Object detectors have improved in recent years, obtaining better results and faster inference time. However, small object detection is still a problem that has not yet a definitive solution. The autonomous weapons detection on Closed-circuit televisi...
IMPORTANCE: Nonfatal gunshot injuries are the most common firearm injury, but where they frequently occur remains unclear owing to data limitations. Natural language processing can be applied to medical text narratives of gunshot injury records to cl...

PURPOSE: Demolishing abandoned buildings has been found to reduce nearby firearm violence. However, these effects might vary within cities and across time scales. We aimed to identify potential moderators of the effects of demolitions on firearm viol...
INTRODUCTION: Over 40,000 people die by suicide annually in the U.S., and firearms are the most lethal suicide method. There is limited evidence on the effectiveness of many state-level policies on reducing firearm suicide. The objective of this stud...

OBJECTIVE: Access to firearms is associated with increased suicide risk. Our aim was to develop a natural language processing approach to characterizing firearm access in clinical records.
Framing the public health burden of firearm violence should include people with secondary exposure to firearm violence beyond acute bodily injury, yet such data are limited. Electronic health record clinical notes, when leveraged through natural lang...
