A question many people have asked - how many documents do you need to train a Clinical Test Classification model. Answered by Diana Shamsutdinova. 300 is not enough but 500-600 is pretty good. @KingsIoPPN

What happens when we break down DSM diagnoses into their individual symptoms and rebuild our classification system from the ground up? Do we see familiar DSM constructs, HiTOP dimensions, or something else entirely?
New paper out today! ✨ journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

ALT Title and author information for the paper at the link in the tweet
How do your favorite disorders fare in a data-driven reorganization of the DSM-5?
Find out in this new preprint where we followed the patterns in 14,762 individuals’ symptoms with the goal of overcoming limitations in both the DSM and @HiTOP_system

ALT A representation of how symptoms of some exemplar constructs in the DSM-5 map onto the hierarchical structure we found. On the left are examples of disorders with symptoms that mostly hung together in the data-driven structure (i.e., ‘notably homogenous disorders’) and on the right are examples of disorders with symptoms that scattered throughout the data-driven structure (i.e., ‘notably heterogeneous disorders’).
