Description & Coverage
Description:

The field of data mining is receiving significant attention in today's information-rich society, where data is available from different sources and formats, in large volumes, and no longer constitutes a bottleneck for knowledge acquisition. This rich information has paved the way for novel areas of research, particularly in the crime data analysis realm.

Data Mining Trends and Applications in Criminal Science and Investigations presents scientific concepts and frameworks of data mining and analytics implementation and uses across various domains, such as public safety, criminal investigations, intrusion detection, crime scene analysis, and suspect modeling. Exploring the diverse ways that data is revolutionizing the field of criminal science, this publication meets the research needs of law enforcement professionals, data analysts, investigators, researchers, and graduate-level students.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Crime Analysis
  • Crime Mapping
  • Crime Suspect Monitoring
  • Cyber Crime
  • Data Analytics
  • Forensic Investigations
  • Visual Data Mining
Reviews & Statements

Editors Isafiade and Bagula present readers with a collection of professional and research perspectives on contemporary data mining trends and their realized and potential applications in a variety of criminal science and investigative settings. The editors have organized the ten selections that make up the main body of the text into four parts devoted to challenges and existing strategies in public safety and crime mining; hotspot, spatial, and visual analytics; forensics, suspect modeling, and intelligence gathering; and denial of service, cyber-crime, and intrusion detection management.
