The use of computer aided diagnosis systems for disease identifiscation, based on signal processing, image processing and video processing terminologies is common due to emerging technologies in medical field. The detection of epilepsy seizures using EEG recordings is done by different signal processing techniques. To reduce the disability caused by the uncertainty of the occurrence of seizures, a recording system which shall result accurate and early detection of seizure with quick warning is greatly desired. To optimize the performance of EEG based epilepsy seizures detection, in this work we are presenting a method based on two key algorithms. Here, we propose unique algorithm based on SWT (Stationary Wavelet Transform), for easier seizure analysis process, along with improved performance of the application of seizure detection algorithms. Then, we propose the algorithm for feature extraction that makes use of Higher Order Statistics of the coefficients that are calculated using Wavelet Packet Decomposition (WPD).This helps in improving the epilepsy seizures detection performance. The proposed methods helps to improve the overall efficiency and robustness of EEG based epilepsy seizures detection system.
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.
