Project: Decoding Sentiments of Injustice in Chronic Pain: A Natural Language Processing Approach with roBERTa (Dr. Kim and Lab Members)
Project: Decoding Sentiments of Injustice in Chronic Pain: A Natural Language Processing Approach with roBERTa (Dr. Kim and Lab Members)
Effective communication between patients and providers is critical in chronic pain treatment, yet sentiments of injustice often remain unspoken. This project harnesses natural language processing and the RoBERTa model to decode expressions of blame, invalidation, and hopelessness in Reddit chronic pain forums. By identifying these patterns, we aim to bridge gaps in patient-provider communication and develop tools for more empathetic, personalized care.
