PRESS: Rostec to develop special software to predict civil unrest

MOSCOW, Nov 30 (PRIME) -- Russian state corporation Rostec is working on special software that will help federal and regional authorities to predict civil unrest and prevent its escalation, and the system will analyze media reports, social media data, information from smart cameras and other, business daily Kommersant reported on Tuesday.

Rostec’s National Center of Informatization will develop the special software program by 2022 for predictive analytics of rallies and unrest, a source familiar with the situation told the daily. The work is done under the Emergency Situations Ministry’s project Safe City, on which the ministry will need 97 billion rubles by 2030.

The system will be exploited by the executive power authorities at the municipal and regional levels.

The special software program’s goal is to predict emergence of mass disorders and dynamics of their development in the short-term, Andrei Mishurny, head of Safe City’s project office at Rostec’s United Instrument Manufacturing Corporation said, adding that the system will be based on machine learning methods.

If disorders have already started, artificial intelligence will study crowd behavior and advise law enforcers how to act.
