SeizureNet: Multi-Spectral Deep Feature Learning for Seizure Type Classification
Automatic classification of epileptic seizure types in electroencephalograms
(EEGs) data can enable more precise diagnosis and efficient management of the
disease. This task is challenging due to factors such as low signal-to-noise
ratios, signal artefacts, high variance in seizure semiology among epileptic
patients, and limited availability of clinical data. To overcome these
challenges, in this paper, we present SeizureNet, a deep learning framework
which learns multi-spectral feature embeddings using an ensemble architecture
for cross-patient seizure type classification. We used the recently released
TUH EEG Seizure Corpus (V1.4.0 and V1.5.2) to evaluate the performance of
SeizureNet. Experiments show that SeizureNet can reach a weighted F1 score of
up to 0.94 for seizure-wise cross validation and 0.59 for patient-wise cross
validation for scalp EEG based multi-class seizure type classification. We also
show that the high-level feature embeddings learnt by SeizureNet considerably
improve the accuracy of smaller networks through knowledge distillation for
applications with low-memory constraints
A Novel Method for Epileptic Seizure Detection Using Coupled Hidden Markov Models
We propose a novel Coupled Hidden Markov Model to detect epileptic seizures
in multichannel electroencephalography (EEG) data. Our model defines a network
of seizure propagation paths to capture both the temporal and spatial evolution
of epileptic activity. To address the intractability introduced by the coupled
interactions, we derive a variational inference procedure to efficiently infer
the seizure evolution from spectral patterns in the EEG data. We validate our
model on EEG aquired under clinical conditions in the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit
of the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Using 5-fold cross validation, we demonstrate
that our model outperforms three baseline approaches which rely on a classical
detection framework. Our model also demonstrates the potential to localize
seizure onset zones in focal epilepsy.Comment: To appear in MICCAI 2018 Proceeding
Classification of Epileptic EEG Signals by Wavelet based CFC
Electroencephalogram, an influential equipment for analyzing humans
activities and recognition of seizure attacks can play a crucial role in
designing accurate systems which can distinguish ictal seizures from regular
brain alertness, since it is the first step towards accomplishing a high
accuracy computer aided diagnosis system (CAD). In this article a novel
approach for classification of ictal signals with wavelet based cross frequency
coupling (CFC) is suggested. After extracting features by wavelet based CFC,
optimal features have been selected by t-test and quadratic discriminant
analysis (QDA) have completed the Classification.Comment: Electroencephalogram; Wavelet Decomposition; Cross Frequency
