用智能体分解法自动评估抑郁焦虑,不依赖固定流程。
ADAPTS: Agentic Decomposition for Automated Protocol-agnostic Tracking of Symptoms
- 拆解长对话为症状专项推理任务,保持时间与说话人对齐。
- 在204例独立数据上,误差比人工还低,达22分。
- 适合资源有限地区做客观精神状态评估。
从非约束性临床对话中建模潜在心理状态是情感计算中的独特挑战。我们提出ADAPTS(Agentic Decomposition for Automated Protocol-agnostic Tracking of Symptoms),一种基于混合智能体大模型架构的自动抑郁与焦虑严重程度评分框架。该方法将长篇临床访谈分解为症状相关的推理任务,在保留时间序列和说话人对齐的前提下生成可审计的推理依据。在两个独立数据集(N=204)上评估泛化能力,高差异性访谈中,自动化评分与专家基准的绝对误差为22,优于原始人工评分的26。引入包含定性临床惯例的“扩展”协议后,评分稳定性显著提升,组内相关系数达到ICC(2,1)=0.877。结果表明,ADAPTS框架能实现具有前景的精神病严重程度评估。当前版本仅基于文本,但底层架构可轻松扩展至多模态输入(如声学、视觉特征)。以协议无关方式逼近专家精度,为资源受限场景下的客观、可扩展精神评估提供了基础。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Modeling latent clinical constructs from unconstrained clinical interactions is a unique challenge in affective computing. We present ADAPTS (Agentic Decomposition for Automated Protocol-agnostic Tracking of Symptoms), a framework for automated rating of depression and anxiety severity using a mixture-of-agents LLM architecture. This approach decomposes long-form clinical interviews into symptom-specific reasoning tasks, producing auditable justifications while preserving temporal and speaker alignment. Generalization was evaluated across two independent datasets ($N=204$) with distinct interview structures. On high-discrepancy interviews, automated ratings approximated expert benchmarks ($\text{absolute error}=22$) more closely than original human ratings ($\text{absolute error}=26$). Implementing an ``extended'' protocol that incorporates qualitative clinical conventions significantly stabilized ratings, with absolute agreement reaching $\text{ICC(2,1)} = 0.877$. These findings suggest that the ADAPTS framework enables promising evaluations of psychiatric severity. While the current implementation is purely text-based, the underlying architecture is readily extensible to multimodal inputs, including acoustic and visual features. By approximating expert-level precision in a protocol-agnostic manner, this framework provides a foundation for objective and scalable psychiatric assessment, especially in resource-limited settings.
