Epileptic seizures are one of the most crucial
neurological disorders, and their early diagnosis will help the
clinicians to provide accurate treatment for the patients. The
electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are widely used for epileptic
seizures detection, which provides specialists with substantial
information about the functioning of the brain. In this paper,
a novel diagnostic procedure using fuzzy theory and deep
learning techniques is introduced. The proposed method is
evaluated on the Bonn University dataset with six classification
combinations and also on the Freiburg dataset. The tunable-
Q wavelet transform (TQWT) is employed to decompose the
EEG signals into different sub-bands. In the feature extraction
step, 13 different fuzzy entropies are calculated from different
sub-bands of TQWT, and their computational complexities are
calculated to help researchers choose the best set for various
tasks. In the following, an autoencoder (AE) with six layers
is employed for dimensionality reduction. Finally, the standard
adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), and also its
variants with grasshopper optimization algorithm (ANFIS-GOA),
particle swarm optimization (ANFIS-PSO), and breeding swarm
optimization (ANFIS-BS) methods are used for classification.
Using our proposed method, ANFIS-BS method has obtained
an accuracy of 99.7
