PsychiatryNLPKit.analysis.paragraph_level_perplexity(paragraph_generative_tokens, generative_model, sections=None, manage_lifecycle=True)[source]

Generative perplexity for full paragraphs.

Notes:

Theoretical basis - Perplexity can be computed both at the sentence and paragraph levels (Alqahtani et al., 2022). High perplexity predicts delusion and unusual thought content, as reflected by the total PANSS scores (He et al., 2024).

Args:
paragraph_generative_tokens: Dict from

TextData.paragraph_generative_tokens. Maps section names to token dicts with input_ids and attention_mask.

generative_model: HFGenerativeLLM instance. Must be loaded unless

manage_lifecycle is True.

sections: Sections to process. None processes all sections in the dict. manage_lifecycle: If True (default), load and unload the model

internally. Set to False when the caller manages the lifecycle.

Returns:

Dict mapping section names to a dict with key "paragraph_level_perplexity".
