MentalBERT V5 — Hierarchical V2 (Cardiff DA + Two-Branch + Longformer)

Five-stage cascade for fine-grained mental-health text classification. Iteration 2 of the V5 hierarchical architecture, retrained with anti-overconfidence regularizers and per-source reliability weighting to address the Suicidal precision issues from V1.

Final Test Results (V5 stratified 70/10/20, random_state=42)

Metric	Value
Accuracy	83.51%
F1 macro	0.8396
F1 weighted	0.8325
Sui->Dep (missed crises)	181
Dep->Sui (false alarms)	1075
Total Dep<->Sui bleed	1256
Suicidal precision	0.7064

Architecture

text -> Stage 0 (Cardiff RoBERTa, DA gate, full V5)
        -> Stage 1A (MentalBERT, Suicidal one-vs-all, full V5 minus DA)
              -> Stage 1B (MentalBERT, Normal vs Distress, full V5)
                    -> Stage 2 (MentalBERT, 5-class distress, full V5)
                          -> Stage 3 (Longformer, Dep/Sui rescorer, full V5 Dep+Sui)

V2 training improvements (vs V1)

V1 had inflated Suicidal logits — the Stage 1A threshold had to be calibrated to 0.75 (extreme) to balance precision/recall, indicating systematic overconfidence. V2 addresses this with four targeted changes to Stages 1A and 3 (the safety-critical stages):

No WeightedRandomSampler. V1 stacked sampler-based 50/50 batch balancing on top of asymmetric class weights — over-correction. V2 uses class weights alone.
SUI_BOOST and DEP_SUI_BOOST: 3.0 -> 2.0. Modest safety bias instead of extreme.
label_smoothing on Stages 1A and 3: 0.05 -> 0.10. Direct anti-overconfidence regularizer.
Per-source reliability weighting in the cross-entropy loss. Per the v11 dataset report, label noise concentrates in SWMH (~22% Sui error rate) and kaggle/HF (~16%). Each training sample's loss is multiplied by its source weight: cssrs=1.00, olid=1.00, kaggle_bpd=0.95, kaggle=0.70, huggingface=0.70, swmh=0.50.

Calibrated thresholds: Stage 0 = 0.7, Stage 1A = 0.5, Stage 3 = 0.3.

API Usage - HF Inference Endpoints

After deploying this repo as an Inference Endpoint, your backend calls it like:

python

import requests
ENDPOINT_URL = "https://YOUR-ENDPOINT.endpoints.huggingface.cloud"
HF_TOKEN = "hf_..."
headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {HF_TOKEN}", "Content-Type": "application/json"}

response = requests.post(
    ENDPOINT_URL, headers=headers,
    json={"inputs": "I have been stockpiling pills, just in case I decide it is time."}
)
print(response.json())

Response Schema

json

{
  "label": "Suicidal",
  "stage": "s1a",
  "confidence": 0.87,
  "scores": { "Suicidal": 0.87, "Other": 0.13 }
}

When Stage 3 fires (Stage 2 said Depression but Longformer flips to Suicidal):

json

{
  "label": "Suicidal",
  "stage": "s3",
  "confidence": 0.74,
  "rescored": true,
  "scores": { "Suicidal": 0.74, "Depression": 0.26 }
}

Batch input - pass a list under inputs, get a list back.

Field Reference

Field	Type	Description
`label`	string	One of the 8 classes
`stage`	`s0` / `s1a` / `s1b` / `s2` / `s3`	Which stage decided
