- Sign up for the RSS feed of the crime de-coder blog for consistent updates.
- Recent blog posts include topics on crime monitoring, gun shot detection tech, LLMs for data extraction, and finding outliers in proportions.
- ASEBP conference submissions for 2026 are open, with a talk on planning experiments.
- Use `importlib.reload` to reload Python modules for easier debugging without restarting the entire script.
- For long-running code, save objects with `pickle` to avoid re-running the entire process during debugging.
- A function `intersection_length` is provided to approximate the shared border length between two polygons using small buffers.
- The function is tested with various polygon configurations to ensure accuracy.
- The buffer method helps handle imperfections in real GIS data by smoothing out minor discrepancies.
