Dr. Jeff Brantingham is a professor from the Department of Anthropology at UCLA and is the director of the UC Mathematical and Simulation Modeling of Crime Project.
He has become very famous because of his studies on human settlements and civilizations and the capacity that humans have to adapt and establish themselves in different places of the earth and use these places to their advacement. Given the level of crime in Los Angeles, and seeking to help improve the way police force and resources are distributed, as well as seeking to prevent crime from happening, he used mathematical algorithms that predict the time, place and occurrence of criminal activities so that resources can be better allocated and used. Currently he is working with the LAPD, the Los Angeles Police Department, to teach about his predictive policing experiment.
