Shen Jian is an Assistant Professor and Associate Researcher at Beijing Institute of Technology, with research focus on psychophysiological computing and multimodal modeling. He has innovatively proposed a series of intelligent computing methods, promoting the development of a new "systematic interpretive" paradigm for the diagnosis and treatment of affective disorders. By establishing the correlation between psychological states and physiological/behavioral data, he explores the dynamic evolution patterns and asynchronous association mechanisms of psychological states and physiological/behavioral responses over time, and further effectively develops a multimodal indicator system that depicts the optimal one-to-one mapping relationship between psychological states and physiological/behavioral responses. This provides important theoretical and methodological reserves for the effective identification and large-scale early screening of depressive disorders, and effectively addresses issues such as the scarcity of objective quantitative indicator systems for depression, low recognition accuracy, and poor interpretability. Based on these research achievements, Shen Jian has accumulated over 40 published papers, including those in internationally renowned journals such as IEEE Transactions on Affective Computing, IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health Informatics, IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, and IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, Information Fusion. He serves as a Program Committee Member of ICIC2024, an Editorial Board Member of BMC Psychiatry and Scientific Reports, a reviewer for multiple journals, and a communication review expert for the National Natural Science Foundation of China. As a project leader, he has been approved for 9 projects, including the major national special project, the General Program of the National Natural Science Foundation and the Special Postdoctoral Funding.

Research Directions

  • Interpretable Modeling Methods for Psychophysiological Indicators: Aiming at the problem that clinical objective diagnosis and treatment of depressive disorders lack interpretable quantitative evaluation indicators and models based on electroencephalography (EEG), this research proposes intrinsic feature optimization methods and interpretable modeling methods based on EEG signals, which are used to model the brain neural mechanisms of depressive disorder onset.

  • Collaborative Association Modeling Methods for Multimodal Indicators: Focusing on the problems of insufficient multimodal objective quantitative indicators and unclear collaborative association relationships between modalities in current depressive disorder identification, this research starts from multimodal representations and explores methods for constructing multimodal psychophysiological indicator systems and modeling their collaborative association characteristics.

  • Multimodal Metric-Guided Large Language Model Intervention Method: Addressing issues such as inconsistent efficacy, significant individual variability, and limited applicability in current interventions for depressive disorders, this approach delves into the dose-response relationship between LLM-based CBT regulation and depressive disorders. It aims to establish a novel diagnostic and therapeutic framework that integrates multimodal data modeling techniques with closed-loop negative feedback intervention driven by large models.
