Abstract

Due to the anonymity of online media and social networks, people tend to Express their feelings and suffering in online communities. To prevent suicides, it is necessary to detect messages about suicides and user perceptions of suicides in cyberspace using natural language processing methods. We focus on the social network Vkontakte and classify users’ messages with potential suicide and without suicidal risk using text processing and machine learning methods.
In this paper, we tell about suicidal and depressive ideation detection in Russian Language. For this purpose, we create a dataset that consists of 64,000 posts that collected from Russian language social network Vkontakte. The dataset was applied to eight machine learning algorithms.
