Early Risk Detection of Pathological Gambling, Self-Harm and Depression Using BERT

30 Jun 2021 · Ana-Maria Bucur, Adrian Cosma, Liviu P. Dinu ·

Early risk detection of mental illnesses has a massive positive impact upon the well-being of people. The eRisk workshop has been at the forefront of enabling interdisciplinary research in developing computational methods to automatically estimate early risk factors for mental issues such as depression, self-harm, anorexia and pathological gambling. In this paper, we present the contributions of the BLUE team in the 2021 edition of the workshop, in which we tackle the problems of early detection of gambling addiction, self-harm and estimating depression severity from social media posts. We employ pre-trained BERT transformers and data crawled automatically from mental health subreddits and obtain reasonable results on all three tasks.
