Abstract

Analysis of EEG (Electroencephalography) for the detection of interictal activity amidst of artefacts for supporting the diagnosis of epilepsy is a time-consuming process that requires high expertise and experienced neurologist. The objective of the work is automated identification interictal activity in order to assist neurologists and also reduce the time consumed in visual inspection. For this work, four cases distinguishing interictal from a controlled activity are considered from the Bonn database. Non-linear properties from the complete signal such as correlation dimensions and properties such as approximate entropy, sample entropy and fuzzy approximate entropy from the specific sub-bands of frequency range A5 (0–2.7 Hz), D5 (2.71–5.4 Hz), D4 (5.4–10.8 Hz), D3 (10.85–21.7 Hz), and D2 (21.7–43.4 Hz) are used. Backpropagation neural network is used as a classifier. Performance parameters accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity are calculated. Ten-fold cross method is used as a validation method. For case 1, case 2, case 3, and case 4, the highest accuracy of 99.9%, 99%, 98.5%, and 99% has been achieved, respectively. The problem of interictal identification activity still remains unmapped to some extent this work focuses on the same and in this work we have achieved good performance measures in context to the same.
