- Description
- Crime is the most common social problem faced in a developing country. Crime affects the reputation of a nation and the quality of life of its citizens. Crime also affects the economy of the country, increasing the financial burden of the government due to the need for expenditure in the police force and judicial system. Various initiatives are taken by law enforcement to reduce the crime rate. One such initiative, real-time accurate crime predictions can help reduce the occurrence of crime. In this paper, a crime analytics platform is developed, which processes newsfeed data analysis for different types of crimes and identify crime hotspots using Kernel Density Estimation method. This system enables criminologists to understand the hidden relationships between crime and geographical locations. Interactive visualization features are available that enable law enforcement agencies to predict crime. 2020 American Scientific Publishers.
