BACKGROUND: Suicide attempt is one of the most severe consequences for patients with mood disorders. This study aimed to perform deep learning and machine learning while using text mining to identify patients with suicide attempts and to compare their effectiveness.
METHODS: A total of 13,100 patients with mood disorders were selected. Two traditional text mining methods, logistic regression and Support vector machine (SVM), and one deep learning model (Convolutional neural network, CNN) were adopted to perform overall analysis and gender-specific subgroup analysis of patients to identify suicide attempts. The classification effectiveness of these models was evaluated by accuracy, F1-value, precision, recall, and the area under Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC).
RESULTS: CNN's results were greater than the other two for all indicators except recall which was slightly smaller than SVM in male subgroup analysis. The accuracy values of the CNN were 98.4 %, 98.2 %, and 98.5 % in the overall analysis and the subgroup analysis for males and females, respectively. The results of McNemar's test showed that CNN and SVM models' predictions were statistically different from the logistic regression model's predictions in the overall analysis and the subgroup analysis for females (P < 0.050). LIMITATIONS: A fixed number of features were selected based on document frequency to train models; this was a single-site study.
CONCLUSIONS: CNN model was a better way to detect suicide attempts in patients with mood disorders prior to hospital admission, saving time and resources in recognizing high-risk patients and preventing suicide.
