A Survey on Data Mining Techniques for Predicting Crime Patterns & Suspect Prediction

In recent age the data mining is data analyzing techniques helps to analyze crime data that are previously stored from various sources to �nd patterns and trends in crimes and can easily find the suspects. In additional, the accuracy and time of tracing are robust while data mining technique is indulged. However, there are many data mining techniques. In order to increase ef�ciency of crime detection and for predicting the suspects, it is necessary to select the data mining techniques suitably. This paper reviews the literatures on various data mining applications, especially applications that applied to solve the crimes and predict the suspects. Survey also throws light on research gaps and challenges of crime data mining. In additional to that, this paper provides insight about the data mining for �nding the crime patterns and suspects who had made the crimes that are used appropriately and to be a help for beginners in the research of crime data mining.
