QUIN: Providing Integrated Analysis Support to Crime Investigators

conference paper
Crime investigators heavily rely on their large knowledge of criminal behavior. When investigating a new case, applying this knowledge can lead to cognitive overload and tunnel vision. Some support systems are developed to search through historical data and knowledge more easily, but still require the investigator to put all the pieces together and ask the right question. In this paper we present QUIN, a support system that can model different crime scenarios and reason about what happened. For this it uses expert knowledge and historical data. Investigating with QUIN provides a solid overview of current knowledge of the case, a clear view on likely scenarios and suggestions on what to look for in order to advance the investigation.
