As an important branch of criminology, crime prediction has greater research and application value. Crime prediction in China started late, and in the course of its development in recent years, it has been characterized as "marginal", with a relatively mature crime prediction system not yet formed, and certain dilemmas exist in its specific application. First of all, it is necessary to specifically analyze the inherent limitations of crime prediction at the technical and value levels, to point out the direction for the further improvement and development of the crime prediction mechanism, and at the same time, to make clear the necessity of establishing a crime prediction mechanism, to provide the necessary realistic impetus for our country's crime prediction to get out of the current predicament, and to put forward the contingent attitude towards crime prediction at the macro level.
