The paper introduces a Concept-Integrated Transformer (CIT) that uses a pretrained large language model to generate concept abnormality targets with confidence weights, eliminating the need for manual concept annotation. CIT is applied to mobile sensing data from two longitudinal datasets, achieving the highest F1 score on the AFFECT dataset (0.756) and tying for the highest on a PHQ-9 dataset (0.765). The model’s learned concept scores reveal interpretable behavioral and physiological patterns, such as differences in sleep quantity and quality between high and low negative affect groups.

BALMS is a benchmark for evaluating large language model (LLM) agents that analyze longitudinal wearable data to predict mental‑health wellbeing scores and generate evidence‑grounded rationales. It covers three real‑world datasets, two task families (score prediction and rationale generation), and tests five LLM backbones across open‑ and closed‑source paradigms. The study finds that zero‑shot agents rarely beat a simple mean baseline, and while chain‑of‑thought prompting helps reasoning, it does not ensure temporal grounding or numerical accuracy.
The study introduces a clinician‑in‑the‑loop benchmark to assess whether large language models can generate evidence‑grounded Brief Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (B‑HiTOP) item profiles from multimodal data, including passive sensing, ecological momentary assessment, and questionnaires. Using the GLOBEM dataset, the authors create 14,592 participant‑day instances aligned to 29 B‑HiTOP items across five spectra, and evaluate evidence compatibility rather than diagnostic accuracy. Two‑stage prediction improves compatibility for EMA and questionnaire evidence but reduces it for passive sensing and combined evidence, yielding more conservative score distributions across models, spectra, and evidence settings.

The paper investigates on-device language models (ODLMs) for predicting stress in a mobile health context, focusing on privacy-preserving, cloud-independent inference. Using zero‑shot prompting, the authors evaluate ODLMs across multimodal data—objective sensor features and subjective self‑reports—measuring predictive accuracy, latency, and throughput. Results indicate that sensor features slightly outperform self‑reports, and that lightweight sub‑2B models deliver low latency with predictable resource usage, underscoring both the potential and practical limits of ODLMs for mobile mental health.

Depression screening from large-scale behavioral data is challenged by fragmented circadian indicators, limited interpretability, and the lack of intervention-oriented analysis. Existing approaches typically analyze sleep, activity, and social behaviors in isolation, failing to capture their joint circadian structure.
