Details

This system uses machine learning and probabilistic modelling to assign risk scores to packages entering Canada through the Courier Low Value Shipments stream. It is used by Canada Border Services Agency employees to assess which packages may warrant further examination. The system is currently in development and does not process personal information. Members of the public are not informed when this scoring is applied to their shipments.
