Abstract

Mental health problems have become increasingly common these days. One of the major factors
contributing to this drastic health situation is the overwhelming increase in workload. This leads to stress and mood
instability. Due to stress and unstableness of personal mood, assessing and analyzing daily mood is both difficult and
inconvenient, which is a major challenge in mental health care. In this App, we propose a framework for analyzing mood
in daily life. We make use of uses mobile -phone data, his usage, to extract human behavior pattern and assess daily
mood .We interact with user by asking him questions, giving him some suggestions. Our approach helps user to lighten
their mood and feel happy. The proposed design is built on windows platform and uses id3 to analyze behavior. Here we
use Iterative Dichotomize decision tree algorithm that constructs decision tree by working on the data that is provided to
it by the user. It finds optimal solution in which the data set can be classified.
