• Title: An End-to-End Set Transformer for User-Level Classification of Depression and Gambling Disorder
• Authors: Ana-Maria Bucur, Adrian Cosma, Liviu P. Dinu and Paolo Rosso
• Abstract summary: This work proposes a transformer architecture for user-level classification of gambling addiction and depression. We process a set of social media posts from a particular individual, to make use of the interactions between posts and eliminate label noise at the post level. Our architecture is interpretable with modern feature attribution methods and allows for automatic dataset creation.

• Abstract: This work proposes a transformer architecture for user-level classification of gambling addiction and depression that is trainable end-to-end. As opposed to other methods that operate at the post level, we process a set of social media posts from a particular individual, to make use of the interactions between posts and eliminate label noise at the post level. We exploit the fact that, by not injecting positional encodings, multi-head attention is permutation invariant and we process randomly sampled sets of texts from a user after being encoded with a modern pretrained sentence encoder (RoBERTa / MiniLM). Moreover, our architecture is interpretable with modern feature attribution methods and allows for automatic dataset creation by identifying discriminating posts in a user's text-set. We perform ablation studies on hyper-parameters and evaluate our method for the eRisk 2022 Lab on early detection of signs of pathological gambling and early risk detection of depression. The method proposed by our team BLUE obtained the best ERDE5 score of 0.015, and the second-best ERDE50 score of 0.009 for pathological gambling detection. For the early detection of depression, we obtained the second-best ERDE50 of 0.027.

  Propensity score matching (PSM) addresses selection biases by selecting comparable populations for analysis. Different matching methods can produce significantly different Average Treatment Effects (ATE) for the same task, even when meeting all validation criteria. To address this issue, we introduce a novel metric, A2A, to reduce the number of valid matches.

  Agitation is one of the most prevalent symptoms in people with dementia (PwD) In a previous study, we collected multimodal wearable sensor data from 17 participants for 600 days and developed machine learning models for detecting agitation in one-minute windows. In this paper, we first implemented different undersampling methods to eliminate the imbalance problem, and came to the conclusion that only 20% of normal behaviour data were adequate to train a competitive agitation detection model.
