Previous AI Lab Research

DIBBS for ISI This NSF-funded Data Infrastructure Building Blocks pilot demonstration project is intended to make available a wide range of data sets useful for the study of intelligence and security informatics.
SaTC: Hacker Web With a highly inter-disciplinary team, the Hacker Web project aims to answer the important questions about hacker behaviors, markets, community structure, communication contents, artifacts and cultural differences.
Dark Web and GeoPolitical Web Research The AI Lab Dark Web project is a long-term scientific research program that aims to study and understand the international terrorism (Jihadist) phenomena via a computational, data-centric approach.
Authorship Analysis To develop text mining and data mining techniques to support automated extraction and inference of regulatory pathways from biomedical literature and experimental data.
Data Warehousing - COPLINK / BorderSafe / RISC Cross-jurisdictional information sharing, analysis, visualization and research for the law enforcement and intelligence community for border and national security.
Sports Data Mining Sports data mining includes data mining, web mining, web mashups, and cloud computing in various sports related applications. Dr. Chen published the first Sports Data Mining book in 2010.
BioPortal™ for Disease Surveillance Use of the BioPortal system will improve the ability of public health practitioners to detect and maintain situational awareness of outbreaks of emerging diseases and bioterrorist attacks.
Genomic Pathway Visualizer Developed text mining and data mining techniques to support automated extraction and inference of regulatory pathways from biomedical literature and experimental data.
Digital Libraries Developed techniques to enhance information retrieval and knowledge management of large digital collections.
Information Analysis and Visualization A graphical interface that summarized the discussion content and participants behavior from an archive of a computer mediated communication (CMC) process.
Intelligence and Security Informatics The development of advanced information technologies, systems, algorithms, and databases for national security-related applications, through an integrated technological, organizational, and policy-based approach.
SpidersRUs To study the research issues involved, we designed and implemented a toolkit, called SpidersRUs, for multilingual search engine creation.
OOHAY - Visualizing the Web The project integrated system and human-generated classification systems and created a high-performance digital library classification system (i.e., the OOHAY system).
Workgroup and Collaborative Computing Examined and experimented with knowledge management techniques for groupware and CSCW systems.
Multilingual Systems Developed techniques to support cross-Language Information Retrieval (CLIR) and cross-lingual semantic interoperability.
