The number of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) patients is rising rapidly these days following the incidence of COVID‐19 pandemic. It is challenging to detect MDD through personal interviews and by observing electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. Hence, an automated MDD detection system developed using...
