Researchers develop way of using machine learning to aid mental health diagnoses ANI | Updated: Feb 24, 2021 09:26 IST
Washington [US], February 24 (ANI): A team of researchers at the University of Birmingham have developed a way of using machine learning to more accurately identify patients with a mix of psychotic and depressive symptoms.
The findings of the research were published in the journal Schizophrenia Bulletin .
Patients with depression or psychosis rarely experience symptoms of purely one or the other illness. Historically, this has meant that mental health clinicians give a diagnosis of a primary illness, but with secondary symptoms. Making an accurate diagnosis is a big challenge for clinicians and diagnoses often do not accurately reflect the complexity of individual experience or indeed neurobiology.
