Moral values influence humans in decision-making. Pluralist moral philosophers argue that human morality can be represented by a finite number of moral values, respecting the differences in moral views. Recent advancements in NLP show that language models retain a discernible level of knowledge in deontological ethics and moral norms of society. However, a model which can only decide either right or wrong cannot fully understand the diverse moral perspectives of humans.

We propose a moral sentence embedding space, which can encompass moral differences, through the state-of-the-art Contrastive Learning framework. We evaluate the moral embedding space both intrinsically and extrinsically via three tasks: classification, moral similarity, and visual analysis. We show that our moral embedding space understands the characteristics of each moral value. Our results also highlight that moral rhetoric is seldom explicit in the text, emphasizing the necessity of additional information such as moral labels. ...

In recent years, there has been an increasing number of patients with mental disorders. A conversational agent is being developed to ensure an easier diagnosis based on the chat between a patient and the agent. The objective of this research is to assess how well Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifies text into its corresponding schema, which are the mental states of the patient. In total, three different classifications have been attempted, Binary, Ordinal, and Per-Questionnaire. The experimental result indicated that SVM is possible to classify 2 out of 7 schema modes, but in general, the performance of SVM was not outperforming with a low f1-score. At the end of the research, SVM was compared to Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and k-Nearest-Neighbour (kNN) and it turned out that RNN gives the best performance. One of the limitations affecting the result is the quality of the data set. With more correlated labels and a greater size of the data set, improved results can be expected. ...
