Description

Fu Li and co-authors present a 2026 deep learning system for flagging student mental health risk. University counselling services need earlier warnings, yet most tools use one data type alone. Their model combines counsellor dialogue records with background facts such as grades and financial aid.

The system, called BCL, reads dialogue with a BERT encoder and extracts patterns through a dual-path network. Background variables were trimmed with LASSO selection to keep the model robust. Tested on 600 students across four ordered risk levels, it reached an overall accuracy near three quarters. It caught the highest-risk group well while rarely mislabelling the lowest-risk students.
