AIPSYCH: A Mobile Application-based Artificial Psychiatrist for Predicting Mental Illness and Recovery Suggestions among Students

COVID-19’s outbreak affected and compelled people from all walks of life to self-quarantine in their houses in order to prevent the virus from spreading. As a result of adhering to the exceedingly strict guideline, many people developed mental illnesses. Because the educational institution was closed at the time, students remained at home and practiced self-quarantine. As a result, it is necessary to identify the students who developed mental illnesses at that time. To develop AiPsych, a mobile application-based artificial psychiatrist, we train supervised and deep learning algorithms to predict the mental illness of students during the COVID-19 situation. Our experiment reveals that supervised learning outperforms deep learning, with a 97% accuracy of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) for mental illness…
