Using Data Science to Catch Criminals

The power of data science is not limited to solving technical or business issues. Its usage is not limited to data analytics to create new technologies, target ads to consumers, and maximize profits and sales in business. The concept of open science has led organizations to use data to handle social problems. It can offer a statistical and data-driven solution to hidden human behavior and cultural patterns. We will be using data from the San Francisco crime department to understand the relation between civilian-reported incidents of crime and police-reported incidents of crime. To store and readily access a large amount of data, we will be using GridDB as our database platform.
