Multi-Task, Multi-Channel, Multi-Input Learning for Mental Illness Detection using Social Media Text (D19-62)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for mental illness detection have limited data available for training . lack of sufficient annotated data and inability to extract explanations on the derived outcome have restricted researchers to use traditional methods. |
| Approach: | They propose to use emotional patterns identified by clinical practitioners to enhance the prediction capabilities of a mental illness detection model built using a deep neural network architecture. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves a task-specific AUC higher than 0.90 . it compares multi-task learning with multi-channel convolutional neural network and multiple inputs to methods such as multi-class classification . |
