In this paper, a statistical method of classifying Electroencephalogram(EEG) data for automatic detection of epileptic seizure is carried out using a publicly available scalp EEG database. The classification is carried out to distinguish the seizure segments from the non-seizure ones. The higher order moments (specifically variance) have been calculated in various sub-bands in the wavelet transform domain and utilized as the discriminating feature in the Support Vector Machine(SVM) classifier. The method is tested on 175 hours of continuous EEG data from five patients and on an average, 99% accuracy has been achieved with very high values of sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, on the basis of the figure of merits, for their excellent performance for all the patients, seven channels have been selected for the patient-invariant seizure detection which might help the electroencephalographers reducing their laborious job of monitoring the EEG data from all the channels.
In this paper, a device model that describes the current-voltage characteristics of polymer:fullerene bulk heterojunction solar cell has been developed. Two organic PV cells of two different materials are cascaded together to form a tandem organic solar cell. In the design, PPV is implemented as the top cell and P3HT:PCBM blend is used as bottom cell. The simulation has been carried out using Silvaco ATLAS software. The power curve is also derived. Furthermore, the ideal efficiency and the Fill Factor of the tandem cell have been predicted from the curve. The stability of the model is ensured by introducing a thin buffer layer of ZnO coated on top of the solar cell.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
