Book Comprehensive Analysis of Swarm Based Classifiers and Bayesian Based Models for Epilepsy Risk Level Classification from EEG Signals

Download or read book Comprehensive Analysis of Swarm Based Classifiers and Bayesian Based Models for Epilepsy Risk Level Classification from EEG Signals written by Harikumar Rajaguru and published by Anchor Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-17 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project presents the performance analysis of Particle swarm optimization (PSO), hybrid PSO and Bayesian classifier to calculate the epileptic risk level from electroencephalogram (EEG) inputs. PSO is an optimization technique which is initialized with a population of random solutions and searches for optima by updating generations. PSO is initialized with a group of random particles (solutions) and then searches for optima by updating generations. Hybrid PSO differs from ordinary PSO by calculating inertia weight to avoid the local minima problem. Bayesian classifier works on the principle of Bayes’ rule in which it is the probability based theorem. The results of PSO, hybrid PSO and Bayesian classifier are calculated and their performance is analyzed using performance index, quality value, cost function and classification rate in calculating the epileptic risk level from EEG.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epilepsy is a common and diverse set of chronic neurological disorders characterized by seizures. It is a paroxysmal behavioral spell generally caused by an excessive disorderly discharge of cortical nerve cells of the brain. Epilepsy is marked by the term “epileptic seizures”. Epileptic seizures result from abnormal, excessive or hyper-synchronous neuronal activity in the brain. About 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, and nearly 80% of epilepsy occurs in developing countries. The most common way to interfere with epilepsy is to analyse the EEG (electroencephalogram) signal which is a non-invasive, multi channel recording of the brain’s electrical activity. It is also essential to classify the risk levels of epilepsy so that the diagnosis can be made easier. This study investigates the possibility of Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) and Continuous GA as a post classifier for detecting and classifying epilepsy of various risk levels from the EEG signals. Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Independent Component Analysis (ICA) are used for dimensionality reduction.

Book KNN Classifier and K Means Clustering for Robust Classification of Epilepsy from EEG Signals  A Detailed Analysis

Download or read book KNN Classifier and K Means Clustering for Robust Classification of Epilepsy from EEG Signals A Detailed Analysis written by Harikumar Rajaguru and published by Anchor Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epilepsy is a chronic disorder, the hallmark of which is recurrent, unprovoked seizures. Many people with epilepsy have more than one type of seizures and may have other symptoms of neurological problems as well. Epilepsy is caused due to sudden recurrent firing of the neurons in the brain. The symptoms are convulsions, dizziness and confusion. One out of every hundred persons experiences a seizure at some time in their lives. It may be confused with other events like strokes or migraines. Unfortunately, the occurrence of an epileptic seizure seems unpredictable and its process still is hardly understood. In India, the number of persons suffering from epilepsy is increasing every year. The complexity involved in the diagnosis and therapy has to be cost effective. In this project, the authors applied an algorithm which is used for a classification of the risk level of epilepsy in epileptic patients from Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. Dimensionality reduction is done on the EEG dataset by applying Power Spectral density. The KNN Classifier and K-Means clustering is implemented on these spectral values to epilepsy risk level detection. The Performance Index (PI) and Quality Value (QV) are calculated for the above methods. A group of twenty patients with known epilepsy findings are used in this study.

Book EEG Signal Analysis and Classification

Download or read book EEG Signal Analysis and Classification written by Siuly Siuly and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-03 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents advanced methodologies in two areas related to electroencephalogram (EEG) signals: detection of epileptic seizures and identification of mental states in brain computer interface (BCI) systems. The proposed methods enable the extraction of this vital information from EEG signals in order to accurately detect abnormalities revealed by the EEG. New methods will relieve the time-consuming and error-prone practices that are currently in use. Common signal processing methodologies include wavelet transformation and Fourier transformation, but these methods are not capable of managing the size of EEG data. Addressing the issue, this book examines new EEG signal analysis approaches with a combination of statistical techniques (e.g. random sampling, optimum allocation) and machine learning methods. The developed methods provide better results than the existing methods. The book also offers applications of the developed methodologies that have been tested on several real-time benchmark databases. This book concludes with thoughts on the future of the field and anticipated research challenges. It gives new direction to the field of analysis and classification of EEG signals through these more efficient methodologies. Researchers and experts will benefit from its suggested improvements to the current computer-aided based diagnostic systems for the precise analysis and management of EEG signals. /div

