Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Crime is a complex phenomenon and environmental criminology provides a powerful conceptual framework for analyzing the criminal event.Environmental criminologists begin their study of crime by asking when and where crimes occur.Burglary is a serious crime with negative psychological, emotional, and fmancial costs to the community.Temporal data are collected by criminal justice agencies and provide fairly reliable data sets.Most temporal data collected for burglary are not based on the exact time of event occurrence; instead, the victim gives the investigator an earliest and latest potential time of occurrence.This leaves a time range or window in which the crime could have occurred.Since a large amount of police incident data on burglary is range data, discarding it would ignore the majority of incidents recorded.However, decisions on how to incorporate time ranges can yield very different perceptions of the burglary event.Recent work on this subject has produced a relatively new technique called aoristic analysis, which estimates the probability of a criminal offense occurring within a certain time span.After a discussion of aoristic analysis and other conventional approaches to the range issue, it is argued the technique is a step forward from other previous temporal analysis techniques, but has inherent limitations that prevent it from being a final solution to the time "range," "window" problem.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
