Abstract

We compare the performance of a smart phone based state and state change detection system to self-assessment and show that the automatic detection is much closer to the objective psychiatric diagnosis. Our work is based on a large, real life dataset collected with 9 real patients with a total of 800 days of data. It consists of smart phone sensor data, a daily self-assessment questionnaire filled out by the patients and is validated by standardized psychiatric scale tests.
