Preventing Suicide | When I detect suicide

The artificial intelligence helps the interventions in the prevention of suicide in a way that is appealing, and is a new life in Montreal. The algorithm discovers the staff that appeals, it worries or changes and the changes in their emotions.




“Our artificial intelligence (IA) technique is an intermediary with actors,” says Alaa Nfissi, specialist in IA at Concordia University, who is presenting the results of a conference in California. “By the way, an EU performance of 74% of the identification of the emotions of a person who is called to a helpline for suicidal people.”

The information provided by the algorithm makes it possible to help interventions identify the emotions of that generation. “If you are in a crisis, you don’t have to remind for more than 10 minutes, the staff is calm and calm or even scared,” says Brian Mishara, a psychologist at the University of Quebec in Montreal (UQAM) who has been a fan of Suicide Action Montréal for 20 years and that is the fashion style. “These are the changes that are gradual.”

If a suicide is very frightening or worrying, the intervention can be a privilege in a calm tone, «dire the choices are made to encourage the time, or the essayer who has more sense of care ».

But it is best to intervene with empathetic feelings.

Empathy, the means of identification of emotions, can make it clear that the person is resisting them. It is difficult to make a comment that is not necessary in a context of these issues. Il faut detecter de emotions by the mots, by a ton of the voice.

Is it the intention that the intermediaries consult an algorithm? « About the negative comments, said Mr. Nfissi. During an initial period, a training tool is used to explore the emotions, which will last throughout the interactions with the attractive generations. »

The intermediaries generally come forward as the help of M. Mishara. « The studies on the mountain are not only nice but also negative in the evaluation of our work in the lines of ecology that are the generations that are attractive. Appellants appreciate the well-being plus the work of the intermediaries that the interventions eux-mêmes », sad-t-il.

Is it true that an appellant can get “your cross that you have much more” on your cholere? “If the case occurs, it can have a positive effect on M. Mishara. Programs that lead children to the emotions of the parents, for example, can have a positive effect on the parents when it is terrible for a child: ‘maman, it is a fact that you have made a choice’. “

Have you discovered the risk of suicide in text messages or in social situations? « If you are looking for a wise choice, and it may be that the coordinators are convinced that the people in life can determine the level of suicide risk, says M. Mishara. But if a human being asks the question, someone who risks a person can risk his intentions. »

The IA algorithm was introduced with English données. Once the successes have become relatively higher after 12 hours of registration, it is easy to use a version in French, by M. Nfissi.
