About the presentation:

"The Algorithms of the Soul: Making Sense of Psychotherapy using ML"

Psychotherapy can greatly improve patients’ mental health. Nevertheless, it is lengthy, costly, and often unsuccessful. Due to the enormous complexity of this practice, most of the raw data in psychotherapy has never been subjected to empirical scrutiny. Left unexamined, psychotherapy is seemingly doomed to remain an impenetrable “black box”. Combining evidence-based research and state-of-the-art technologies, MindSense is the first-ever solution to provide a moment-by-moment codification of the entire conversation made by the patient and therapist during a therapy session. Our proprietary models allow us to translate this data into actionable insights, providing therapists with a powerful tool to augment treatment outcomes.
