用非参数霍克斯过程评估大规模枪击事件的传染性
Assessing the contagiousness of mass shootings with nonparametric Hawkes processes
摘要：
枪支暴力和大规模枪击事件是美国面临的备受瞩目的流行病学问题，有关其传染性的问题在新闻媒体上越来越普遍。通过使用非参数霍克斯过程，我们研究了大规模枪击事件目录中存在传染性的证据，并强调了使用这种非参数点过程模型对此类事件的发生进行建模的更广泛的好处。
英文摘要：
Gun violence and mass shootings are high-profile epidemiological issues facing the United States with questions regarding their contagiousness gaining prevalence in news media. Through the use of nonparametric Hawkes processes, we examine the evidence for the existence of contagiousness within a catalog of mass shootings and highlight the broader benefits of using such nonparametric point process models in modeling the occurrence of such events.
