A group of Russian computer specialists has teamed up with Muslim scholars to create a computer program that automatically detects accounts used by Islamic State terrorists to lure new members into their group.
The project was started by the non-commercial Center for Research of Legitimacy and Political Protest. Its director Yevgeny Venediktov told Izvestia daily that the search for terrorist recruiters will use a program called “Laplace's Demon” that was developed by the center’s IT specialists in the spring.
Venediktov explains the “demon” searches for accounts with possible connections to Islamic State (IS, previously known as ISIL and ISIS) and transfers the contacts to the center’s specialists in Islam and Arabic studies. According to developers the program looks for distorted quotes from the Koran and statements and comments in Arabic typical of extremists.
