Development of an Artificial Intelligence-Supported Hybrid Data Management Platform for Monitoring Depression and Anxiety Symptoms in the Perinatal Period: Pilot-Scale Study

One of the forces driving science and industry is machine learning, but the proliferation of Big Data necessitates paradigm shifts from conventional approaches in applying machine learning techniques to this massive amount of data with varying velocity. Computers are now capable of accurately diagnosing a variety of medical conditions thanks to the availability of immense healthcare datasets and advancements in machine learning techniques. The study’s primary aim is to identify the most compelling questions on anxiety and depression in pregnant women by extracting features through performance-optimized algorithms. In this way, it is aimed to reach the result in a shorter time with fewer questions. The next goal of this work is to create an instant remote health status prediction system for depression and anxiety in pregnant women based on the Apache Spark Big Data processing engine, which concentrates on using machine learning models on streaming Big Data. In this scalable system, the application receives data from pregnant women to forecast the patient’s health condition. It then applies the Naïve Bayes machine learning algorithm that produces the best results for this dataset with accuracy and precision 90.8% and 81.71% respectively. With the assistance of this big data platform, the time-consuming anxiety and depression detection procedure in a pregnant woman can be replaced with a computer-based technique that works in an instant with a respectable amount of accuracy.
