• Giant Oak

Giant Oak was created to combine behavioral social science and computer science methodologies to build “big data” tools that combat criminal activities. The Giant Oak team integrates social and behavioral scientists, software engineers, and domain experts to bridge the gap between the technology needed to store and process “big data” and the ability to extract meaningful knowledge from it for front line analysts in the financial and federal sectors.
