A random walk in the literature on criminality: a partial and critical view on some statistical analysis and modeling approaches
Résumé
We are interested in the possible contributions of mathematical modeling of crime. We refer to numerous and quite recent papers that analyze and discuss empirical data in an attempt to discover stylized trends worthy of being understood through simple models. We summarize part of this literature and try to understand the reasons of important discrepancies in their conclusions. Then we present some recent modeling attempts that may help to understand the large variance in the statistical based conclusions.
