Modeling 911 emergency events in cuenca-ecuador using geo-spatial data

Abstract:

We present several techniques for modeling emergency events using data from 911 emergency calls in the city of Cuenca-Ecuador. We apply three types of models. First, we use a probabilistic description of events using Gaussian kernels based on both, regular segmentation and mixture models, to represent the spatial distribution of occurrences. Second, we verify the qualitative relation of the clusters obtained with our kernel model with respect to the geo-political organization of the city. Finally, we develop an emergency model using a large dataset corresponding to the period January 1st 2015 through December 31st 2016 and test various data mining algorithms for pbkp_rediction purposes. We verify the usefulness of our approach experimentally.
