| Summary: | Computational Analysis of Terrorist Groups: Lashkar-e-Taiba provides an in-depth look at Web intelligence, and how advanced mathematics and modern computing technology can influence the insights we have on terrorist groups. This book primarily focuses� on one famous terrorist group known as Lashkar-e-Taiba (or LeT), and� how it operates.�After 10 years of counter Al Qaeda operations,� LeT is considered by many in the counter-terrorism community to be an even greater threat to the US and world peace than Al Qaeda. Computational Analysis of� Terrorist Groups: Lashkar-e-Taiba is the first book that demonstrates how to use modern computational analysis techniques including methods for big data analysis.� This book presents how to quantify both the environment in which LeT operate, and� the actions it took over a 20-year period, and represent it as a relational database table. This table is then mined using sophisticated data mining algorithms in order to gain detailed, mathematical, computational and statistical insights into LeT and its operations.�This book also provides a detailed� history of� Lashkar-e-Taiba based on extensive analysis conducted by� using open source information and public statements. Each chapter includes a case study, as well as� a slide describing the key results which are available on the authors web sites. Computational Analysis of� Terrorist Groups: Lashkar-e-Taiba is designed for a professional market composed of� government or military workers, researchers� and computer scientists working in the web intelligence field. Advanced-level students in computer science will also find this valuable as a reference book.
