Epilepsy is a neurological illness caused by abnormal discharge of brain neurons, where epileptic seizure can lead to life-threatening emergencies. By analyzing the encephalogram (EEG) signals of patients with epilepsy, their conditions can be monito...
Epilepsy is the most common neurological disorder in humans. Electroencephalogram is a prevalent tool for diagnosing the epileptic seizure activity in clinical, which provides valuable information for understanding the physiological mechanisms behind...
Hypersynchronous network activity is the defining hallmark of epilepsy and manifests in a wide spectrum of phenomena, of which electrographic activity during seizures is only one extreme. The aim of this study was to differentiate between different t...
Machine learning leverages statistical and computer science principles to develop algorithms capable of improving performance through interpretation of data rather than through explicit instructions. Alongside widespread use in image recognition, lan...
The identification of medical concepts, their attributes and the relations between concepts in a large corpus of Electroencephalography (EEG) reports is a crucial step in the development of an EEG-specific patient cohort retrieval system. However, th...
Racial disparities in the utilization of epilepsy surgery are well documented, but it is unknown whether a natural language processing (NLP) algorithm trained on physician notes would produce biased recommendations for epilepsy presurgical evaluation...
Patients suffering from epileptic seizures are usually treated with medication and/or surgical procedures. However, in more than 30% of cases, medication or surgery does not effectively control seizure activity. A method that predicts the onset of a ...

Epileptic seizures arise from synchronous firing of multiple spatially separated neural masses; therefore, many synchrony measures are used for seizure detection and characterization. However, synchrony measures reflect only the overall interaction s...
BACKGROUND: Finding interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) in the EEG is a part of diagnosing epilepsy. Automated software for annotating EEGs of patients with suspected epilepsy can therefore help with reaching a diagnosis. A large amount of data...
