Data-based Decision Rules to Personalize Depression Follow-up

Abstract Depression is a common mental illness with complex and heterogeneous progression dynamics. Risk grouping of depression treatment population based on their longitudinal patterns has the potential to enable cost-effective monitoring policy design.
