Modern tools for optimizing investigations: Artificial intelligence, Big Data and mind maps

Abstract

The article focuses on the potential of modern information technologies (artificial intelligence, neural networks, Big Data, mind maps) to improve the investigation of crimes. This paper aims to theoretically justify the feasibility and find methods to enhance the investigation’s organizational and tactical support, utilizing modern IT potential. The primary emphasis is on the use of mind maps for structuring data to effectively put forward versions and plan the investigation. As a tool for radian thinking, they allow you to present the analysis materials compactly in a form convenient for onetime perception of large volumes of data. The authors note that the technologies under consideration open up new opportunities for automating the analysis of case materials, visualizing the connections between various interrelated events and objects, predicting their behavior in certain situations. However, their implementation faces a number of problems in organizational, personnel and scientific and methodological support. Digitalizing case materials and integrating technologies into investigations is key to solving the problem. The key solution is the creation of “human + AI” systems, where technologies complement, and do not replace a professional. The future of forensics is in the symbiosis of digital tools and expert thinking based on advanced achievements of science and technology.
