtering on continuous dimensions can show more information • Here we see the large proportion of facility attacks and bombings in Latin America during the early 1980s

  13. Analysis using Longest Common Sequence (LCS) • Two strings of data (each representing a series of events) • GATCCAGT • GTACACTGAG • Basic algorithm returns length of longest common subsequence: 6 • Can return trace of subsequence if desired: • GTCCAG • GATCCAGT • GTACACTGAG • Additional variations can take into account event gap penalties, time gap penalties, and exploration of shorter, or alternate, common subsequences

  14. Grouping using MDS in 2D • Each o represents a terrorist group • Groups form cluster according to naturally occurring trend sizes • Sharp divide between large clusters in right hemisphere • Left hemisphere contains many smaller clusters MDS Analysis by TargetType
