Crime Analysis and Prediction

Prasun Chatterjee

Abstract


Crime is an act committed or omitted in violation of a law forbidding or commanding it and for which punishment is imposed upon conviction. Crime analysis is a function based on law enforcement that involves systematic analysis for analyze and identifying trend in crime. The information and patterns help law enforcement agencies to locate in a more effective manner and assist detectives in identifying and apprehending suspects. This paper proposes a solution for future crime prediction. Crime analysis includes looking at the data from two different dimensions—spatial and temporal. Spatial dimension involves observing the characteristics of a particular region along with its neighbors. Temporal dimension involves observing the characteristics of a particular region over time.


Keywords
