Explainability, Accuracy, and Generalizability in ADHD Detection from Social Media Data
The lab looks at how well computer programs can spot ADHD from people’s posts on Reddit and Twitter. They compare simple machine‑learning models with more complex deep‑learning models like BiLSTM and transformers, checking how clear the models are and how well they work on different platforms.
