When police officers in Minority Report predicted who would commit crimes, and stopped them before they happened, it was considered so futuristic the film was set in 2054. 电影《少数派报告》中的警察能预测谁会犯罪，并在他们实施犯罪之前阻止他们。这样的场景因太过虚幻，所以被设置在2054年。 But, police in Berlin are considering adopting a similar software that predicts crimes and is named ‘Precobs’ - in a nod to the sci-fi film. 然而德国柏林警方最近在考虑采用与之相似的软件以预测犯罪行为，并将其命名为“Precobs”——以此向该科幻电影致敬。 Other forces, including police officers in two American states and London’s Metropolitan Police are also trialling predictive systems to catch would-be criminals. 美国两个州和英国伦敦警察署等一些国家警力也在试验预测系统，用以协助找到潜在犯罪人员。 Developed by a German firm, the software program predicts when and where a crime is most likely to occur, based on different sets of data. 这项软件项目由德国一家公司研发，基于对多组数据的研究以预测犯罪最有可能发生的时间地点。 It is being tested by police in the southern state of Bavaria. 德国巴戈利亚州（Bavaria）南部的警署正试用该软件。 ‘The Berlin police is first waiting for the results of the trial run in Bavaria’ before deciding on on whether to acquire Precobs, a spokesman said. |
