Hi r/Futurology, cheers for having us!

New research from UNSW PhD candidate, Karen Kusuma has explored machine learning models and their ability to predict future suicidal behaviours and thoughts.

Published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research, Kusuma's research found machine learning models outperformed traditional risk prediction models in predicting suicide-related outcomes, which have traditionally performed poorly.
