  • Robbery & Theft Prediction Using Probabilistic Graphical Model
    Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Dubai, UAE, March 10-12, 2020 Event of Crime against Property: Robbery & Theft Prediction using Probabilistic Graphical Model Rex Aurelius C. Robielos School of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management Mapua University Intramuros, Manila, Philippines [email protected] Nico Duran School of Information Technology Mapua University Intramuros, Manila, Philippines [email protected] Abstract This study analyzed the occurrence of robbery and theft in the City of Manila using discrete Bayesian network model. Using a 5-year data of robbery and theft in the City of Manila (with conviction), the results showed that February and July emerged as the months with highest probability of crime happening at 10.66 percent and lowest on April with 6.80 percent. In terms of crime happening on a week, the highest probability occurred on the 2nd week with 28.3 percent and lowest on the 5th week at 6.8 percent. Most of the crimes happened between 3PM to 6PM with 17 percent and lowest occurrence between 6AM to 9AM at 7.0 percent. Male population are more likely to be a victim of crime in almost all of the identified locations except for Pandacan where female population has a higher probability at 53 percent. With these information, a patrol priority location table was developed to show the location where the crime is more likely to happen in a particular time range of the day. This information can help the Philippine National Police in the police resource deployment. Keywords Crime against property, robbery and theft prediction, probabilistic graphical model 1.

  • Project Implementation Plan
    CHAPTER 5 PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION PLAN The Supplementary Survey on North South Commuter Rail Project (Phase II-A) in the Republic of the Philippines FINAL REPORT CHAPTER 5 PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION PLANNING 5.1 Examination of Preliminary Construction Plan The construction of NSCR will require careful planning and organization, given the magnitude of the works, time constraints and the location of the works on busy national and arterial roads within Metropolitan Manila and Bulacan Province. 5.1.1 Temporary Works 1) Temporary Access to Site It is necessary to apply countermeasures flooding during heavy rain season because of the low ground level between Malolos and Caloocan. There is no problem with an access road to the site along the main road in this area. However, it is necessary to consider to construct temporary access to site far from main roads. In swampy areas between Malolos and San Fernando along the PNR Route, it is necessary to construct a temporary steel stage for machinery or materials transportation during construction. It is necessary to install sheet piles to avoid an intrusion of ground water during construction of the substructure. 2) Sufficient Space for the Works There are some narrow ROW sections between Malolos and Caloocan along the PNR Route. During construction of elevated structures, it is necessary to have more than 15m width for access road to secure access of many trucks, truck mixers and other construction equipment transportation to the site. After construction, the temporary access shall be maintained more than 15m width as a service road for maintenance or emergency evacuation.

  • Intramuros During the American Colonization
    Intramuros during the American Colonization Irene G. BORRAS1 University of Santo Tomas MANILA ABSTRACT Intramuros, located in the capital city of the Philppines, became a symbolic siting that represents one’s social status and importance in society during the Spanish colonization. Also known as the “Walled City,” Intramuros is home to the oldest churches, schools, and government offices in the Philippines. When the Americans decided to colonized the Philippines, they did not have to conquer all the islands of the archipelago. They just have to secure Intramuros and the entire country fell to another colonizer. The goal of this paper is to identify the effects of creating a “center” or a city––from the way it is planned and structured––on one’s way of thinking and later on the attitude of the people towards the city. Specifically, the paper will focus on the important and symbolic structures near and inside the “walled city” and its effects on the mindset of the people towards the institutions that they represent. The paper will focus on the transition of Intramuros from a prestigious and prominent place during the Spanish colonization to an ordinary and decaying “Walled City” during the American period. Significantly, the paper will discuss the development of “Extramuros” or those settlements outside the walled city. It will give focus on the planning of Manila by Daniel Burnham during the American period which was basically focused on the development of the suburbs outside Intramuros. The paper will also discuss the important establishments built outside the Walled City during the American period.

PDEA Director General Undersecretary Arturo G. Cacdac Jr., said the illegal drug was seized from suspect identified as Maribeth Hizon, 31 years old, a resident of Zamora Street, Pandacan, Manila. On September 19, 2015, at around 3:30 pm, joint operatives of PDEA Regional Office 4A (PDEA RO4A) under Director Yogi Filemon Ruiz and PDEA Regional Office 11 (PDEA RO11) under Director Adzhar Albani arrested Hizon near a pharmacy along Taft Avenue, Pedro Gil, Barangay 690, Malate, Manila after she sold the illegal drug weighing approximately one kilogram, with an estimated street value of P1.2 million to an undercover PDEA agent who acted as buyer. However, the subject of the buy-bust operation identified as Xu Jinshi, a 34-year-old Chinese national and Hizon’s live-in partner, who made the deal with the poseur-buyer, did not appear in the agreed meeting place but instead sent Hizon to hand over the illegal drug during the transaction.

Biographical studies of politically active women in South- inSoutheastAsianNationalistMovements Women in Southeast Asian east Asia are also rare. Women in Southeast Asian Nationalist Movements makes a strong case for the signifi cance of women’s involvement in nationalist movements and for the diverse impacts of those movements on the lives of individual women Nationalist Movements activists. Susan Blackburn & Helen Ting, editors Some of the 12 women whose political activities are discussed in this volume are well known, while others are not. Some of them participated in armed struggles, while others pursued peaceful ways of achieving national independence. The authors show women negotiating their own subjectivity and agency at the confl uence of colonialism, patriarchal traditions, and modern ideals of national and personal emancipation. They also illustrate the constraints imposed on them by wider social and political structures, and show what it was like to live as a political activist in different times and places. Fully documented and drawing on wider scholarship, this book will be of interest to students of Southeast Asian history and politics as well as readers with a particular interest in women, nationalism and political activism.
