Prediction of Anxiety Disorders using Machine Learning Techniques

Anxiety disorders have seen an elevating number since the Covid-19 pandemic. This paper aims at identifying more about the various anxiety disorders using machine learning Techniques. Further, symptoms of the types of anxiety disorders: Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder are also discussed. The datasets used in the paper are collected by researchers from hospitals/organizations/educational institutions mainly through questionnaires and surveys. Some of the many Machine Learning techniques used for prediction of these anxiety disorders include Random Forest, Linear Regression, Support Vector Machine among others. Lastly, the performance metric for the techniques is presented here and henceforth, the result is drawn from this available data followed by the conclusion.
