In the past year, awareness has grown of the power of small online actions to exert disproportionately large real-world influence. Gemedy SKEIN – a System for Knowledge Extraction via Influence Networks – provides an intuitive web interface that allows enterprise users to scan a range of data sources and time scales for evidence of such influence. SKEIN then visualizes any uncovered networks of influence and provides recommendations for either leveraging or counteracting those networks.

"Today's release of SKEIN is an example of Gemedy's technical leadership in machine learning and artificial intelligence," said Dr. Alex Wissner-Gross, President and Chief Scientist of Gemedy. "SKEIN’s ability to detect and exploit causal relationships that might otherwise go unnoticed helps enterprises maximize the value of their existing data."

SKEIN supports a variety of industrial verticals and applications, including:

  • Advertising: Detecting and maximizing the influence of advertising on behavior
  • Energy & Utilities: Anticipating supply and demand fluctuations
  • Financial Services: Tracing risk through financial and insurance markets
  • Healthcare: Identifying the sources of infectious disease
