## Abstract (arXiv)

For the early identification, diagnosis, and treatment of mental health illnesses, the integration of deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) have started playing a significant role. By evaluating complex data from imaging, genetics, and behavioral assessments, these technologies have the potential to improve clinical results significantly. However, they also present unique challenges relating to data integration and ethical issues. The development of ML and DL methods for the early diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues is reviewed in this survey. It examines a range of applications, with a particular emphasis on behavioral assessments, genetic and biomarker analysis, and medical imaging for the diagnosis of diseases like depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Predictive modeling for illness development is further discussed in the review, focusing on the function of risk prediction models and longitudinal investigations. Important discoveries show how ML and DL might improve treatment outcomes and diagnostic accuracy while tackling methodological inconsistency, data integration, and ethical concerns. The study emphasizes the significance of building real-time monitoring systems for individualized treatment, improving data fusion techniques, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Upcoming studies should concentrate on surmounting these obstacles to maximize ML and DL's valuable and moral implementation in mental health services.
