| abstract |
The present invention discloses a general overall system 30 and a general overall method 10 for tracking, monitoring, and learning prisoner or parolee behavior. The system 30 and method 10 involve obtaining prisoner or parolee data and monitoring data for at least one individual prisoner or parolee 38, storing the prisoner or parolee data and monitoring data into a database, learning prisoner or parolee behavior from the prisoner or parolee data and the monitoring data in the database, and updating the prisoner or parolee data and the monitoring data in the database. The present invention involves learning both individual and aggregate prisoner or parolee behavior from the prisoner or parolee data and the monitoring data in the database. The present invention executes expert system (i.e. including but not limited to fuzzy logic, reinforcement learning, neural networks, artificial intelligence, etc.) algorithms for determining and analyzing deviated behavior by the prisoner or parolee 38. The present invention system 30 and method 10 is able to assign a parole level to the prisoner or parolee 38 and determine whether the prisoner or parolee 38 is to be moved up or down a parole level depending on whether the prisoner or parolee behavior does not constitute or does constitute prisoner or parolee violations. Furthermore, the present invention tracks, monitors, and learns the behavior of the prisoner or parolee 38 by controlling and regulating the permitted/prohibited locations or sectors, the permitted/prohibited location or sector dwell times, the permitted/prohibited travel routes, the permitted/prohibited travel times that the prisoner or parolee 38 spend at or between various locations. |
