Abstract
Terrorist organizations attain their goals by attacking various targets to jeopardize human lives and intimidate governments. As new terrorist attacks almost always aim to break the mold of old plots, tracing the dynamic behaviors of terrorists becomes crucial to national defense. This paper proposes using active modeling in analyzing unconventional attacks in the design of counterterrorism system. The intelligent terrorism detection system not only detects potential threats by monitoring terrorist networks with identified threat patterns, but also continually integrates new threat features in terrorist behaviors and the varying relationships among terrorists.
