Predictive Policing & Machine Learning - Part I

Machine Learning (ML) is a type of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that provides computers with the ability to learn and make predictions. Machine Learning can be applied across several disciplines in order to make predictions. One such disciple, Predictive Policing, uses Machine Learning to predict the likelihood of crime. This talk introduces S. A. M. (Suspicious Activity Monitor), a Predictive Policing, Machine Learning program, that predicts crime based on a given set of circumstances. The "secrets" and technologies to bringing a Machine Learning program, like S. A. M., to life are explained and demonstrated during this talk.
