Overview[]
The objective of the Evidence Extraction and Link Discovery (EELD) Program was to develop a suite of technologies that will automatically extract evidence about relationships among people, organizations, places, and things from unstructured textual data, such as intelligence messages or news reports, which are the starting points for further analysis.
In DARPA’s view, this information can point to the discovery of additional relevant relationships and patterns of activity that correspond to potential terrorist events, threats, or planned attacks.
