PsyBridge: Hybrid AI framework for multi-dimensional mental health assessment

Researchers propose PsyBridge, a hybrid decision-support framework that integrates PHQ-9, GAD-7, cognitive evaluation, and personality profiling into a unified architecture for mental health risk classification. The system uses a weighted aggregation mechanism to produce interpretable outputs and was evaluated on a semi-synthetic dataset of 500 patient profiles. PsyBridge achieves 0.84 accuracy, outperforming standalone screening tools, with ablation studies confirming the value of multi-dimensional integration. The work targets digital healthcare and telehealth deployment contexts.
