The question that arises when one is confronted with massive amounts of information from publicly available (i.e. open) sources is: What is the most efficient way of converting such unwieldy content collections into actionable intelligence?
SAIL LABS Text Mining System for OSINT provides an answer. It enables you to:

• Scan through emails, print media, government reports and other text documents as well as Web content without spending hours and days in front of the computer.
• Find, select, analyse and archive relevant information from various open sources.
• Ease your information processing with an indexed archive, a search interface and a summarized display of the sources.      

 Applications

• Content indexing: Content is indexed and annotated as soon as it is available.
• Keyword-triggered notification: Notifications can be sent to users whenever a specified keyword occurs.
• Multimedia editing and cataloguing: Structural summarization creates a base for efficient editing and cataloguing.
• Search engine for information retrieval from multimedia sources: Web-based search engines with multimedia search capabilities can be built.
• Business news monitoring for financial analysts: Movement of stocks, mutual funds, etc can be tracked for up-to-date financial analysis.
• Hosted services for mobile devices: Click on a topic in your mobile device to get the latest updates.
• Interactive news services: News can be personalized and delivered.
• Media analysis: In-depth subject-specific reports can be created rapidly by selective retrieval of information.

Like to see and hear “What was in the news about violent disturbances last month?” That’s a simple request. Yet it could take you hours, maybe days, to sift through a month of news in multimedia sources just to find and compile the relevant information.

Imagine: Relevant information a keystroke away!
Be able to:

• find a specific content by skipping all irrelevant segments,
• keep track of new relevant information via automatic notification,
• have a summarized view of the sources displayed in real time.

With the SAIL LABS Media Mining System for OSINT that’s possible: Unstructured data from multiple sources (TV, radio, podcasts, streaming media) is processed into structured, searchable and easily accessible information. During this process the audio input is transformed into an XML-Output, i.e. the speech content being transcribed, translated and indexed automatically by language, speaker, topic, name and keywords in real-time. The translated transcripts are displayed synchronously with the original audio document/video playback in the Internet Explorer.  

Key Functions:

• Real-time indexing
• Automatic speech recognition (speech-to-text)
• Transcription from multiple languages
• Speaker identification and segmentation
• Gender detection
• Keyword, machine and human translation
• Named entity and topic detection
• Story segmentation
• Alert mechanism

Supported Languages:

• Arabic (modern standard Arabic)
• English (US)
• English (US/UK)
• French
• German
• Greek
• Norwegian
• Polish
• Russian
• Spanish
• others under development
