Researchers have developed Dep-LLM, a novel framework for diagnosing depression from clinical interviews without requiring any additional training. This system leverages existing large language models (LLMs) by mimicking the structured reasoning process of psychiatrists. Dep-LLM analyzes lengthy dialogues, identifies key depression indicators, quantifies the reliability of its findings, and integrates these signals for a final diagnosis, outperforming both supervised and commercial LLMs on benchmark datasets.
