Session description
Mental health problems have posed a serious threat to the global economy with losses amounting to 1.3 trillion US dollars (USD) in 2010 and $1.6 trillion in 2019. This has resulted in serious productivity losses that can trigger an estimated expense of $6 trillion per year by 2030. This talk brings to the forefront how contextual knowledge from knowledge graphs, in the form of textual corpus, eventualities, and contextual relations, can help to link eventualities to decipher the relation between food, biochemicals, and mental illness. In addition, we deep dive into some working models of graph neural networks using Neo4j to understand and learn its role in predicting disease biomarkers, characterising disease processes, and classifying mental diseases. The talk also brings in causal factors behind mental health disease and how Neo4j helps bring in causal factors to reduce these contributing factors, which can lower depression and anxiety. The talk concludes by emphasising the impact on the advancement of precision medicine through the use of knowledge graphs.
