• Abstract: Depressive disorder is one of the most prevalent mental illnesses among the global population. However, traditional screening methods require exacting in-person interviews and may fail to provide immediate interventions. In this work, we leverage ubiquitous personal longitudinal Google Search and YouTube engagement logs to detect individuals with depressive disorder. We collected Google Search and YouTube history data and clinical depression evaluation results from $212$ participants ($99$ of them suffered from moderate to severe depressions). We then propose a personalized framework for classifying individuals with and without depression symptoms based on mutual-exciting point process that captures both the temporal and semantic aspects of online activities. Our best model achieved an average F1 score of $0.77 \pm 0.04$ and an AUC ROC of $0.81 \pm 0.02$.

  Major depressive disorder is a prevalent and serious mental health condition that negatively impacts your emotions, thoughts, actions, and overall perception of the world. It is complicated to determine whether a person is depressed due to the symptoms of depression not apparent. People who are depressed express discomfort, sadness and they may speak slowly, trembly, and lose emotion in their voices. In this study, we proposed the Dynamic Convolutional Block Attention Module (Dynamic-CBAM) to utilize with in an Attention-GRU Network to classify the emotions by analyzing the audio signal of humans.
