Semantic Similarity Models for Depression Severity Estimation (2023.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Public health systems have limited capacity for case detection and diagnosis due to the widespread use of social media. |
| Approach: | They propose to use social media content to generate semantic rankings for depressive symptoms and severity levels and use them to predict symptoms severity. |
| Outcome: | The proposed pipeline improves on two Reddit-based benchmarks and shows that it is more efficient than state-of-the-art in terms of measuring depression level. |
Predicting Client Emotions and Therapist Interventions in Psychotherapy Dialogues (2024.eacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent studies have focused on the role of client emotions and therapist interventions in predicting treatment outcomes from psychotherapy dialogues. |
| Approach: | They propose to model the therapist-intervention-prediction-based dialogue acts at the utterance-level using a pan-theoretical schema and fine-tuned language models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model predicts the coherence between client self-reports on emotion and utterance-level emotions. |
