CUNY team uses LLMs for mental health change analysis

Researchers from CUNY have developed a pipeline approach for analyzing mental health changes using social media data for the CLPsych 2026 Shared Task. Their system combines in-context learning from multiple open-weight large language models for classifying self-states and predicting timeline changes. The pipeline also includes a summarization component that leverages upstream predictions to describe mood dynamics over time, achieving top rankings in several task categories. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates a novel pipeline for analyzing mental health trends using LLMs, potentially improving early detection and intervention strategies.
