Abstract

College students are vulnerable to depressive symptoms due to academic, social, and personal pressures, which can impact mental health and academic achievement. Early detection is necessary to prevent this condition from developing into a more serious condition, but conventional methods often lack objectivity. With the development of artificial intelligence, machine learning classification algorithms offer a more accurate approach to recognizing patterns of depressive symptoms. This study compared the performance of several classification algorithms, namely Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbor, Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Naive Bayes, and Support Vector Machine, using a dataset of depressive symptoms in college students. Evaluation was carried out based on accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. The results showed that Logistic Regression achieved the best performance with an accuracy of 95.62%. This suggests that selecting the right algorithm can improve the effectiveness of early depression detection systems in college students and support data-driven mental health efforts.
