Obesity is a serious issue in the modern society since it associates to a significantly reduced quality of life. Current research conducted to explore the obesity-related neurological evidences using electroencephalography (EEG) data are limited to traditional approaches. In this study, we developed a novel machine learning model to identify brain networks of obese females using alpha band functional connectivity features derived from EEG data. An overall classification accuracy of 0.912 is achieved. Our finding suggests that the obese brain is characterized by a dysfunctional network in which the areas that are responsible for processing self-referential information such as energy requirement are impaired.
