SUICIDE PREDICTION METHOD AND DEVICE USING SOCIAL DATA

摘要

Disclosed are a method and a device for predicting a number of suicides using social information to thereby predict a suicide rate with high reliability in consideration of factors relative to an actual situation by: reflecting the social information, such as a number of posts relevant to suicides posted by individuals on a social network service and situations of reporting suicides of famous celebrities in order to model a regression analysis model; and applying social indexes, such as a post index and a celebrity suicide index, to the regression analysis model to predict the number of suicides in consideration of not only weather conditions and economic statuses which affect suicides but also the current situation in which the individuals are more frequently exposed to a social atmosphere and affect each other due to the development of social media.
