The study introduces a novel approach to detecting stress in code-mixed texts for Dravidian languages. It focuses on developing robust detection models by using uncleaned text as a benchmark and incorporating diverse preprocessing techniques. The researchers used the Random Forest algorithm with three textual representations: TF-IDF, Uni-grams of words, and a composite of (1+2+3)-Grams of characters. The approach achieved good performance for both linguistic categories, surpassing results from more complex techniques like FastText and Transformer models. This highlights the potential benefits of using uncleaned data and emphasizes the challenges in classifying code-mixed texts for stress detection.

Stress is a common feeling that can affect mental well-being. To help identify when someone might be stressed, researchers developed a new way to analyze text messages from people who speak Dravidian languages like Tamil or Telugu. They used two special datasets with examples of text messages in these languages. The team found that using uncleaned text helped them develop better stress-detection models than more complicated techniques like FastText and Transformer models. This shows that using real-life, imperfect data can lead to better results.
