• Title: SupervisorBot: NLP-Annotated Real-Time Recommendations of Psychotherapy Treatment Strategies with Deep Reinforcement Learning
• Authors: Baihan Lin
• Abstract summary: We propose a recommendation system that suggests treatment strategies to a therapist during the psychotherapy session in real-time. Our system uses a turn-level rating mechanism that predicts the therapeutic outcome by computing a similarity score between the deep embedding of a scoring inventory, and the current sentence that the patient is speaking.

• Abstract: We propose a recommendation system that suggests treatment strategies to a therapist during the psychotherapy session in real-time. Our system uses a turn-level rating mechanism that predicts the therapeutic outcome by computing a similarity score between the deep embedding of a scoring inventory, and the current sentence that the patient is speaking. The system automatically transcribes a continuous audio stream and separates it into turns of the patient and of the therapist using an online registration-free diarization method. The dialogue pairs along with their computed ratings are then fed into a deep reinforcement learning recommender where the sessions are treated as users and the topics are treated as items. Other than evaluating the empirical advantages of the core components on existing datasets, we demonstrate the effectiveness of this system in a web app.

  We develop an interactive social robot exercise coaching system for personalized rehabilitation. This system integrates a neural network model with a rule-based model to automatically monitor and assess patients' rehabilitation exercises. Our system can adapt to new participants and achieved 0.81 average performance to assess their exercises, which is comparable to the experts' agreement level.

  We believe that the working alliance can be better characterized using natural language processing technique directly in the dialogue transcribed in each therapy session. We propose a Transformer-based classification model that has a psychological state encoder which infers the working alliance scores. We evaluate our method in a real-world dataset with over 950 therapy sessions with anxiety, depression, schizophrenia and suicidal patients.

  Strategy training is a rehabilitation approach that teaches skills to reduce disability among those with cognitive impairments following a stroke. Standardized fidelity assessment is used to measure adherence to treatment principles. We developed a rule-based NLP algorithm, a long-short term memory (LSTM) model, and a bidirectional encoder representation from transformers (BERT) model for this task.

We developed an intelligent decision support system that can identify salient features of assessment using reinforcement learning.
