Predicting the Outcome of rTMS Depression Therapy using EEG Signals and CNN
arXiv:2607. 22776v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non invasive therapy for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).
The study introduces two fusion techniques—montage and blending—to combine EEG-derived time‑frequency images for predicting response to repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) in depression. Using a lightweight custom CNN, the authors evaluated the methods on two datasets (15 and 46 patients) under both segment‑level and subject‑disjoint cross‑validation. While segment‑level validation yielded high accuracies (up to 99.90 % on the primary dataset), subject‑disjoint validation showed poor performance, with AUC values ranging from 0.31 to 0.54 and a best subject‑level result of 0.874 ± 0.183 AUC.

The paper presents a transformer-based framework for detecting schizophrenia from EEG signals. It converts preprocessed EEG recordings into spectrograms via Short-Time Fourier Transform and classifies them using both traditional machine learning algorithms and deep learning models, including CNN-Transformer hybrids. Subject-level data partitioning ensures reliable evaluation, yielding an AUC-ROC of 88.41% for the CNN-Transformer model and 92.88% for the CNN + Squeeze and Excitation + Transformer model on an independent test set.
