• Abstract summary: This paper describes a novel methodology that identifies suicidality in clinical notes by addressing this data sparsity issue through zero-shot learning. A deep neural network was trained by mapping the training documents contents to a semantic space. In applying a 0.90 probability threshold, the methodology identified notes not associated with a relevant ICD 10 CM code that documented suicidality, with 94 percent accuracy.

• Abstract: Identifying suicidality including suicidal ideation, attempts, and risk factors in electronic health record data in clinical notes is difficult. A major difficulty is the lack of training samples given the small number of true positive instances among the increasingly large number of patients being screened. This paper describes a novel methodology that identifies suicidality in clinical notes by addressing this data sparsity issue through zero-shot learning. U.S. Veterans Affairs clinical notes served as data. The training dataset label was determined using diagnostic codes of suicide attempt and self-harm. A base string associated with the target label of suicidality was used to provide auxiliary information by narrowing the positive training cases to those containing the base string. A deep neural network was trained by mapping the training documents contents to a semantic space. For comparison, we trained another deep neural network using the identical training dataset labels and bag-of-words features. The zero shot learning model outperformed the baseline model in terms of AUC, sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value at multiple probability thresholds. In applying a 0.90 probability threshold, the methodology identified notes not associated with a relevant ICD 10 CM code that documented suicidality, with 94 percent accuracy. This new method can effectively identify suicidality without requiring manual annotation.

  Pre-trained language models offer promise for identifying suicidality from unstructured clinical narratives. We evaluated the performance of four BERT-based models using two fine-tuning strategies. The findings highlight that the model optimization, pretraining with domain-relevant data, and the single multi-label classification strategy enhance the model performance of suicide phenotyping.

  This study presents a Chinese social media dataset designed for fine-grained suicide risk classification. Seven pre-trained models were evaluated in two tasks: high and low suicide risk, and fine-grained suicide risk classification on a level of 0 to 10. Deep learning models show good performance in distinguishing between high and low suicide risk, with the best model achieving an F1 score of 88.39%.

  We propose a novel Explainable Active Learning framework (XAL) for low-resource text classification. XAL encourages classifiers to justify their inferences and delve into unlabeled data for which they cannot provide reasonable explanations. Experiments on six datasets show that XAL achieves consistent improvement over 9 strong baselines.
