Abstract :
This paper is the second part of our work. In the companion paper, we have highlighted the need to analyze terrorism events in Pakistan, in order to extract patterns which could provide useful information to counter terrorism authorities. We identified two different combinations for our analysis, i.e., “Terrorism Event - Terrorism Target” and “Terrorism Event - Terrorism Method”. In the companion paper, we presented some results for clustering with the Event - Target combination. In this paper, we present the remaining analysis for this combination, along with the complete analysis of the Event-Method combination.
