Lifestyle Analysis via a Corpus of Disease-Fighting Weblogs

In recent years, the population of pre-diabetics in Japan has been increasing year by year. Type 2 diabetes is a type of lifestyle-related disease that can be prevented to a certain extent by correcting lifestyle habits. However, by the time we realize that there is a problem with our lifestyle, it may be too late. Therefore, early detection of risk factors for lifestyle-related diseases is important. In this study, we collected the blogs of lifestyle-related disease fighters, set up multiple keyword categories that are considered to be related to risk factors, and constructed a corpus of disease fighting blogs with labels for each category. The results of the evaluation experiments show that our proposed method can be applied to a wide range of topics. As a result of evaluation experiments, our proposed method achieves categorization of keywords and sentences with higher accuracy than the simple method.
