Abstract :
In this paper, we used Recurrence Quantification Analysis (RQA) in order to study pre-epileptic characteristics in rat´s EEG recordings. Four adult rats were used to collect epileptic EEG data in an experiment of animal model of epilepsy. Three RQA measures, recurrence rate, determinism, and entropy were calculated from EEG recordings from rats. A moving average filter was used to identify the decreasing trend in pre-epileptic dynamics which will be useful early detection of seizures.
