OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Predictive Enforcement
We study law enforcement guided by data-informed predictions of “hot spots” for likely criminal offenses. Such “predictive” enforcement could lead to data being selectively and disproportionately collected from neighbourhoods targeted for enforcement by the prediction. Predictive enforcement that fails to account for this endogenous “datafication” may lead to the over-policing of traditionally high-crime neighbourhoods and performs poorly, in particular, in some cases as poorly as if no data were used. Endogenizing the incentives for criminal offenses identifies additional deterrence benefits from the informationally efficient use of data.
