Abstract

While the published scientific literature is used in a biomedical context such as building gene networks for disease gene discovery, it seems to be an undervalued resource with respect to mental illnesses. It has been rarely explored for the purpose of gaining psychopathology insights. This limits our capability of better understanding the underlying mechanisms of mental disorders. In this paper we describe the psycho-env corpus, which aims at annotating published studies for facilitating knowledge discovery on pathologies of mental diseases. Specifically, this corpus focuses on the correlations between mental diseases and environmental factors. We report the first preliminary work of psycho-env on annotating 20 articles about two mental illnesses (bipolar disorder and depression) and two particular environmental factors - light and sunlight. The corpus is available at https://github.com/KHP-Informatics/psycho-env.
