Terrorist Attack Network Datasets

This collection consists of annotated networks developed from documents related to various terrorist attacks in India. Each dataset is named after a specific case and visualizes relationships and interactions among individual entities involved in these incidents. These networks are instrumental for analyzing key actors, hierarchies, and patterns within terrorist organizations. Below is an overview of each file:

• TerroristData1 : Captures the network associated with the 2001 Parliament attack in India. This dataset outlines connections between key individuals, detailing both direct and inferred associations critical for understanding the network structure behind this event.
• TerroristData2: Represents the network surrounding the 1996 Dausa blast, in which a bomb exploded in a Rajasthan State Transport Corporation (RSTC) bus traveling from Agra to Bikaner. The explosion occurred at Samleti village in Dausa district, Rajasthan, killing 14 people and injuring 37. The incident took place a day after a similar blast in Delhi’s Lajpat Nagar. This dataset captures the interactions among involved individuals and entities, shedding light on the logistical and operational aspects of this tragic event.
• TerroristData3 : Documents the network based on the 2008 Mumbai 26/11 attacks. It highlights the coordination among individuals and entities involved in the planning and execution, giving insights into the operational dynamics of the group.
• TerroristData4: Visualizes the network behind the assassination of former Prime Minister of India, Mr. Rajiv Gandhi. The dataset details the connections and hierarchy within the network involved in the plot, showcasing the organizational structure and chain of command.
• TerroristData5: Maps the network involved in the 1993 Bombay blasts, displaying connections between perpetrators, facilitators, and key locations involved in the coordinated attacks across Mumbai.

These datasets are a resource for studying the structure and influence of clandestine networks in terrorist operations. They can support research on network centrality, influence analysis, and resilience, offering insights into the organizational dynamics of terror groups
