Identifying Distorted Thinking in Patient-Therapist Text Message Exchanges by Leveraging Dynamic Multi-Turn Context

no code implementations NAACL (CLPsych) 2022 Kevin Lybarger, Justin Tauscher, Xiruo Ding, Dror Ben-Zeev, Trevor Cohen

In this work, we automatically identify distorted thinking in text-based patient-therapist exchanges, investigating the role of conversation history (context) in distortion prediction.

Extracting Social Determinants of Health from Pediatric Patient Notes Using Large Language Models: Novel Corpus and Methods

1 code implementation31 Mar 2024 Yujuan Fu, Giridhar Kaushik Ramachandran, Nicholas J Dobbins, Namu Park, Michael Leu, Abby R. Rosenberg, Kevin Lybarger, Fei Xia, Ozlem Uzuner, Meliha Yetisgen

In this work, we present a novel annotated corpus, the Pediatric Social History Annotation Corpus (PedSHAC), and evaluate the automatic extraction of detailed SDoH representations using fine-tuned and in-context learning methods with Large Language Models (LLMs).

Generalizing through Forgetting -- Domain Generalization for Symptom Event Extraction in Clinical Notes

no code implementations20 Sep 2022 Sitong Zhou, Kevin Lybarger, Meliha Yetisgen, Mari Ostendorf

To reduce reliance on domain-specific features, we propose a domain generalization method that dynamically masks frequent symptoms words in the source domain.
