Epilepsy is the second most persistent neurological condition, endangering the lives of patients. Though there have been many advancements in neurological imaging approaches, the Electroencephalogram (EEG) still remains to be the most effective tool for testing and diagnosing epileptic patients. The visual analytics of EEG signals is a very prolonged process and always open to the subjective judgment of the physicians. The main goal of our study is to build an automatic classifier that can analyze and detect epilepsy from EEG recordings obtained from epileptic and healthy patients, thus helping the neurosurgeons to diagnose epilepsy in a better way. Synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) has been used for balancing the EEG dataset and the Principal component analysis (PCA) technique is applied further, for reducing the EEG signal dimensionality. For data classification, seven machine learning classifiers have been used and after comparing the results the authors conclude that Artificial Neural Network (ANN), outperforms the other classifiers by providing an accuracy of 97.82%.

Classifying brain activities based on electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is one of the important applications of time series discriminant analysis for diagnosing brain disorders. In this paper, we introduce a new method based on the Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) technique for classifying brain activity based on EEG signals via an application into a benchmark dataset for epileptic study with five categories, consisting of 100 EEG recordings per category. The results from the SSA based approach are xcompared with those from discrete wavelet transform before proposing a hybrid SSA and principal component analysis based approach for improving accuracy levels further.

Ocular Artifacts

Electroencephalogram (EEG) is basically a standard method for investigating the brain’s electrical action in diverse psychological and pathological states. Investigation of Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal is a tough task due to the occurrence of different artifacts such as Ocular Artifacts (OA) and Electromyogram. By and large EEG signals falls in the range of DC to 60 Hz and amplitude of 1-5 µv. Ocular artifacts do have the similar statistical properties of EEG signals, often interfere with EEG signal, thereby making the analysis of EEG signals more complex[1]. In this research paper, Principal Component Analysis is employed in denoising the EEG signals. This paper explains up to what level the scaling of principal components have to be done. This paper explains the number of levels of scaling the principal components to get the high quality EEG signal. The work has been carried out on different data sets and later estimated the SNR.

It is known that aging affects neuroplasticity. On the other hand, neuroplasticity can be studied by analyzing the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal. An important challenge in brain research is to study the variations of neuroplasticity during aging for patients suffering from epilepsy. This study investigates the variations of the complexity of EEG signal during aging for patients with epilepsy. For this purpose, we employed fractal dimension as an indicator of process complexity. We classified the subjects in different age groups and computed the fractal dimension of their EEG signals. Our investigations showed that as patients get older, their EEG signal will be more complex. The method of investigation that has been used in this study can be further employed to study the variations of EEG signal in case of other brain disorders during aging.

It is a significant issue to accurately and quickly extract brain evoked potentials under strong noise in the research of brain-computer interface technology. Considering the non-stationary and nonlinearity of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal, the method of wavelet transform is adopted to extract P300 feature from visual, auditory and visual-auditory evoked EEG signal. Firstly, the imperative pretreatment to EEG acquisition signals was performed. Secondly, respectivly obtained approximate and detail coefficients of each layer, by decomposing the pretreated signals for five layers using wavelet transform. Finally, the approximate coefficients of the fifth layer were reconstructed to extract P300 feature. The results have shown that the method can effectively extract the P300 feature under the different visual-auditory stimulation modes and lay a foundation for processing visual-auditory evoked EEG signals under the different mental tasks.

Electroencephalogram Eeg

Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, as it can express the human brain’s activities and reflect awareness, have been widely used in many research and medical equipment to build a noninvasive monitoring index to the depth of anesthesia (DOA). Bispectral (BIS) index monitor is one of the famous and important indicators for anesthesiologists primarily using EEG signals when assessing the DOA. In this study, an attempt is made to build a new indicator using EEG signals to provide a more valuable reference to the DOA for clinical researchers. The EEG signals are collected from patients under anesthetic surgery which are filtered using multivariate empirical mode decomposition (MEMD) method and analyzed using sample entropy (SampEn) analysis. The calculated signals from SampEn are utilized to train an artificial neural network (ANN) model through using expert assessment of consciousness level (EACL) which is assessed by experienced anesthesiologists as the target to train, validate, and test the ANN. The results that are achieved using the proposed system are compared to BIS index. The proposed system results show that it is not only having similar characteristic to BIS index but also more close to experienced anesthesiologists which illustrates the consciousness level and reflects the DOA successfully.

