abstract = "In recent years, violence has considerably increased in the world.
In a certain state of Brazil, for example, the homicide rate grew
from 16 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants in 2000, to 48 homicides
per 100,000 inhabitants in 2014. Police departments worldwide use
various types of crime maps, which are generated with diverse
techniques, in order to analyze and fight crime. Those types of
maps enable decision makers to identify high-risk areas and to
allocate resources more effectively. Hotspot maps, in particular,
are crime maps often available in visual interactive systems for
crime analysis. In order for hotspot maps to be really useful,
they need to be very accurate - specially for resource allocation
tasks - and to be processed very fast for quick analysis of
different scenarios. In this paper, we propose MSKDE - Marching
Squares Kernel Density Estimation, a solution for generating fast
and accurate hotspot maps. We describe the technique and
demonstrate its superior qualities through a careful comparison
with the standard Kernel Density Estimation technique, which is
widely used for generating hotspot maps.",
