There is a need for more objective techniques to diagnose major psychiatric conditions. These might include computerised methods that analyse speech, language and other aspects of behaviour for an indication of a mental health concern. A series of projects utilises artificial intelligence techniques to determine language dysfunction with a focus on speech and language in schizophrenia, depression and other disorders. The approach has been validated through a comparison with traditional forms of clinical assessment, including the use of questionnaires and rating scales. Potential applications include the use of computerised methods for behavioural analysis to determine psychotropic drug action.
