FC-NT: a crime prediction algorithm incorporating formal context and neural networks

Abstract

The task of crime prediction is to predict the charges of a case based on the given description of the case, which has become a research hot spot. Most of the existing methods use neural networks and machine learning algorithms to predict. The prediction results have high accuracy, but the prediction results are often not well interpretable. In addition, some early traditional methods can explain the prediction results, but their accuracy is often very low. Formal concept analysis is an effective data extraction tool. Therefore, this paper combines formal concept analysis with neural network to improve the accuracy of the algorithm. The experimental results show that our method has higher prediction results and can better explain the prediction results than the original neural network model.
