The concept of criminal typology classifies organisms where they group those criminal transgressions together which have similar or identical qualities.
The four most basic elements of criminal typology are:

1) Criminal behavior

2) Attributes of the Offender

3) Characteristics of the Victim

4) Context of the situation
