Transactions are clustered and reclustered according to their similarities and then explored for patterns of keywords, distribution within and between clusters, amount of activity or amount of money transferred, and other factors. Multiple interlinked views are maintained so that users can rapidly navigate from overviews to particular views of keyword correlations, transactional activity, or even the details of specific transactions. These methods are being applied to investigations of wireless transfer transactions for possible money laundering. The process here is similar in several ways to intelligence analysis. The tools are general and can be applied to other types of transactional analysis over time.
