eRisk Dataset

There are a total of 909 users. The information of each user is saved in a ".json" different file. The "all_combined" folder includes all the user as ".jsons".<br>The "shuffled_ground_truth_labels.txt" contains the golden truth labels (0 for control and 1 for positive).<br>There are two categories of users: individuals suffering depression and control users. For each user, the collection contains a sequence of writings from that specific user along with the rest of the users that participated in the conversation (in chronological order). This approach allows systems to monitor ongoing interactions and make timely decisions based on the evolution of the conversation.<br>In the dataset, there are two types of instances: Submissions and Comments.<br>Submissions represent the primary posts created by users.
