Automated seizure detection using limited-channel EEG and non-linear dimension reduction.

Electroencephalography (EEG) is an essential component in evaluation of epilepsy. However, full-channel EEG signals recorded from 18 to 23 electrodes on the scalp is neither wearable nor computationally effective. This paper presents advantages of both channel selection and nonlinear dimension reduction for accurate automatic seizure detection.

Multi-Biosignal Analysis for Epileptic Seizure Monitoring.

Persons who suffer from intractable seizures are safer if attended when seizures strike. Consequently, there is a need for wearable devices capable of detecting both convulsive and nonconvulsive seizures in everyday life. We have developed a three-stage seizure detection methodology based on 339 h of data (26 seizures) collected from 10 patients in an epilepsy monitoring unit.
