Today in class we discussed point pattern and point process and how they can be used to find randomness in our data. I also got a chance to go over my questions in class and Gary suggested that I narrow down the scope from states to counties as they are easier to digest. I also went over my questions with Lavanya and we created this list of questions to narrow down later for our assignment:
- Which demonstrations took place in response to gun violence and where did they occur?
- Why did some counties have protests related to labor laws over others?
- Which organizations are involved most in violent demonstrations?
- which counties have the highest number of incidents?
- are there any hotspots of violent activity?
The bolded questions peaked our interest the most.
