DeepMood: Modeling Mobile Phone Typing Dynamics for Mood Detection
The increasing use of electronic forms of communication presents new
opportunities in the study of mental health, including the ability to
investigate the manifestations of psychiatric diseases unobtrusively and in the
setting of patients' daily lives. A pilot study to explore the possible
connections between bipolar affective disorder and mobile phone usage was
conducted. In this study, participants were provided a mobile phone to use as
their primary phone. This phone was loaded with a custom keyboard that
collected metadata consisting of keypress entry time and accelerometer
movement. Individual character data with the exceptions of the backspace key
and space bar were not collected due to privacy concerns. We propose an
end-to-end deep architecture based on late fusion, named DeepMood, to model the
multi-view metadata for the prediction of mood scores. Experimental results
show that 90.31% prediction accuracy on the depression score can be achieved
based on session-level mobile phone typing dynamics which is typically less
than one minute. It demonstrates the feasibility of using mobile phone metadata
to infer mood disturbance and severity.Comment: KDD 201
Evaluating Two-Stream CNN for Video Classification
Videos contain very rich semantic information. Traditional hand-crafted
features are known to be inadequate in analyzing complex video semantics.
Inspired by the huge success of the deep learning methods in analyzing image,
audio and text data, significant efforts are recently being devoted to the
design of deep nets for video analytics. Among the many practical needs,
classifying videos (or video clips) based on their major semantic categories
(e.g., "skiing") is useful in many applications. In this paper, we conduct an
in-depth study to investigate important implementation options that may affect
the performance of deep nets on video classification. Our evaluations are
conducted on top of a recent two-stream convolutional neural network (CNN)
pipeline, which uses both static frames and motion optical flows, and has
demonstrated competitive performance against the state-of-the-art methods. In
order to gain insights and to arrive at a practical guideline, many important
options are studied, including network architectures, model fusion, learning
parameters and the final prediction methods. Based on the evaluations, very
competitive results are attained on two popular video classification
benchmarks. We hope that the discussions and conclusions from this work can
help researchers in related fields to quickly set up a good basis for further
investigations along this very promising direction.Comment: ACM ICMR'1
Volatility Prediction using Financial Disclosures Sentiments with Word Embedding-based IR Models
Volatility prediction--an essential concept in financial markets--has
recently been addressed using sentiment analysis methods. We investigate the
sentiment of annual disclosures of companies in stock markets to forecast
volatility. We specifically explore the use of recent Information Retrieval
(IR) term weighting models that are effectively extended by related terms using
word embeddings. In parallel to textual information, factual market data have
been widely used as the mainstream approach to forecast market risk. We
therefore study different fusion methods to combine text and market data
resources. Our word embedding-based approach significantly outperforms
state-of-the-art methods. In addition, we investigate the characteristics of
the reports of the companies in different financial sectors
