Spatio-Temporal Modeling: Point process prediction for mortals
Silver Medal Winner for STEAM $2500 Prize! 🎉 🎉 🎊
Burglaries, earthquakes, and tweets all have a particular characteristic in common. The occurrence of one event increases the probability of subsequent events. Earthquakes can produce aftershocks,tweets can produce subsequent re-tweets, and burglaries follow the same behavior.
Self Exciting Point Processes(SEPP) models are built with this behavior in mind and they have been tested to be 1.5 - 2.2 times more accurate than previous approaches. This is an open source implementation of SEPP technology for police departments.
