Detecting malicious activity in advance has become increasingly important for public safety, economic stability, and national security. However, the disparity in living standards incites the minds of certain undesirable members of society to commit crimes, which may disrupt society’s stability and mental calm. Breakthroughs in deep learning (DL) make it feasible to address such challenges and construct a complete intelligent framework that automatically detects such malicious behaviors. Motivated by this, we propose a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based Xception model, i.e., BlockCrime, to detect crimes and improve public safety. Furthermore, we integrate blockchain technology to securely store the detected crime scene locations and alert the nearest law enforcement authorities. Due to the scarcity of the dataset, transfer learning has been preferred, in which a CNN-based Xception model is used. The redesigned Xception architecture is evaluated against various assessment measures, including accuracy, F1 score, precision, and recall, where it outperforms existing CNN architectures in terms of train accuracy, i.e., 96.57%. |
