Simultaneous Suicide Detection for Chinese "Twitter", Sina Weibo

by Xiaolei Huang for Portland State University

Chinese people get more and more pressure from society or family. Some of them feel too upset and commit suicide. During this process, some will post Sina weibo(same as Twitter) to express their emotions. Or even, many people broadcast their suicide! To prevent this terrible situation, I want to build a suicide alert system to save their life. As soon as the system detect the suicide tendency, it will notice psychological associations, then these associations will contact with this person.
