Abstract: |
Embodiments herein include a natural language computing system that provides a diagnosis for a participant in the conversation which indicates the likelihood that the participant exhibited a symptom of autism. To provide the diagnosis, the computing system includes a diagnosis system that performs a training process to generate a machine learning model which is then used to evaluate a textual representation of the conversation. For example, the diagnosis system may receive one or more examples of baseline conversations that exhibit symptoms of autisms and those that do not. The diagnosis system may annotate and the baseline conversations and identify features that are used to identify the symptoms of autism. The system generates a machine learning model that weights the features according to whether the identified features are, or are not, an indicator of autism. |
