Core Tip

Core Tip: This study reviews and integrates the methods and models in the clinical practice of computational psychiatry and constructs a complete and mature Artificial Intelligence ecosystem. The ecosystem for computational psychiatry includes data acquisition, preparation, modeling, application, and evaluation. This approach allows researchers to integrate data from a variety of sources to obtain a more complete understanding of mental health conditions. Despite the continuous development and breakthrough of computational psychiatry, it has not yet influenced routine clinical practice and still faces many challenges, such as data availability and quality, biological risks, equity, and data protection.
