Title: A shared component point process model for urban policing
Authors: Claire Kelling - Carleton College (United States) [presenting]
Abstract: Newly available point-level datasets allow for relating police use of force to other events describing police behavior. Current methods for relating two-point processes typically rely on the spatial aggregation of one of the two-point processes. New methods that build upon shared component models and case-control methods are investigated to retain the point-level nature of both point processes while characterizing the relationship between them. It is found that the shared component approach is particularly useful in flexibly relating two-point processes, and this flexibility is illustrated in simulated examples and an application to Chicago police data.
