According to UNICEF, one in three children in the world uses the Internet. The Internet for children is a means of communication, a source of information and a place for entertainment. But the technology has a downside: children can encounter dangerous content or bullying on the Internet (cyberbullying). According to a study by the Foxford School of Online Education, one in two children has experienced cyberbullying. However, about 39% of respondents did not tell their parents about this.
A team of students of the Moscow Aviation Institute has developed a service to identify psychological disorders in children "Eliza: keeping an eye on children online". Eliza analyzes the content that a child shares on social networks, such as Instagram, Vkontakte, TikTok. The neural network analyzes textual information, photos, music and video to determine which dangerous communities a child is in, to identify behavioral deviations and depressive moods (the program detects depression with an accuracy of up to 95%).
Based on the results of the analysis, Eliza offers possible solutions: from simple ones (talking to a child, giving instructions on how to behave on the Internet, using ways of moderating undesirable content) to consulting a specialist.
