Abstract
Today social media became a communication line among people to share their happiness, sadness, and anger with their end-users. It is necessary to know people's emotions are very important to identify depressed people from their messages. Early depression detection helps to save people's lives and other dangerous mental diseases. There are many intelligent algorithms for predicting depression with high accuracy, but they lack the definition of such cases. Several machine learning methods help to identify depressed people. But the accuracy of existing methods was not satisfactory. To overcome this issue, the deep learning method is used in the proposed method for depression detection. In this paper, a novel Deep Learning Multi-Aspect Depression Detection with Hierarchical Atten-tion Network (MDHAN) is used for classifying the depression data. Initially, the Twitter data was preprocessed by tokenization, punctuation mark removal, stop word removal, stemming, and lemmatization. The Adaptive Particle and grey Wolf optimization methods are used for feature selection. The MDHAN classifies the Twitter data and predicts the depressed and non-depressed users. Finally, the proposed method is compared with existing methods such as Convolutional Neur-al Network (CNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Minimum Description Length (MDL), and MDHAN. The suggested MDH-PWO architecture gains 99.86% accuracy, more significant than frequency-based deep learning models, with a lower false-positive rate. The experimental result shows that the proposed method achieves better accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-measure. It also mini-mizes the execution time.
