Enhanced Epileptic Seizure diagnosis using EEG Signals with Support vector machine and Bagging Classifiers

Many approaches have been proposed using Electroencephalogram (EEG) to detect epilepsy seizures in their early stages. Epilepsy seizure is a severe neurological disease. Practitioners continue to rely on manual testing of EEG signals. Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) can effectively deal with this problem. ML can be used to classify EEG signals employing feature extraction techniques. This work focuses on automated detection for epilepsy seizures using ML techniques. Various algorithms are investigated, such as  Bagging, Decision Tree (DT), Adaboost, Support vector machine (SVM), K-nearest neighbors(KNN), Artificial neural network(ANN), Naïve Bayes, and Random Forest (RF) to distinguish injected signals from normal ones with high accuracy. In this work, 54 Discrete wavelet transforms (DWTs) are used for feature extraction, and the similarity distance is applied to identify the most powerful features. The features are then selected to form the features matrix. The matrix is subsequently used to train ML. The proposed approach is evaluated through different metrics such as F-measure, precision, accuracy, and Recall. The experimental results show that the SVM and Bagging classifiers in some data set combinations, outperforming all other classifier

Survey analysis for optimization algorithms applied to electroencephalogram

This paper presents a survey for optimization approaches that analyze and classify Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The automatic analysis of EEG presents a significant challenge due to the high-dimensional data volume. Optimization algorithms seek to achieve better accuracy by selecting practical features and reducing unwanted features. Forty-seven reputable research papers are provided in this work, emphasizing the developed and executed techniques divided into seven groups based on the applied optimization algorithm particle swarm optimization (PSO), ant colony optimization (ACO), artificial bee colony (ABC), grey wolf optimizer (GWO), Bat, Firefly, and other optimizer approaches). The main measures to analyze this paper are accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score assessment. Several datasets have been utilized in the included papers like EEG Bonn University, CHB-MIT, electrocardiography (ECG) dataset, and other datasets. The results have proven that the PSO and GWO algorithms have achieved the highest accuracy rate of around 99% compared with other techniques
