Reddit Post

Reddit posts are increasingly used as a rich source of data for analyzing various aspects of human behavior and mental health, with research focusing on automatically identifying individuals experiencing depression, opioid addiction, or suicidal ideation. This involves applying machine learning techniques, particularly deep learning models like BERT, GPT, and recurrent neural networks, to classify sentiment, extract key information, and predict user behaviors based on textual content. These analyses offer valuable insights for public health surveillance, enabling early intervention strategies and improving the efficiency of mental health services. The development of large, annotated datasets specifically designed for these tasks is crucial for advancing this field.
