This research introduces Agent Mental Clinic (AMC), a self-improving conversational agent system designed to enhance depression diagnosis through simulated dialogues between patient and psychiatrist agents. The AMC system consists of a tertiary memory structure, dialogue control and reflect plugin, and memory sampling module, leveraging the skills reflected by the psychiatrist agent to achieve great accuracy on depression risk and suicide risk diagnosis via conversation. Experimental results demonstrate that the system can be a promising optimization method for aligning LLMs with real-life distribution in specific domains without modifying their weights, even when only a few representative labeled cases are available.

This paper helps create better ways to diagnose depression using computers. It introduces a new type of AI called Agent Mental Clinic (AMC) that can have conversations with people and help diagnose depression. The AMC system uses special structures like memory and control systems to make it more accurate. This means the AI can learn from doctors and other experts, even if there’s only a little information available. It’s a new way to use computers to help diagnose mental health problems.