The blinking of an eye can be detected in electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings and can be understood as a useful control signal in some information processing tasks. The detection of a specific pattern associated with the blinking of an eye in real time using EEG signals of a single channel has been analyzed. This study considers both theoretical and practical principles enabling the design and implementation of a system capable of precise real-time detection of eye blinks within the EEG signal. This signal or pattern is subject to considerable scale changes and multiple incidences. In our proposed approach, a new wavelet was designed to improve the detection and localization of the eye blinking signal. The detection of multiple occurrences of the blinking perturbation in the recordings performed in real-time operation is achieved with a window giving a time-limited projection of an ongoing analysis of the sampled EEG signal.

scholarly journals EEG Signal Discrimination using Non-linear Dynamics in the EMD Domain S. M. Shafiul Alam,S. M. Shafiul Alam,Aurangozeb, and Syed TarekShahriar Abstract—An EMD-chaos based approach is proposed todiscriminate EEG signals corresponding to healthy persons,and epileptic patients during seizure-free intervals and seizureattacks. An electroencephalogram (EEG) is first empiricallydecomposed to intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). The nonlineardynamics of these IMFs are quantified in terms of the largestLyapunov exponent (LLE) and correlation dimension (CD).This chaotic analysis in EMD domain is applied to a large groupof EEG signals corresponding to healthy persons as well asepileptic patients (both with and without seizure attacks). It isshown that the values of the obtained LLE and CD exhibitfeatures by which EEG for seizure attacks can be clearlydistinguished from other EEG signals in the EMD domain.Thus, the proposed approach may aid researchers in developingeffective techniques to predict seizure activities. Index Terms—Electroencephalogram (EEG), empiricalmode decomposition (EMD), largest Lyapunov exponent (LLE),correlation dimension (CD), epileptic seizures.

Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia, and is well known for its affect on memory loss and other intellectual abilities. The Electroencephalogram (EEG) has been used as a diagnosis tool for dementia for several decades. The main objective of this work was to develop an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to classify EEG signals between AD patients and control subjects. For this purpose, two different methodologies and variations were used. The Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) was applied to one of the methodologies and the Wavelet Transform (WT) was applied to the other methodology. The studied features of the EEG signals were the Relative Power in conventional EEG bands and their associated Spectral Ratios (r1, r2, r3, and r4). The best classification was performed by the ANN using the WT Biorthogonal 3.5 with AROC of 0.97, Sensitivity of 92.1%, Specificity of 90.8%, and 91.5% of Accuracy.

Motion sickness (MS) is a common experience of travelers. To provide insights into brain dynamics associated with MS, this study recruited 19 subjects to participate in an electroencephalogram (EEG) experiment in a virtual-reality driving environment. When riding on consecutive winding roads, subjects experienced postural instability and sensory conflict between visual and vestibular stimuli. Meanwhile, subjects rated their level of MS on a six-point scale. Independent component analysis (ICA) was used to separate the filtered EEG signals into maximally temporally independent components (ICs). Then, reduced logarithmic spectra of ICs of interest, using principal component analysis, were decomposed by ICA again to find spectrally fixed and temporally independent modulators (IMs). Results demonstrated that a higher degree of MS accompanied increased activation of alpha ([Formula: see text]) and gamma ([Formula: see text]) IMs across remote-independent brain processes, covering motor, parietal and occipital areas. This co-modulatory spectral change in alpha and gamma bands revealed the neurophysiological demand to regulate conflicts among multi-modal sensory systems during MS.
