Brain tumor detection using scalp eeg with modified Wavelet-ICA and multi layer feed forward neural network.

Use of scalp EEG for the diagnosis of various cerebral disorders is progressively increasing. Though the advanced neuroimaging techniques such as MRI and CT-SCAN still stay as principal confirmative methods for detecting and localizing brain tumors, the development of automated systems for the detection of brain tumors using the scalp EEG has started attracting the researchers all over the world notably since 2000. This is because of two important facts: (i) cheapness and easiness of methods of recording and analyzing the scalp EEG and (ii) lower risk and possible early detection.
