Data mining

I spent some spare time hanging out with sociologists a few years back. One result was a paper on Agile in a sociology book (The Mangle in Practice: look for it from your nearest Duke University Press outlet sometime “soon”.) The co-editor is going to do research in data mining and counterterrorism. He writes:

The dream of course would be to locate people who have actually written data mining programs related to counterterrorism. […] If that proves impossible, I would just be interested in interviewing people who have experience designing data mining programs for other applications.

If you are such a person, mail me, and I’ll put you two in touch. He’s a good guy. He spent time riding in police cars to domestic violence calls, sitting in court, talking to perpetrators, etc. Interesting stories.
