Accelerating Accumulated Data
In the quest to crunch more data to find anomalies in the data and seek out more data to sort through to catch International Terrorists we must be careful that the process is working. And as we continually make sure the data is correct we must also find ways to collect the most up to date data and the changes in the data faster.
We must accelerate the accumulated data as fast as it is secured. We know that many business industry sectors routinely share their data with the Federal Government and with the Department of Homeland Security. But what many do not seem to understand is that much of the data being collected is absolute garbage.
For instance often, online subscriptions to various publications ask for your age, date of birth or other personal information. Yet may I ask you if you have ever put in the correct information on every form? Absolutely not, but if you did you are a fool due to issues with identity theft. Therefore if you fill out the form wrong you have now put bogus information into the computer system, which will later be given to the authorities.
Now you see their data is completely full of crap and thus what good is it anyway? Unfortunately their systems do not have artificial intelligence to find erroneous information or figure into things probabilities. For instance when asking a woman her age if she is over forty she will lie at least 10-years.
If a system were to run thru all the data and have alternate “read between the lines” information on that data then it could work in probability filters to further screen out the bogus data with potential more likely scenarios. I believe with the rate at which we collect the data we need to be sure to filter out much of the bogus mess which exists otherwise we really need to can all the data and start over you see? Consider this in 2006.
