Martin Desruisseaux updated SIS-324:
------------------------------------
    Priority: Minor  (was: Major)

> Develop Hidden Markov Model to predict criminal moments  
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SIS-324
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-324
>             Project: Spatial Information Systems
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: Suresh Marru
>            Priority: Minor
>
> The proposed project extends https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-97.
> The Agent based modelling project during GSoC 2013 used a probabilistic model 
> that was hardcoded. It served as the basis to predict criminal’s movements 
> which infer crimes. This proposed project should do the inverse. Predict the 
> probabilistic model that controls the criminals’ behavior using data about 
> his movements and crimes.
> The project should be preliminary work for data mining. From a sample 
> anonymised emergency call (911 data) a criminal should be uniquely 
> identified. Hidden Markov Model, a probabilistic state transition system, 
> i.e., we define states such as “at home”, “in office etc”, “roaming mode” 
> etc, and there are probabilistic transitions between them. We can associate 
> some behavior to a particular state. Thus, the probabilistic model that was 
> hardcoded by Nadeem (in GSOC 2013) was a Markov model (this is a little 
> indirectly). When we only have the crime data and we want to find the model 
> that dictates the criminal’s behavior, the Markov model is hidden to us.  
> There are algorithms that can do this. These algorithms need to have their 
> parameters set by humans – such as the number of states. So this would need 
> some amount of experimentation.
