Data Mining and Predictive Analysis by Colleen Mccue Phd Experimental Psychology

Describes the possibilities for data mining to assist law enforcement professionals, and provides real-world examples showing how data mining has identified crime trends, anticipated community hot-spots, and refined resource deployment decisions. This book contains practical information used in real-life law enforcement situations.

"[Data Mining and Predictive Analysis] is a must-read.., blending analytical horsepower with real-life operational examples. Operators owe it to themselves to dig in and make tactical decisions more efficiently, and learn the language that sells good tactics to leadership. Analysts, intell support, and leaders owe it to themselves to learn a new way to attack the problem in support of law enforcement, security, and intelligence operations. Not just a dilettante academic, Dr. McCue is passionate about getting the best tactical solution in the most efficient way—and she uses data mining to do it. Understandable yet detailed, [Data Mining and Predictive Analysis] puts forth a solid argument for integrating predictive analytics into action. Not just for analysts!" --Tim King (Director, Special Programs and Global Business Development, ArmorGroup International Training)
