Criminal incident prediction using a point-pattern-based density model

Article Abstract:

A multivariate prediction model for hot spots is described. This model relates the features in an area to the predicted occurrence of crimes through the preference structure of criminals. Also a point-pattern based transition density model is used for space-time event predictions.
