Prediction of brain sex from EEG: using large-scale heterogeneous dataset for developing a highly accurate and interpretable ML model.

This study presents a comprehensive examination of sex-related differences in resting-state electroencephalogram (EEG) data, leveraging two different types of machine learning models to predict an individual's sex. We utilized data from the Two Decades-Brainclinics Research Archive for Insights in Neurophysiology (TDBRAIN) EEG study, affirming that gender prediction can be attained with noteworthy accuracy. The best performing model achieved an accuracy of 85% and an ROC AUC of 89%, surpassing all prior benchmarks set using EEG data and rivaling the top-tier results derived from fMRI studies.

Predicting age from resting-state scalp EEG signals with deep convolutional neural networks on TD-brain dataset.

Introduction: Brain age prediction has been shown to be clinically relevant, with errors in its prediction associated with various psychiatric and neurological conditions. While the prediction from structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging data has been feasible with high accuracy, whether the same results can be achieved with electroencephalography is unclear.

Methods: The current study aimed to create a new deep learning solution for brain age prediction using raw resting-state scalp EEG.
