a. Predictive Policing:
- Concept: Predictive policing uses mathematical models to forecast where and when crimes are likely to occur.
- Mathematical Tools: Machine learning algorithms, statistical models, and data mining techniques analyze historical crime data to identify patterns and predict future incidents. These models can help allocate resources proactively to prevent crimes.
b. Risk Assessment:
- Concept: Assessing the risk of criminal activities and identifying high-risk individuals or areas.
- Mathematical Tools: Risk assessment models, including Bayesian networks and logistic regression, are used to evaluate and predict the likelihood of criminal behavior based on various factors.
