The final, formatted version of the article will be published soon.

Collectively, these studies exemplify the transformative potential of machine learning and statistical models in psychiatry. They highlight the importance of leveraging diverse data sources, from neuroimaging and genomics to natural language and behavioral data, to uncover the complex patterns underlying mental disorders. Furthermore, they emphasize the need for explainable and interpretable AI models that can bridge the gap between data-driven insights and clinical practice. As we continue to navigate the challenges of mental health in the modern era, the integration of these advanced analytical techniques holds promise for advancing our understanding, improving diagnostic accuracy, and ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.
