Abstract

[Suicide bombings have been one of Boko Haram’s go-to tools of terror after the group escalated its campaign of violence. During 2015 and 2016 only one month during each year did not see a suicide bombing. This chapter will examine the circumstances surrounding suicide bombings and the temporal probabilistic rules (TP-Rules) we were able to derive. These TP-Rules were derived from the circumstances and events that appear to be linked to Boko Haram’s use of suicide bombers. For example, we derived TP-Rules to predict the occurrence or absence of suicide bombings based on Boko Haram’s use of child soldiers.]
