Frequently there are disasters all over the world-fires, earthquakes, or even some unexpected shocking catastrophes. Hence people injured, or even died. Lifesaving actions begin with the initiation of the chain of survival.

Employment and comparison of different Artificial Neural Networks for epilepsy diagnosis from EEG signals.

In this study, it has been intended to analyze Electroencephalography (EEG) signals by Wavelet Transform (WT) for diagnosis of epilepsy, to employ various Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) for the signals' automatic classification. Furthermore, carrying out a performance comparison has been aimed. Three EEG signals have been decomposed into frequency sub bands by WT and the feature vectors have been extracted from these sub bands.
