The paper explores the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) to automatically detect suicidal content in text-based social media posts. The authors propose a novel method for generating pseudo-labels for unlabeled data by prompting LLMs, and fine-tuning traditional classification techniques to enhance label accuracy. They develop an ensemble approach using multiple models such as Qwen2-72B-Instruct, Llama3-8B, Llama3.1-8B, Gemma2-9B, and evaluate their approach on the Suicide Ideation Detection on Social Media Challenge dataset. The results show that the ensemble model improves detection accuracy by 5% points compared to individual models, achieving a weight F1 score of 0.770 on the public test set and 0.731 on the private test set.

The paper uses Large Language Models (LLMs) to find suicidal thoughts in social media posts. This helps people who are struggling to get help early. The authors use special techniques to make the models better at detecting these posts. They tested their approach using a big dataset and found that combining multiple models worked really well, making it easier to identify when someone is having suicidal thoughts.
