| Summary: | Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder. From the data collected by the Ministry of Public Health, Thailand, it has been reported that more than one million Thai youths (6–12 years) have been diagnosed with ADHD (2012–2018) This disorder is more likely to occur in males (12%) than females (4.2%). If ADHD goes untreated, there might be problems for individuals in the long run. This research aims to design a collaborative knowledge framework for personalised ADHD treatment recommendations. The first objective is to design a framework and develop a screening tool for doctors, parents, and teachers for observing and recording behavioural symptoms in ADHD children. This screening tool is a combination of doctor-verified criteria and the ADHD standardised screening tool (Vanderbilt). The second objective is to introduce practical algorithms for classifying ADHD types and recommending appropriate individual behavioural therapies and activities. We applied and compared four well-known machine-learning methods for classifying ADHD types. The four algorithms include Decision Tree, Naïve Bayes, neural network, and k-nearest neighbour. Based on this experiment, the Decision Tree algorithm yielded the highest average accuracy, which was 99.60%, with F1 scores equal to or greater than 97% for classifying each type of ADHD.
