Abstract: According to World Health Organisation(WHO), most prevailing mental sickness and leading evidence of disability is Depression. In India Depression is much more prevalent in women of all age groups. Eventhough effectual treatment is noted for Depression, it is not reaching the maximum number of sufferers in both wealthy and pathetic countries. In this respect, many scientific discipline and researchers have been employed to develop Machine Learning models to determine level of Depression. This paper presents background knowledge on depression and useage of machine learning and also review past studies that apply machine learning for determine depression with their merits and demerits.
