Description

Suicide prevention is a critical public health issue that requires a multifaceted approach, integrating data from various sources to identify at-risk individuals and provide timely interventions. DLH presents a comprehensive data model designed to enhance suicide prevention efforts through advanced data analytics and machine learning techniques. The DLH Atlas model incorporates diverse data sets, including demographic and socioeconomic information, occupational and environmental experiences, medical and mental health records, social media activity, and historical behavioral patterns. By leveraging predictive analytics, the Atlas model aims to identify high-risk individuals and trigger early intervention protocols. Key components of the Atlas model include data ingestion, preprocessing, feature extraction, and predictive modeling. The proposed data model emphasizes privacy and ethical considerations, ensuring that sensitive information is handled with the utmost care. The Atlas model has the potential to identify group of risk and mitigating factors that are most strongly associated with suicide risk, thereby enabling healthcare providers and support systems to take proactive measures. This innovative approach holds promise for significantly reducing suicide rates and improving mental health outcomes on a global scale.
