Abstract
Depression is a widespread and deeply impactful mental health condition that affects millions of individuals globally. Conventional methods face challenges in improving the accuracy and robustness of depression detection. Dragonfly Optimized Piecewise Regression Gradient Convolutional Deep Belief Network (DOPR-GCDBN) model is proposed to enhance the accuracy of depression prediction through sentiment analysis of Twitter social media text data.
Keywords
Depression prediction, Twitter data, Convolutional deep belief network, Pre-processing, Dragonfly optimisation algorithm, Piecewise regression, Stochastic gradient.