Book An Epileptic Seizure Detection Method from EEG Signals Based on a Classifier Driven Feature Reduction Technique

Download or read book An Epileptic Seizure Detection Method from EEG Signals Based on a Classifier Driven Feature Reduction Technique written by Raymond N. Kamel and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Epileptic seizure detection can improve the quality of life of epileptic patients, allow for more accurate medication, and minimize the risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). This thesis work aims to develop a robust and stable algorithm for epileptic seizure detection through the classification of EEG signals. To achieve this aim, a methodology is proposed to develop a classifier that can differentiate between the healthy (normal), interictal, and ictal states of EEG signals, while maximizing the classification accuracy and minimizing the computational redundancy. The main pillar upon which this methodology is designed is using a problem-specific classifier-driven feature reduction technique. This technique involves training a bagged trees ensemble that utilizes the complete set of features extracted from the denoised time-domain and time-frequency domain sub-bands of interest. Based on this ensemble, a predictor importance analysis is conducted to reduce the features fed to the classifier to only those with the highest estimates of importance due to their significant contribution to the classification accuracy. A random forest ensemble is finally trained using the reduced features set to classify the involved signals. The University of Bonn EEG dataset was used for testing and validating the proposed methodology through formulating nine 2-class and two 3-class classification problems using its different signal sets. The classification accuracy achieved on the experimented 11 classification problems ranged between 97.15% ℗ł 1.45% and 100.00% ℗ł 0.00%, and the stability of the developed models were assured through running each model 100 times and analyzing their performance metrics. Developing such an algorithm for the real-time classification would minimize the need for the laborious manual classification of the EEG signals and serve as an accurate seizure detection algorithm for the implantable seizure control devices.

Book A Multi tier Distributed Fog based Architecture for Early Prediction of Epileptic Seizures

Download or read book A Multi tier Distributed Fog based Architecture for Early Prediction of Epileptic Seizures written by Huda Diab Abdulgalil and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological problem. With 50 million people living with epilepsy worldwide, about one in 26 people will continue experiencing recurring seizures during their lifetime. Epileptic seizures are characterized by uncontrollable movements and can cause loss of awareness. Despite the optimal use of antiepileptic medications, seizures are still difficult to control due to their sudden and unpredictable nature. Such seizures can put the lives of patients and others at risk. For example, seizure attacks while patients are driving could affect their ability to control a vehicle and could result in injuries to the patients as well as others. Notifying patients before the onset of seizures can enable them to avoid risks and minimize accidents, thus, save their lives. Early and accurate prediction of seizures can play a significant role in improving patients' quality of life and helping doctors to administer medications through providing a historical overview of patient's condition over time. The individual variability and the dynamic disparity in differentiating between the pre-ictal phase (a period before the onset of the seizure) and other seizures phases make the early prediction of seizures a challenging task. Although several research projects have focused on developing a reliable seizure prediction model, numerous challenges still exist and need to be addressed. Most of the existing approaches are not suitable for real-time settings, which requires bio-signals collection and analysis in real-time. Various methods were developed based on the analysis of EEG signals without considering the notification latency and computational cost to support monitoring of multiple patients. Limited approaches were designed based on the analysis of ECG signals. ECG signals can be collected using consumer wearable devices and are suitable for light-weight real-time analysis. Moreover, existing prediction methods were developed based on the analysis of seizure state and ignored the investigation of pre-ictal state. The analysis of the pre-ictal state is essential in the prediction of seizures at an early stage. Therefore, there is a crucial need to design a novel computing model for early prediction of epileptic seizures. This model would greatly assist in improving the patients' quality of lives. This work proposes a multi-tier architecture for early prediction of seizures based on the analysis of two vital signs, namely, Electrocardiography (ECG) and Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The proposed architecture comprises of three tiers: (1) sensing at the first tier, (2) lightweight analysis based on ECG signals at the second tier, and (3) deep analysis based on EEG signals at the third tier. The proposed architecture is developed to leverage the potential of fog computing technology at the second tier for a real-time signal analytics and ubiquitous response. The proposed architecture can enable the early prediction of epileptic seizures, reduce the notification latency, and minimize the energy consumption on real-time data transmissions. Moreover, the proposed architecture is designed to allow for both lightweight and extensive analytics, thus make accurate and reliable decisions. The proposed lightweight model is formulated using the analysis of ECG signals to detect the pre-ictal state. The lightweight model utilizes the Least Squares Support Vector Machines (LS-SVM) classifier, while the proposed extensive analytics model analyzes EEG signals and utilizes Deep Belief Network (DBN) to provide an accurate classification of the patient's state. The performance of the proposed architecture is evaluated in terms of latency minimization and energy consumption in comparison with the cloud. Moreover, the performance of the proposed prediction models is evaluated using three datasets. Various performance metrics were used to investigate the prediction model performance, including: accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and F1-Measure. The results illustrate the merits of the proposed architecture and show significant improvement in the early prediction of seizures in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity.

