Abstract

Major Depression Disorder (MDD) affects people's life and it is a common disorder worldwide. Finding useful diagnostic biomarkers would help clinicians to diagnosis MDD in its early stages. Having automated methods to find biomarkers for MDD is beneficial although it is challenging. In this paper, we investigate deep learning approaches versus functional connectivity-based approach for MDD classification using resting state fMRI data. To reduce data dimension, we have used Smith atlas. We compare several feature extraction methods. Experiments show promising results with connectivity-based approach. Moreover, applying T-test for finding discriminative features effectively improves the performance.
