Machine Learning’s Importance in Airport Border Control

August 25, 2018

As border control departments invest in new technologies for passenger screening, machine learning platforms are tested by them to assess risks of individual travelers faster and more effectively.

Passenger data screening is being revolutionized with today’s cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. As globalization increases, more people travel and cross borders daily. Threats continue to rise, presenting a difficulty for immigration departments to be fully aware of all dangerous passengers ready to enter their borders. New measures must be taken to ensure optimal safety of borders.

The rapidly shifting nature of security models means many are out of date and require artificial intelligence tools, not only including facial recognition technology. Automated machine learning speeds up the process of passenger screening while incorporating big data analysis. Nowadays, most border controls rely on basic pattern matching systems to decide to single out a threat, demanding a blend of multiple sources, or several pieces of evidence in real time.

Novel advancements in predictive analysis provide border control agencies the ability extend investigation far beyond cumulative learning from historical patterns. Border control personnel can now leverage results with the use of statistical analysis, detecting patterns that may signify fresh, surfacing threats that were not yet detected.

A few insightful tools for efficient analysis:

– Predictive/Statistical Analysis – automatically notify users with alerts when abnormal activity or suspicious behaviors diverging from the
ordinary are detected.
– Analysis of relationships – connections between passengers, their close circles and other travelers.

Government organizations investing resources in essential technologies and infrastructures is absolutely critical to their teams. The provision of targeting tools that are fueled with advanced machine learning algorithm means a win-win for government organizations, civilians and legit travelers, along with consignments, gaining increased accuracy, efficiency and ultimately security. The prediction of threats is absolutely critical for authorities to maintain, and doing so with leveraged precision maximizes border security procedures, while preventing illegal activities and crime.
