Agent-based modelling as a research tool for criminological research
Computational modelling techniques, originating from fields like Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, may be beneficial for criminological research. Because of their formal nature, computational models can be processed by machines that operate on them, for example for the purpose of simulation. As a consequence, these techniques may help gain insights that lacked based of purely inform...
متن کاملGeotagged photos: a useful tool for criminological research?
If a photo is worth a thousand words, is a geotagged photo worth even more? Recent advances in Global Positioning System (GPS) and digital camera technology have enabled photographers to add an additional layer of context to their images. By linking photographs to the location where they were taken, geotagged photographs can be seen as source of qualitative and quantitative information. For exa...
متن کامل3d Canopy Modelling as a Tool in Remote-sensing Research
This chapter reviews the way in which 3D plant and canopy models have been used in the field of remote sensing. The focus of the chapter is on remote sensing of crops at microwave and optical wavelengths, although other applications are discussed. A brief review of remote sensing of crops is presented, followed by an evaluation of the motivation for using various types of 3D models with remotes...
متن کاملSoccer Server: a Tool for Research on Multi-agent Systems Soccer Server: a Tool for Research on Multi-agent Systems
This paper describes Soccer Server, a simulator of the game of soccer designed as a test-bench for evaluating multi-agent systems and cooperative algorithms. In real life, successful soccer teams require many qualities, such as basic ball control skills, the ability to carry out plans, and teamwork. We believe that simulating such behaviors is a signi cant challenge for Computer Science, Arti c...
متن کاملUsing virtual reality in criminological research
Since the pioneering early studies of the 1990s hinted at its promise as a research method, virtual reality (VR) technology has increasingly been used by social scientists. Given recent developments that have greatly enhanced realism, reduced costs, and increased possibilities for application, VR seems well on its way to become an established research tool in the social sciences. However, as wi...
