Criminal Geographical Profiling: Using FCA for Visualization and Analysis of Crime Data

الأصل · EN

Fighting criminal activities in our modern societies required the engagement of intelligent information systems that can analyze crime data geographically and enable new concepts to be deduced from it. These information systems should be able to create visualization of such data as well as have the capability of giving new incite of information, if data is updated whilst maintaining the previously predicted patterns. This paper proposed the use of Formal Concept Analysis, or Galois Lattices, a data analysis technique grounded on Lattice Theory and Propositional Calculus, for the visualization and analysis of crime data. This method considered the set of common and distinct attributes of crimes in such a way that categorization are done based on related crime types, geographical locations and the persons involved.
