Abstract

Depression is one of the mental health issues that are responsible for various morbidities if it remains undiagnosed. Previous works that used machine learning to predict depression used mainly qualitative information like socio-economic or socio-demographic data for creating predictive models. But there is a chance of getting biased qualitative data from patients that will hinder any correct prediction. Our goal was to examine if the major form of depression can be predicted with a high accuracy using a patient’s biochemistry profile using Machine Learning. We also examined if minor depression can be predicted for a large portion of patients. The result suggests the method we proposed can be used as the first point of screening for depression especially major depression.