Book A Comprehensive Analysis on EEG Signal Classification Using Advanced Computational Analysis

Download or read book A Comprehensive Analysis on EEG Signal Classification Using Advanced Computational Analysis written by Kaushik Bhimraj and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: Electroencephalogram (EEG) has been used in a wide array of applications to study mental disorders. Due to its non-invasive and low-cost features, EEG has become a viable instrument in Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI). These BCI systems integrate user's neural features with robotic machines to perform tasks. However, due to EEG signals being highly dynamic in nature, BCI systems are still unstable and prone to unanticipated noise interference. An important application of this technology is to help facilitate the lives of the tetraplegic through assimilating human brain impulses and converting them into mechanical motion. However, BCI systems are remarkably challenging to implement as recorded brain signals can be unreliable and vary in pattern throughout time. In the initial work, a novel classifier structure is proposed to classify different types of imaginary motions (left hand, right hand, and imagination of words starting with the same letter) across multiple sessions using an optimized set of electrodes for each user. The proposed technique uses raw brain signals obtained utilizing 32 electrodes and classifies the imaginary motions using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). To enhance the classification rate and optimize the set of electrodes of each subject, a majority voting system combining a set of simple ANNs is used. This electrode optimization technique achieved classification accuracies of 69.83%, 94.04% and 84.56% respectively for the three subjects considered in this work. In the second work, the signal variations are studied in detail for a large EEG dataset. Using the Independent Component Analysis (ICA) with a dynamic threshold model, noise features were filtered. The data was classified to a high precision of more than 94% using artificial neural networks. A decreased variance in classification validated both, the effectiveness of the proposed dynamic threshold systems and the presence of higher concentrations of noise in data for specific subjects. Using this variance and classification accuracy, subjects were separated into two groups. The lower accuracy group was found to have an increased variance in classification. To confirm these results, a Kaiser windowing technique was used to compute the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for all subjects and a low SNR was obtained for all EEG signals pertaining to the group with the poor data classification. This work not only establishes a direct relationship between high signal variance, low SNR, and poor signal classification but also presents classification results that are significantly higher than the accuracies reported by prior studies for the same EEG user dataset.

Book Seizure Detection with EEG Signals Using the Classification Learner Approach

Download or read book Seizure Detection with EEG Signals Using the Classification Learner Approach written by You Long Wu and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Epilepsy is characterized by unpredictable seizures secondary to electrical abnormality in the brain. Electrical activity in the brain can be monitored by electroencephalogram (EEG). This is currently the most effective and convenient tool for seizure detection. A needed tool in this disease is a model that can detect disease processes. Classification is one of the most used supervised machine learning approaches. In order to train models that are able to "learn" how to classify new observations from examples of labeled input; this research focuses on evaluating the performance of multiple classifiers for seizure detection, by applying their corresponding prediction models to labeled inputs using MATLAB's classification learner application. Many types of classifiers are used in this research such as: decision trees, support vector machines, and logistic regression, amongst others. The result has demonstrated that bagged trees of the ensemble classifiers had the highest prediction accuracy among all classifiers, which could be helpful to other researchers who wish to investigate seizure detection from EEG signals using classification methods. Potentially this could be a useful clinical tool in the future." --
