Background electroencephalography (EEG), recorded with scalp electrodes, in children with electrical status epilepticus during slow-wave sleep (ESES) syndrome and control subjects has been analyzed. We considered 10 ESES patients, all right-handed and aged 3–9 years. The 10 control individuals had the same characteristics of the ESES ones but presented a normal EEG. Recordings were undertaken in the awake and relaxed states with their eyes open. The complexity of background EEG was evaluated using the permutation entropy (PE) and sample entropy (SampEn) in combination with the ANOVA test. It can be seen that the entropy measures of EEG are significantly different between the ESES patients and normal control subjects. Then, a classification framework based on entropy measures and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) classifier is proposed to distinguish ESES and normal EEG signals. The results are promising and a classification accuracy of about 89% is achieved.

Thresholding algorithms segment an image into two parts (foreground and background) by producing a binary version of our initial input. It is a complex procedure (due to the distinctive characteristics of each image) which often constitutes the initial step of other image processing or computer vision applications. Global techniques calculate a single threshold for the whole image while local techniques calculate a different threshold for each pixel based on specific attributes of its local area. In some of our previous work, we introduced some specific fuzzy inclusion and entropy measures which we efficiently managed to use on both global and local thresholding. The general method which we presented was an open and adaptable procedure, it was free of sensitivity or bias parameters and it involved image classification, mathematical functions, a fuzzy symmetrical triangular number and some criteria of choosing between two possible thresholds. Here, we continue this research and try to avoid all these by automatically connecting our measures with the wanted threshold using some Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Using an ANN in image segmentation is not uncommon especially in the domain of medical images. However, our proposition involves the use of an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) which means that all we need is a proper database. It is a simple and immediate method which could provide researchers with an alternative approach to the thresholding problem considering that they probably have at their disposal some appropriate and specialized data.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals based Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is employed to help disabled people to interact better with the environment. EEG signals are recorded through BCI system to translate it to control commands. There are a large body of literature targeting EEG feature extraction and classification for Motor Imagery tasks. Motor imagery task have several features can be extracted to use in classification. However, using more features consume running time and using irrelevant and redundant features affect the performance of the used classifier. This paper is dedicated to extracting the best feature vector for motor imagery task. This work suggests two feature selection methods based on Mutual Information (MI) including Minimum Redundancy Maximal Relevance (MRMR) and maximal Relevance (MaxRel). Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) classifier with Subtractive clustering method is utilized for EEG signals classifications. The suggested methods are applied to BCI Competition III dataset IVa and IVb and BCI Competition II dataset III.

Epilepsy is a disease that attacks the brain and results in seizures due to neurological disorders. The electrical activity of the brain recorded by the EEG signal test, because EEG test can be used to diagnose brain and mental diseases such as epilepsy. This study aims to identify whether a person has epilepsy or not along with the result of accurate, sensitivity, and precision rate using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) method. The FFT is used to transform EEG signals from time-based into frequency-based and continued with feature extraction to take characteristics from each filtering signal using the median, mean, and standard deviations of each EEG signal. The results of the feature extraction used for input on the category process based on characteristics data (classification) using ANFIS. EEG signal data is obtained from epilepsy center online database of Bonn University, German. The results of the EEG signal classification system using ANFIS with two classes (Normal-Epilepsy) states accuracy, sensitivity, and precision of 100%. The classification systems with three class division (Normal-Not Seizure Epilepsy-Epilepsy) resulted in an accuracy of 89.33% sensitivity of 89.37% and precision of 89.33%.
