Abstract

Bipolar disorder (BD) is a serious mental disorder characterized by manic episodes of elevated mood and overactivity, interspersed with periods of depression. Typically, the psychiatric assessment of affective state is carried out by a psychiatrist during routine check-up visits. However, diagnostics of a phase change can be facilitated by monitoring data collected by the patient’s smartphone. Previous studies concentrated primarily on the phase detection formulated as a classification task. In this study, we introduce a new approach to predict the phase change of BD patients using acoustic features and a combination of the Kohonen’s self-organizing maps and random forests. The primary goal is to predict the forthcoming change of patient’s state. We report on preliminary results that confirm the existence of a relation between the outcome of unsupervised learning (clustering) and the psychiatric assessment. Next, we evaluate the out-of-sample accuracy to predict the patient’s state with random forests. Finally, we discuss the potential of unsupervised learning for monitoring BD patients.

This work was partially financed from EU funds (Regional Operational Program for Mazovia) - a project entitled “Smartphone-based diagnostics of phase changes in the course of bipolar disorder” (RPMA.01.02.00-14-5706/16-00).
