An Entity Resolution Approach to Isolate Instances of Human Trafficking Online
Human trafficking is a challenging law enforcement problem, and traces of victims of such activity manifest as ‘escort advertisements’ on various online forums. Given the large, heterogeneous and noisy structure of this data, building models to predict instances of trafficking is a convoluted task. In this paper we propose an entity resolution pipeline using a notion of proxy labels, in order to extract clusters from this data with prior history of human trafficking activity. We apply this pipeline to 5M records from backpage.com and report on the performance of this approach, challenges in terms of scalability, and some significant domain specific characteristics of our resolved entities.
