TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - Artificial intelligence-based approaches for suicide prediction: Hope or hype? JO - Asian journal of psychiatry A1 - Menon, Vikas A1 - Vijayakumar, Lakshmi SP - e103728 EP - e103728 VL - 88 IS - N2 - Accurate prediction of suicide risk is important because it allows evidence-based interventions to be targeted to at-risk populations. Conventional approaches to prediction of suicide risk have shown suboptimal accuracy. In this context, artificial intelligence (AI)-based models for suicide prediction, with their ability to handle big data collected through low-burden methods, have gained research traction in the recent past. Preliminary evidence suggests the promise of AI-driven methods for suicide prediction and prevention. These methods may hold particular relevance for India and other low-and-middle-income countries because they may be more feasible, scalable, less stigmatizing, and potentially more resource-effective.
