A new language‑processing tool has been developed to estimate suicide risk from natural language. By analyzing text, the tool can identify individuals at the highest risk. This capability could enable faster and more targeted interventions.

The paper presents a system for the IEEE BigData 2026 Cup on Explainable Suicide Risk Assessment on Social Media. It tackles three tasks—risk-level classification, evidence phrase extraction, and multi-label factor identification—using Qwen2.5-Instruct models adapted with quantized low-rank adaptation (QLoRA) and an answer-masked causal language-model objective. The final system achieved a composite score of 0.7738, with 0.8089 on Task 1 and 0.6919 on Task 2, demonstrating that task‑specific training and tailored aggregation improve performance across the three tasks.
