We present a novel Graph-based debiasing Algorithm for Underreported Data (GRAUD) aiming at an efficient joint estimation of event counts and discovery probabilities across spatial or graphical structures. This innovative method provides a solution to problems seen in fields such as policing data and COVID-19 data analysis. Our approach avoids the need for strong priors typically associated with Bayesian frameworks. By leveraging the graph structures on unknown variables n and p, our method debiases the under-report data and estimates the discovery probability at the same time. We validate the effectiveness of our method through simulation experiments and illustrate its practicality in one real-world application: police 911 calls-to-service data.
