Crime Data Visualization for the Future

Wed, Nov 15, 11:00am to 12:20pm, Marriott, Franklin 4, 4th Floor

Abstract

Open data is a necessary but not sufficient condition for data to be transparent. Understanding how to reduce complicated information into informative displays is an important step for those wishing to understand crime and how the criminal justice system works. I focus the talk on using simple tables and graphs to present complicated information using various examples in criminal justice. Also I describe ways to effectively evaluate the size of effects in regression models, and make black box machine learning models more interpretable.
