Mayank Kejriwal uses AI to fight one of society's biggest challenges: human trafficking. As a Principal Scientist at ISI and a Research Assistant Professor, Kejriwal’s groundbreaking work on the DIG (Domain-Specific Insight Graphs) system has transformed the landscape of law enforcement investigations. DIG, part of the DARPA-funded Memex program, employs sophisticated machine learning to navigate the vast expanse of online ads, uncovering hidden patterns that connect traffickers with their victims. This powerful tool has been instrumental in initiating hundreds of investigations and securing numerous felony convictions.

Kejriwal's passion for leveraging technology for social good goes beyond the lab. He collaborates with experts across various fields to set a precedent for how advanced technology can be used to solve some of the world's most pressing issues.
