DepITCM: an audio-visual method for detecting depression by Lishan Zhang, Lishan Zhang, Zhenhua Liu, Yumei Wan, Yunli Fan, Diancai Chen, Qingxiang Wang, Kaihong Zhang, Yunshao Zheng

“…The resolution of these issues is crucial for constructing models of depression detection.MethodsIn this paper, we propose a multi-task representation learning based on vision and audio for depression detection model (DepITCM).The model comprises three main modules: a data preprocessing module, the Inception-Temporal-Channel Principal Component Analysis Module(ITCM Encoder), and a multi-task learning module. To efficiently extract rich feature representations from audio and video data, the ITCM Encoder employs a staged feature extraction strategy, transitioning from global to local features. …”
