The application of deep learning classifiers to resting-state electroencephalography (rs-EEG) data has become increasingly common. However, relative to studies using traditional machine learning methods and extracted features, deep learning methods are less explainable. A growing number of studies have presented explainability approaches for rs-EEG deep learning classifiers. However, to our knowledge, no approaches give insight into spatio-spectral interactions (i.e., how spectral activity in one channel may interact with activity in other channels). In this study, we combine gradient and perturbation-based explainability approaches to give insight into spatio-spectral interactions in rs-EEG deep learning classifiers for the first time. We present the approach within the context of major depressive disorder (MDD) diagnosis identifying differences in frontal {delta} activity and reduced interactions between frontal electrodes and other electrodes. Our approach provides novel insights and represents a significant step forward for the field of explainable EEG classification.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
