EEG feature selection using mutual information and support vector machine: A comparative analysis.

The large number of methods for EEG feature extraction demands a good choice for EEG features for every task. This paper compares three subsets of features obtained by tracks extraction method, wavelet transform and fractional Fourier transform. Particularly, we compare the performance of each subset in classification tasks using support vector machines and then we select possible combination of features by feature selection methods based on forward-backward procedure and mutual information as relevance criteria.

New feature extraction approach for epileptic EEG signal detection using time-frequency distributions.

This paper describes a new method to identify seizures in electroencephalogram (EEG) signals using feature extraction in time-frequency distributions (TFDs). Particularly, the method extracts features from the Smoothed Pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution using tracks estimated from the McAulay-Quatieri sinusoidal model. The proposed features are the length, frequency, and energy of the principal track.

New approach in features extraction for EEG signal detection.

This paper describes a new approach in features extraction using time-frequency distributions (TFDs) for detecting epileptic seizures to identify abnormalities in electroencephalogram (EEG). Particularly, the method extracts features using the Smoothed Pseudo Wigner-Ville distribution combined with the McAulay-Quatieri sinusoidal model and identifies abnormal neural discharges. We propose a new feature based on the length of the track that, combined with energy and frequency features, allows to isolate a continuous energy trace from another oscillations when an epileptic seizure is beginning.

Upport vector machines for nonlinear kernel ARMA system identification.

Nonlinear system identification based on support vector machines (SVM) has been usually addressed by means of the standard SVM regression (SVR), which can be seen as an implicit nonlinear autoregressive and moving average (ARMA) model in some reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). The proposal of this letter is twofold. First, the explicit consideration of an ARMA model in an RKHS (SVM-ARMA2K) is proposed.
