Can you predict schizophrenia by studying language?
An interview with psychology researcher Neguine Rezaii about her work using machine learning to predict conversion in teenagers from prodromal symptoms to psychotic episodes.

Topics discussed include: how exactly they determined “low meaning"; how the algorithm found, on its own, indicators related to sound-related speech content; the future of using machine learning and automatic diagnosis tools in psychology and therapy; theories that might help explain these findings.
