Summary
This study introduces a novel deep-asymmetry method for diagnosing depression using electroencephalogram (EEG) asymmetry. The approach achieved 98.85% accuracy in detecting major depressive disorder, offering a promising tool for objective diagnosis.
Area of Science:
- Neuroscience
- Machine Learning
- Medical Diagnostics
Background:
- Objective diagnosis of depression remains a challenge.
- Current electroencephalogram (EEG) based methods often rely on one-dimensional data and complex feature extraction.
- EEG asymmetry is a recognized biomarker for depression.
