AI researcher here. Please do not read this headline and think, 'Ooh, I could create AI software to find potential mass shooters!' First, watch Minority Report and realize all the problems with 'pre-crime'. Second, current AI technology often does not do well with social behavior prediction, sometimes even performing worse than linear regression. Also, 100 different features is a small set, which is problematic in itself.
Now, an idea for AI application might be to analyze the environments the mass shootings occurred in to help create environments that minimize the casualty potential while retaining as mush aesthetics as possible. I could see a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) setup applying here, it's an interesting idea. Sadly, I do not have the bandwidth to tackle it.
