Abstract

Electroencephalogram (EEG) comprises valuable details related to the different physiological state of the brain. In this paper, a framework is offered for detecting the epileptic seizures from EEG data recorded from normal subjects and epileptic patients. This framework is based on a discrete wavelet transform (DWT) analysis of EEG signals using linear and nonlinear classifiers. The performance of the different combinations of two-class epilepsy detection is studied using Support Vector Machine (SVM) and neural network analysis (NNA) classifiers for the derived statistical features from DWT. In this new approach first parse EEG signals to sub-bands in different categories with the help of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and then we derive statistical features such as Mean, Median, Standard Deviation, Kurtosis, Entropy, Skewness for each sub-band. These features, extracted from details and approximation coefficients of DWT sub-bands, are used as input to Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The classification is based on reducing the feature dimension using PCA and deriving the Support Vector Machine (SVM) and neural network analysis (NNA). In classification of normal and epileptic, results obtained exhibited an accuracy of 100% by applying NNA and 99% by SVM it has been found that the computation time of NNA classifier is lesser than SVM to provide 100% accuracy.
