Classification of Healthy Condition and Depression using functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS)

Depression is a serious social issue where the World Health Organisation (2017) has mentioned that there are estimated over 300 million people whom are suffering from depression that corresponded to 4.4 of the world’s population [1]. Depression also is one of the biggest contribution to suicide deat...
