SafeMinds AI
AI powered Depression Detection and mental health assessment platform,which bridges the gap between people and expensive mental health industry.
The problem SafeMinds AI solves
Mental health issues, especially depression, affect millions worldwide, yet access to professional mental health care remains a challenge due to:
High Costs: Therapy and psychiatric consultations are expensive, making them inaccessible to many.
Stigma: Many people hesitate to seek help due to societal judgment.
Limited Availability: Mental health professionals are often overbooked, leading to long waiting periods.
Lack of Awareness: Many individuals struggle to recognize their symptoms, leading to delayed intervention.
Our AI-powered platform bridges this gap by offering early detection and assessment at a low cost, ensuring that more people receive timely intervention
Challenges we ran into
1.Building a High-Accuracy CNN Model
Challenge: Training a CNN model from scratch while ensuring high accuracy was a significant hurdle.
Solution: We experimented with different architectures, optimized hyperparameters, and used data augmentation techniques to improve model performance.
2.Integrating OpenCV and Audio for Sentiment Analysis
Challenge: Combining OpenCV for facial emotion detection with audio sentiment analysis required synchronizing inputs from both modalities.
Solution: We used time-aligned preprocessing and feature extraction techniques to ensure both inputs contributed meaningfully to sentiment classification.
3.Integrating Cloudflare Workers AI for Sentiment Analysis
Challenge: Deploying AI models on Cloudflare Workers AI while maintaining efficiency and scalability.
Solution: We optimized model inference using Cloudflare’s API, ensuring minimal latency while processing real-time sentiment data.
4.Normalizing Scoring Weights
Challenge: Balancing different scoring metrics for sentiment analysis and depression detection.
Solution: We applied statistical normalization techniques, such as Min-Max scaling, to standardize scores across different models.
5.Prompt Engineering for Chatbot Responses
Challenge: Ensuring the chatbot generates natural and human-like responses.
Solution: We iteratively refined prompts and tested various prompt structures to improve coherence, empathy, and contextual understanding in conversations.
