A novel approach using an embedded LSTM
scheme for depression detection achieved an
accuracy of 90%, thereby reinforcing the application
of deep learning methods in mental health diagnosis
(Colasanti, M., et.al.,2020). Other studies also focus
on the ability to analyse user behaviour during the
global pandemic by fusing LSTM and CNN models,
and these studies show an accuracy of up to 88% in
detecting depressive behaviours from social media
data (Stratton, C. W., et.al.,2020).
Limitations in terms of very large and diversified
datasets for appropriate model training exist, as well
as a risk of overfitting when dealing with more
complex architecture. Future studies might
concentrate on model fine-tuning and analysis of
multimodal methods for better accuracy of detection.
The suggested techniques are well-qualified for being
used in screening for mental conditions.

Figure 6 - Here is the final bar chart comparing
CNN and CNN-LSTM models for depression
detection based on key performance metrics. It
highlights that CNN-LSTM achieves higher
accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score but requires
more training time. This visually reinforces CNN-
LSTM's superiority in performance despite the
increased computational cost.
7 CONCLUSIONS
A hybrid CNN-LSTM significantly outperforms a
traditional model of CNN in detecting depression
using EEG signals by using deep learning models.
Hybrid models gave 92% accuracy compared to
standalone CNN, which was 85%, and also the F1-
score was 0.91 compared to 0.87. Furthermore, the
hybrid model has a standard deviation of 2.1%, which
means more consistent performance. Although CNN
models progressively improve, they are less accurate
and flexible compared to the hybrid CNN-LSTM.
Optimizations in the future will have to concentrate
on computational speed for real-time clinical
workflows.
