In collaboration with the Ministry of Public Health, the Thai Health Promotion Foundation and the medicine and engineering faculties at Chulalongkorn University launched DMind, an application that features a deep-learning AI to diagnose people with depression.
According to Chulalongkorn Hospital, it is estimated that 1.5 million Thai people suffer from depression and it causes 4,000 deaths each year. Moreover, 53,000 people attempt suicide every year. However, accessing mental health services in Thailand is difficult due to staffing shortages and stigma associated with mental health disorders.
