Crime data is from 2015 #7

The crime data contained in this project is very old (2015) - are there any plans to update to more recent crimes?

Thank you @jordanrule -- Yes, although the data is the 2008 open data in Chicago.

This repo supports a paper presented at KDD 2013, also held in Chicago. At the time, there were emerging proposals and practices for ML model governance, and we were part of a workshop to explore those and related use cases. This area has since evolved quite a lot! :)

We didn't plan to maintain the code as a separate project. Meanwhile, the open source Cascading framework deprecated this usage of the pattern library.

If the modeling is of interest, there are other ways available now. For example, it might be more contemporary to use Dask instead?
