Discrete choice analysis of spatial attack sites

This paper presents an algorithm for the complete specification of multinomial discrete choice models to predict the spatial preferences of attackers. The formulation employed is a modification of models previously applied in transportation flow and crime analysis. A breaking and entering crime data set is employed to compare the efficacy of this model with traditional hot spot models. Discrete choice models are shown to perform as well as, or better than such models and offer more interpretable results.
