FactWeave

FactWeave® uniquely addresses the big data challenge by introducing an intelligent “knowledge layer” that enhances analyst productivity

What is FactWeave®?

The FactWeave® product family provides a suite of tools for processing, analyzing, and publishing Object-Based Intelligence (OBI) and Activity-Based Intelligence (ABI). FactWeave eases the burden on analysts as they compile and analyze multi-source information, employing artificial intelligence (AI) and automation techniques to enhance analyst productivity. This gives analysts more time to spend on fruitful analysis tasks that address key intelligence questions and priorities. FactWeave addresses end-to-end OBI/ABI production, from source processing, to “Fact-weaving”, to fusion and structured analysis, to knowledgebase management and sharing, to intelligence production, to publishing, dissemination, and the use of its structured analytic products.

FactWeave® establishes a foundation of semantic coherence throughout fusion-analytic-awareness processes, which is crucial to automation and machine-reasoning

FactWeave Elements

FactWeave Elements builds and maintains the knowledge foundations for the FactWeave knowledgebase. It lets users register, search, update, inspect, delete, curate, and manage multiple version-controlled digital assets, models, and vocabularies (i.e., “elements”). This includes ontologies, schema, and controlled vocabularies. Users can perform searches for specific elements, across all registered elements, or within a select search scope.

FactWeave advances the analytic enterprise from human-intensive data-centric operations to more efficient and effective machine-intensive knowledge-centric operations

FactWeave Analyzer

FactWeave Analyzer is a collaborative analysis tool that allows analysts to capture, classify, curate, analyze, exploit, and share collections of structured knowledge (Facts) about any subject of interest. Using Analyzer, analysts can “connect-the-dots”, identify and fill information gaps, and derive insights that facilitate shared understanding of complex intelligence situations, addressing Key Intelligence Questions (KIQs) and Essential Elements of Information (EEI) across multiple data sources. FactWeave Analyzer is the central analyst tool within the FactWeave product family.

FactWeave Analyzer helps analysts find the veritable “needle in the (Big Data) haystack”

Build and Exploit a FactWeave Knowledgebase

Distill big data into useful, curated knowledge. Establish a foundation of semantic coherence throughout fusion-analytic-awareness processes. Assist analysts throughout their complex analytic workflows. Reveal and mitigate bias. Cope with uncertainty. Calibrate hypotheses and analytic arguments. Validate and share actionable intelligence.

kNotes

kNotes (“knowledge notes”) are the structured knowledge building blocks of the FactWeave Knowledgebase. kNotes can be constructed for any subject of interest. kNotes are comprised of a collection of verified Facts, each with supporting or refuting evidence.

kNarrative

kNarratives (“knowledge narratives”) are analyst-crafted intelligence reports that are infused with Fact-based kNotes, SmartMaps, and other structured analysis artifacts. They address Key Intelligence Questions and contain the results of collaboratively-developed analytic arguments. Because they are semantically-grounded by constituent kNotes and Facts, they too benefit from machine reasoning.

SmartLens

SmartLens is a specialized service that combines a wide variety of analytic (computational) and reasoning (logic-based) techniques to filter, interpret, and make sense of the contents of the FactWeave Knowledgebase. SmartLens services readily finds indicators, patterns, trends and behaviors that analysts would ordinarily have a hard time finding.
