Abstract :
Electroencephalogram (EEG) is the most important clinical tool in evaluating patients with epilepsy. However, the EEG definite patterns correlated to various types of epilepsy are still unclear. In this paper, six features of EEG signal are extracted to construct an artificial neural network model of classifying controls and patients with epilepsy. The ROC-score (area under curve) of the model is 88.3%. SD of autocorrelation, Hurst indexes, and periodicity have a good capacity in identifying epilepsy.
