Most Question-answering (QA) systems rely on training data to reach their optimal performance. However, acquiring training data for supervised systems is both time-consuming and resource-intensive. To address this, in this paper, we propose TFCSG, an unsupervised similar question retrieval approach that leverages pre-trained language models and multi-task learning. Firstly, topic keywords in question sentences are extracted sequentially based on a latent topic-filtering algorithm to construct unsupervised training corpus data. Then, the multi-task learning method is used to build the question retrieval model. There are three tasks designed. The first is a short sentence contrastive learning task. The second is the question sentence and its corresponding topic sequence similarity judgment task. The third is using question sentences to generate their corresponding topic sequence task. The three tasks are used to train the language model in parallel. Finally, similar questions are obtained by calculating the cosine similarity between sentence vectors. The comparison experiment on public question datasets that TFCSG outperforms the comparative unsupervised baseline method. And there is no need for manual marking, which greatly saves human resources.
Advancing mental health diagnostics: AI-based method for depression detection in patient interviews
(2023)
In this paper, we present a novel artificial intelligence (AI) application for depression detection, using advanced transformer networks to analyse clinical interviews. By incorporating simulated data to enhance traditional datasets, we overcome limitations in data protection and privacy, consequently improving the model’s performance. Our methodology employs BERT-based models, GPT-3.5, and ChatGPT-4, demonstrating state-of-the-art results in detecting depression from linguistic patterns and contextual information that significantly outperform previous approaches. Utilising the DAIC-WOZ and Extended-DAIC datasets, our study showcases the potential of the proposed application in revolutionising mental health care through early depression detection and intervention. Empirical results from various experiments highlight the efficacy of our approach and its suitability for real-world implementation. Furthermore, we acknowledge the ethical, legal, and social implications of AI in mental health diagnostics. Ultimately, our study underscores the transformative potential of AI in mental health diagnostics, paving the way for innovative solutions that can facilitate early intervention and improve patient outcomes.
