TITLE Crime Prediction using Machine Learning and Deep Learning
ABSTRACT Crime has become a major concern for governments and law enforcement agencies worldwide. The increasing availability of crime-related data and advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have enabled the development of predictive systems capable of forecasting criminal activities. Crime prediction aims to identify potential crime hotspots, estimate crime occurrence probabilities, and support proactive policing strategies. This research presents a comprehensive study of crime prediction using Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) techniques. Various algorithms including Logistic Regression, Decision Trees, Random Forest, Support Vector Machines (SVM), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks are analyzed for crime forecasting. Historical crime datasets are preprocessed and transformed into meaningful features for model training. Experimental results demonstrate that deep learning models outperform conventional machine learning approaches in capturing complex temporal and spatial crime patterns. The proposed framework assists law enforcement agencies in resource allocation, crime prevention, and decision-making. The study concludes that integrating ML and DL techniques can significantly improve prediction accuracy and contribute to safer and smarter cities.
