T
he crime phenomenon of modern society is more complex
and diverse than in the past. There are many ways to
predict and analyze crime phenomena. The current era of the
fourth industrial revolution is experiencing innovative changes
as cutting-edge information and communications technology
are incorporated into all areas of the economy and society;
for example, artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things,
big data, and mobile technology. Criminologists (crime-data
scientists) play a very important role in this process. They
create or assemble high-quality data that can be used to train
machine-learning systems, find machine-learning algorithms
that are suitable for the data, and perform modeling. The
discussions of politics, economy, and culture posted on social
media outlets represent the opinions of the era. The method
of collecting and analyzing the unstructured data from online
channels, including the Social Network Service, can interpret
the actual phenomenon in our society. The current study uses
structured and social big data to predict crime and preemptively
respond to it. The results of this study provides a detailed
description of the entire research process, which consisted
of gathering big data, analyzing it, and making observations
to develop a crime-prediction model that uses actual big data.
The study also contains an in-depth discussion of several
processes: text mining, which extracts useful information
from online documents; opinion mining, which analyzes the
emotions contained in documents; machine learning for crime
prediction and visualization analysis. Machine learning will be
applied to finally suggest a prediction model. The results of the
analysis and policy implication will be discussed.
