• Title: Neural Topic Modeling of Psychotherapy Sessions
• Authors: Baihan Lin, Djallel Bouneffouf, Guillermo Cecchi, Ravi Tejwani
• Abstract summary: We compare different neural topic modeling methods in learning the topical propensities of different psychiatric conditions from the psychotherapy session transcripts parsed from speech recordings. We believe this topic modeling framework can offer interpretable insights for the therapist to optimally decide his or her strategy and improve the psychotherapy effectiveness.

• Abstract: In this work, we compare different neural topic modeling methods in learning the topical propensities of different psychiatric conditions from the psychotherapy session transcripts parsed from speech recordings. We also incorporate temporal modeling to put this additional interpretability to action by parsing out topic similarities as a time series in a turn-level resolution. We believe this topic modeling framework can offer interpretable insights for the therapist to optimally decide his or her strategy and improve the psychotherapy effectiveness.

  We propose a neuro-symbolic approach called neural DNF-MT for end-to-end policy learning. The differentiable nature of the neural DNF-MT model enables the use of deep actor-critic algorithms for training. We show how the bivalent representations of deterministic policies can be edited and incorporated back into a neural model.

  A BERT-based model is proposed for automatic behavioral scoring of a specific type of psychotherapy, called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) The model is trained in a multi-task manner in order to achieve higher interpretability. BERT-based representations are further augmented with available therapy metadata, providing relevant non-linguistic context and leading to consistent performance improvements.

Because a specific application domain of the proposed framework may only supply a limited amount of data, the framework is designed to work on a small training set.
