Resting-state EEG sex classification using selected brain connectivity representation

Effective analysis of EEG signals for potential clinical applications remains a challenging task. So far, the analysis and conditioning of EEG have largely remained sex-neutral. This paper employs a machine learning approach to explore the evidence of sex effects on EEG signals, and confirms the generality of these effects by achieving successful sex prediction of resting-state EEG signals. We have found that the brain connectivity represented by the coherence between certain sensor channels are good predictors of sex.
