The explosive growth in popularity of social networking leads to the problematic usage. An increasing number network mental disorders (SNMDs), such as Cyber-Relationship Addiction, Information Overload, and Net Compulsion, have been recently noted. Symptoms these are usually observed passively today, resulting delayed clinical intervention. In this paper, we argue that mining online behavior provides an opportunity actively identify SNMDs at early stage. It is challenging detect because status cannot be directly from activity logs. Our approach, new innovative practice SNMD detection, does not rely on self-revealing those factors via questionnaires Psychology. Instead, propose a machine learning framework, namely, Social Network Mental Disorder Detection (SNMDD), exploits features extracted data accurately potential cases SNMDs. We also exploit multi-source SNMDD SNMD-based Tensor Model (STM) improve accuracy. To increase scalability STM, further efficiency with performance guarantee. framework evaluated user study 3,126 users. conduct feature analysis, apply large-scale datasets analyze characteristics three types. results manifest promising for identifying users
