A Combined Linear & Nonlinear Approach for Classification of Epileptic EEG Signals
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of both linear autoregressive model coefficients and nonlinear measures for classification of EEG signals recorded from healthy subjects and epilepsy patients is investigated. A total of seven nonlinear measures namely the approximate entropy, largest lyapunov exponent, correlation dimension, nonlinear prediction error, hurst exponent, third order autocovariance, asymmetry due to time reversal, are used in this study. The class separability of individual and combined feature sets is measured using Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) algorithm where the multiple features are selected by sequential floating forward search (SFFS) algorithm. The results have shown that the use of combined feature sets provide a better characterization of EEG signals compared to individual features.

Epileptic Seizure Detection in EEG signals Using TQWT and SVM-GOA Classifier
Background: Epilepsy is a Brain disorder disease that affects people's quality of life. If it is diagnosed at an early stage, it will not be spread. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals are used to diagnose epileptic seizures. However, this screening system cannot diagnose epileptic seizure states precisely. Nevertheless, with the help of computer-aided diagnosis systems (CADS), neurologists ca...

Introduction: In this paper, a novel complexity measure is proposed to detect dynamical changes in nonlinear systems using ordinal pattern analysis of time series data taken from the system. Epilepsy is considered as a dynamical change in nonlinear and complex brain system. The ability of the proposed measure for characterizing the normal and epileptic EEG signals when the signal is short or is...
