The Toronto Police Service (TPS) is undergoing continuous improvement efforts to enhance confidence and strengthen ties with our society by providing access to open data for public safety in Toronto.
The Service would like students to research and develop correlation models for the one of the MCI data sets (Homicide, Robbery, Assault, Theft Over, Auto Theft, Break & Enter) available on the Toronto Police Service’s Public Safety Data Portal (PSDP) and Twitter Streaming API, in order to :
1) Investigate potential relationships between that MCI and historical tweets and trending hashtags
2) Derive insights and patterns
3) Build predictive analytics models
4) Deliver a final presentation and/or report of findings and recommendations
