Mass Evidence Accumulation and Traveler Risk Scoring Engine in e-Border Infrastructure

This paper is concerned with mass evidence accumulation and risk assessment in a particular component of transportation systems and e-borders. We outline the challenges faced by contemporary border control technology and conduct a series of demonstrative experiments that cover critical scenarios, tasks, and states of both evidence accumulation and the traveler risk scoring engine. Using technology gap navigator methodology, this paper suggests an approach to traveler risk estimation based on a unified inference platform, such as a causal graphical model with various incorporated metrics of uncertainty.
