Today, the main aim of educational institutes is to provide a high level of education to the students. Career selection is one of the most important and quite difficult decisions for learners. It is very important to examine student's capabilities and interests. As stresses of tests, peer and parental pressure on marks scored and job opportunities are some of the factors that lead to mental illness for university students. Determining the factors underlying mental illness from academic success to maintain the proper balance of life is becoming increasingly necessary. This kind of novel machine learning prediction system would help students studying in engineering institutes to address these key challenges So that they will focus on their targeted carrier. In this study, both classification and clustering techniques have been tested on the student academic and family datasets of various engineering students in Delhi, India. Although all the classifier models show comparably high classification performances, the Hybrid neural network is the best-concerning accuracy and precision. In addition, the analysis shows that mental health based on the performance of the students depends on various factors. The findings of this paper indicate the effectiveness and expressiveness of data mining models in performance evaluation. The result proves that the hybrid algorithm combining clustering and classification approaches yields results that are far superior in terms of achieving accuracy in the prediction of academic performance as well as mental wellnesses of the students.

In the realm of analyzing human emotions through Artificial Intelligence (AI), a myriad of challenges persist. From the intricate nuances of emotional subtleties to the broader concerns of ethical considerations, privacy implications, and the ongoing battle against bias, AI faces a complex landscape when venturing into the understanding of human emotions. These challenges underscore the intricate balance required to navigate the human psyche with accuracy. The book, Using Machine Learning to Detect Emotions and Predict Human Psychology, serves as a guide for innovative solutions in the field of emotion detection through AI. It explores facial expression analysis, where AI decodes real-time emotions through subtle cues such as eyebrow movements and micro-expressions. In speech and voice analysis, the book unveils how AI processes vocal nuances to discern emotions, considering elements like tone, pitch, and language intricacies. Additionally, the power of text analysis is of great importance, revealing how AI extracts emotional tones from diverse textual communications. By weaving these systems together, the book offers a holistic solution to the challenges faced by AI in understanding the complex landscape of human emotions.

In the past few years, the Mental Health Crisis in Higher Education has captivated the nation. This may be due in part to high profile cases, shifts in cultural attitudes, or increased demand for treatment. Regardless of the cause, student mental health has now become an epidemic. At MIT, there are over 4,000 consultations, 200 wellbeing checks and 50-70 psychiatric hospitalizations annually. In order to combat this challenge, most institutions invest in services such as mental health counseling or emergency response teams. However, these services are primarily used for students who self-report symptoms or for extreme cases. Unfortunately, of the nearly 3 million college dropouts per year, more than 40% did not report their mental illness. While the institutions have promoted mental health awareness, many students, who suffer from mental illness, remain undiscovered. As a result, this thesis proposes an novel approach -- using artificial intelligence to identify those hidden students. By leveraging non-invasive data found within the institution, machine learning can predict at-risk students before any symptoms occur. By doing so, the institutions could prevent dropouts, leaves of absences and deaths due to mental illness.

Modes and models of learning and instruction have shown a significant shift from yesterday's conventional learning and teaching given this era’s current educational and social contexts. Learners are no longer learning and communicating with human-generated, computed, and mediated—or traditional—learning and instructional practices, paving the way for machine-facilitated communication, learning, and teaching tools. Learning and instruction, communication and information exchange, as well as gathering, coding, analyzing, and synthesizing data have proven to be in need of even more innovative technology-moderated tools. Applications of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in Education focuses on the parameters of remote learning, machine learning, deep learning, and artificial intelligence under 21st-century learning and instructional contexts. Covering topics such as data coding and social networking technology, it is ideal for learners with an interest in the deep learning discipline, educators, educational technologists, instructional designers, and data evaluators, as well as special interest groups (SGIs) in the discipline.

Mental health issues are one of the top reasons for global disability. Three of the top 10 reasons for disability in people between the age of 15 and 44 are mental disorders (World Health Report, 2002). Experiencing a lot of stress or anxiety over a long period of time can be the main cause of mental illness. Stress is an inherent part of life that can have major repercussions for social and emotional functioning, leading to the emergence of mental health disorders. Facial expressions are a vital component of emotions, which people can readily notice and react to even without conscious awareness. The human face is said to be a reflection of one's emotions. The human face and facial expressions are the most powerful ways to convey an emotional state. Most of the previous studies of facial expression recognition and emotion detection focused only on seven primary emotions: happiness, sadness, anger, disgust, fear, surprise, and neutral. Stress and anxiety are the two emotional states that have been recently added to the above-mentioned set of emotions and can be measured. These states can be defined as people's reactions when exposed to pressures and demands that do not match their knowledge and abilities, thus putting their management abilities to the test (Franken, R., 1994). This introductory chapter provides an overview of the concept of stress, including its terminologies, classifications, and effects on organisations and individuals. The chapter is structured into nine sections with the objective of developing a conceptual knowledge of stress and its consequences through extensive, sound, and scientific study. The first section deals with the basic concept of stress in general, various definitions of stress, and its various types and stressors, followed by the second section, which deals with the basic concepts of anxiety, types of anxiety, and its signs and symptoms. The third section deals with the physical, mental, and cognitive effects of stress and anxiety on the human body. The fourth section deals with the concept of stress and anxiety's impact on the human face. The sixth section briefly explains the motivation of the study and the need for a stress prediction system. The seventh section presents the various applications of stress prediction system. The eighth section discusses research questions and research objectives, and finally, the ninth section presents the organization of the thesis, followed by a chapter summary.
