Theft Prediction with Individual Risk Factor of Visitors

Location-Based Social Networks (LBSN) provides unprecedented opportunities to tackle various social problems. In this study, we identify a number of crime-prediction-specific dynamic features which, for the first time, explore crime risk factors implicitly associated with the visitors. The reliable correlations between the proposed dynamic features and crime event occurrences have been observed. The evaluations on large real world data sets verify that the crime prediction performance can be notably improved with the inclusion of proposed crime-prediction-specific dynamic features.
