Abstract

OBJECTIVES: An Electroencephalogram (EEG) is the result of co-operative actions performed by brain cells. In other words, it can be defined as the time course of extracellular field potentials that are generated due to the synchronous action of cells. It is widely used for the analysis and diagnosis of several conditions. But this clinical data use to be multi-dimensional, context-dependent, complex, and it causes a concoction of various computing related research challenges. The objective of this study was to develop a computer-aided diagnosis system for epilepsy detection using EEG signals to ease the diagnosis process.
